A great thanks to the cannabis community and to Dana Larsen, of SensibleBC who played a big part to get this petition text to be the best it can be. It's now only been 5 days to reach 5,000 signatures (where on Friday it reached 3,000 signatures.)
It's being shared by lots of people on twitter & Facebook and around the internet and on news articles.
But the e-petition is not all that we are doing to make our voices heard. Across the Country we are having PAPER petitions available at MPs Offices, so then they can present them to Parliament. With multiple MPs submitting the petitions, we will make a big impact.
Having hundreds of paper signatures, and thousands of digital signatures on the e-petition we can sent a Message to the Government of Canada that we want to end prohibition!
In 2000, the the Liberal Party tried to end prohibition... but took too long for it. So now, with this new Liberal Government with Prime minister Justin Trudeau... after 100 DAYS #first100 cannabis is still not legalized!
@JustinTrudeau It's 2016 and we have now passed 3,000 signatures! Please sign & share. https://t.co/HZHBaBvATp pic.twitter.com/OyLaEIaY43— Sam Vekemans (@acrosscanada) February 12, 2016
