BAD TRIP ALL AROUND
Re: "Bad seeds spoil Ottawa's medicinal marijuana crop," May 8.
It took the government 15 months and $5.8 million of taxpayers' money to
produce and harvest 1,800 kilos of marijuana in the underground mine at
Flin Flon, Man. A crop of marijuana from seed only takes four to five months.
The government crop was harvested and stored for one month; now, it will be
disposed of. Yet, the government is approving new medical marijuana
licences, and medical users still have no supply. A patient must be
approved by a doctor and then the request is sent to a guy in a suit in
Ottawa for final approval. Patients still have no access to a clean,
medical-grade marijuana, and must involve themselves with the black market
or a Compassion Club for supply.
Non-pot supporters should enjoy hearing what the government is doing with
their money.
