Coming six weeks after the federal government introduced a bill decriminalizing possession of small amounts of marijuana and only days after it approved a trial "safe injection site" in Vancouver for intravenous drug users, the marijuana plan was one more sign that Ottawa is moving in a very different direction on drug policy from the Bush administration.” Visit: http://www.cannabis.net/medical-marijuana/index.html     CBS News - Canada Gets Baked.

Seven participating pain clinics across Canada are now enrolling patients for this study.

Positive effects are claimed for ailments such as cancer, AIDS, and glaucoma. AIDS can cause a loss of appetite known as "wasting syndrome", which can lead to drastic weight loss and weakness. Chemotherapy used in the treatment of cancer causes nausea resulting in an inability to keep down food. Marijuana's healing nature for these two illnesses is a result of its ability to increase a person's appetite as well as relieving nausea, allowing a patient to regain weight. Marijuana reportedly helps glaucoma patients by reducing intraocular pressure that can cause damage to the eye.

THE CASE FOR MEDICAL MARIJUANA "Basically, what I do is, I cause trouble.  That's my function.  If you cause enough trouble eventually you effect change." Meet Alan Young.  Last summer the Osgoode Hall law professor launched a constitutional challenge against marijuana laws on behalf of Chris Clay, owner of a London, Ont., store called Hemp Nation.  Clay, whose merchandise included marijuana plants, was charged with trafficking and cultivating a narcotic.  While Young's client was found guilty, Ontario Court Justice John McCart was tolerant, handing Clay a relatively modest $750 fine and three years probation.  In his judgement, McCart said, "as it is commonly used, occasionally, cannabis presents only minor.or subtle risks to the health of the individual." This spring Young will represent Lynn Harichy, a multiple sclerosis patient charged with possession after lighting a marijuana joint in front of a London police station.

Sure, we have great skiing in the Rockies, some of the best hunting and fishing in the world, and large cities where you can still safely go for a walk at night, but will visitors increase their frequency and longevity of their visits for yet another reason?
