COMMONS BACKS POT LAW
The federal government is nearer permitting the use of marijuana for
medical purposes. A Bloq motion urging the
legalization of pot for medical reasons passed last night, with a few
amendments. The motion calls on the government to "take steps
immediately" to develop clinical trials, guidelines for use and a safe
supply of marijuana for people who need it for medical reasons.
