The Government of Canada, is asking Canadians to submit their views on how to go about the 'Legalization and Regulation of Marijuana' http://healthycanadians.gc.ca/health-system-systeme-sante/consultations/legalization-marijuana-legalisation/index-eng.php
As you probably already know, i don't support regulation, as it's a Plant, and a herb. The PDF document discussion paper from Health Canada even states that 'A marijuana overdose is not fatal'. So WHY should it even be regulated at all?? It seems silly that it's even in the CDSA (Controlled Drugs and Substances Act) in the 1st place. I'm calling for the removal of cannabis from the CDSA, and let the provinces, first nations, territories do what they like.
I've gone through, and posted each of the 21 Questions that are asked, and made them as blog posts. (as well as put it in the Document, and made an Evernote post about it. From now until August 20th (or so) I'll submit my version earlier than the 29th, i'm asking for your input on this, so my answers will be what more people like. I'm sending a copy of my answers to all MPs and Senators, so perhaps my views could be noticed more than most, so i want to make them as clear as possable.
Here's the Questions and links, please comment below each blog post with your views/answers so to best help everyone.
Thanks!
