    Another Plant For Healing like many others, when it us used correctly (Extraction of its Oil). Its being suppressed for such reason. Ex: Rick Simpson, run from the cure.

    thanks for that WhiteFeather..... I have two friends fighting cancer right now. One at the start of his journey and very interested in alternative healing and the other having gone the surgery/chemo/radiation route and being told "sorry, nothing more we can do for you" is trying on her own now to do something alternative....of course this is always better before the chemo has ravaged the body but where there is life there is hope........as for weed, I find the stuff today to be totally different that the stuff we had in the 70s......and I dont personally like it ......its like everything else, food, water, air they have ****ed with it

    From memory:

    In Canada, a new federal law implemented last year (2014) revoked the license of over 4,000 individuals for the production and sale of 'medicinal' marijuana.

    A vacuum resulted, which no doubt has driven many underground into illegal production, in interest by big business. One overture was by a friend of the government, who was granted a permit and is beginning operations soon. The government has 'invited' certain particular individuals to consider starting up operations, citing lucrative returns on investment.

    This is the state of the war on marijuana in this country. Thanks to the current government (whom I won't give the satisfaction of naming) and their cronies, we are now more restricted than ever (three home grown plants or more and you are considered a trafficker!) - with harsher fines and penalties (longer jail terms).

    Agreed -- it is absolutely insane. One can see how hard the government is trying to create a single revenue stream from various operations for taxing purposes - so they make the penalties for some guy trying to grow some even for entirely medical purposes, so harsh (like in some cases more harsh the sexually assaulting a child), the reason is obviously to protect the potential grab in taxes that they see with medical marijuana. They really don't care about people's "medicine" at all, and their actions prove it.

    What do we expect from the PM that gave ISIS $5 million of our hard earned tax dollars to buy weapons to kill civilians and even our soldiers with - considering he also lied about what our troops where doing over there?

    Just to open peoples' eyes:

    One average hemp plant grown in earth and properly trimmed (topped and kept under say four feet high) in a garden hidden by tomato plants or other thick growing vegetation will yield between 1/2 and 1 pound of high quality product. In the early 2000s a quarter pound of the highest quality hemp commanded $900! So an average plant, if grown for profit will net a return of well over $2000.

    That is just dirt grown plants. If using hydroponics, the yield if far greater in far less time!

    It must be due to the Tribes that live in this area, I'm in Reno, NV right now for work and I heard a commercial on the radio, it was a public service message for tobacco, the catch phrase was, "use not abuse," and it really stuck with me. I've meditated extensively while using cannabis and its a much different experience then playing Grand Theft Auto or kicking it with your friends. Moderation in all things...
