thejazz97 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Medical marijuana patients will now be able to consume marijuana — and not just smoke it — as well as use other extracts and derivatives, the Supreme Court of Canada ruled today. The ruling expands the definition of medical marijuana beyond the "dried" form. The country's highest court found the current restriction to dried marijuana violates the right to liberty and security "in a manner that is arbitrary and hence is not in accord with the principles of fundamental justice." Restricting medical access to marijuana to a dried form has now been declared "null and void." The decision upholds earlier rulings by lower courts in British Columbia.

etsen3 Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Didn't realize patients were restricted to smoking it in the first place. Seems counterproductive since smoking is worse for your lungs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chalky Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 Matter of time until we finally smarten up and legalize it... We are on the cusp. If we can ouster Harper and the Cons this year it may happen sooner than later. It will happen in our lifetime I bet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say somewhat decent odds it happens this decade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.DirtyDangles Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 I still doubt legalization ever happens. Decriminalization would be the most likely scenario....only really when the crown cannot afford to police the bigger issues. Alcohol on the other hand now that should be illegal ....wait what ?

Stefan Posted June 11, 2015 Share Posted June 11, 2015 You guys are weird. It'll be legal within the next few years. "Marijuana has never gone through the regulatory approval process at Health Canada, which of course, requires a rigorous safety review and clinical trials with scientific evidence." Health Canada. What a joke. The same agency that allows aspartame and high fructose corn syrup to be in anything. Aspartame caused migraines for my dad for years and years and years and years. It seems to me health Canada doesn't see what's best for its citizens, rather what's best for their wallets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say it'll happen within the next 10 years or sooner. If it's already happening in the States, Canada can't be too far behind, especially as more young people start voting.
