Legal Marijuana Sales in Future?

To Gixxer ...

The very detailed "Advice to Professionals" has already been posted twice on other posts. Once under "Health Canada, Mayo Clinic and the Canadian Cancer Society" string and once under the "Sensible BC" heading.

The Health Canada article itself gives over one hundred leads to medical foundations for the position they have taken regarding the legalization of marijuana.

A little more realistic and credible than The Huffing Post and similar often quoted articles on the various marijuana threads.

Is it really that hard for you to post your sources? When asked you always deflect and derail the topic by telling others to seek the information your speaking of in other threads. Why even start a new thread like this? What page in the other threads are your sources/links posted on?

Run "Health Canada Marijuana Advice to Professionals"

It will bring up a number of suggested articles.

Click on Consumer Information - Cannabis (Marijuana, Marihuana)

In the second Paragraph of the Health Canada article an underlined thread entitled "Information for Health Care Professionals: Cannabis (Marijuana, Marihuana) and the Cannabinoids".

Click on that underlined string. Should you choose to read it you will have IMO as good a grasp on the presently identified truth about the pros and cons of medical marijuana in Canada as anyone posting on this string.

I have no idea why the previously noted strings no longer work. I assume that Health Canada has rewritten and reposted the information so that it is consistent with the Marijuana sales system that was to have come into effect April 1.

The science behind the medicinal qualities of cannabis is undeniable at this point, so what makes HC realistic and credible at all on this subject?

To Passion4Truth ...

I know you did not even try to read the data posted by Health Canada or, like Gixxer, you would have known that the previous string no longer worked. Good luck with your "I know everything about marijuana without having to read anything about it" approach to knowledge.

Don't need science to know what pot does to you. LOL

Why bother addressing the facts in any post when all you need to do is belittle the poster, eh Donald?

I did try your link and whether it works or not has no bearing on your suggestion that HC is realistic and credible on the subject of cannabis when in fact they deny it's medicinal qualities.

[Donald G]

To Passion4Truth ...

Neither Health Canada, The Canadian Cancer Society nor The Mayo Clinic DENY that there is a medical quality to marijuana regarding the medical conditions mentioned in their articles. What they are afraid of is the present opportunity for lawyers and their clients to sue the government (taxpayers) every time something goes wrong.

That is why the "informed consent" approach is being used to make marijuana available.

If you bothered to read their postings you would not be making the statements you are making that are completely false

[Passion4Truth]

Dried marijuana is not an approved drug or medicine in Canada. The Government of Canada does not endorse the use of marijuana, but the courts have required reasonable access to a legal source of marijuana when authorized by a physician.

You may be of the opinion that you do not need science to become informed regarding the beneficial and harmful effects of the 400 odd chemicals and compounds in marijuana.

It must be one of those "informed by magic things" that delusional people benefit (suffer?) from I guess.

[Donald G]

To Passion4Truth ...

Instead of quoting the line (from the first paragraph) that Health Canada put into their latest article in an effort to thwart class action lawsuits you might try reading and digesting the other eighty odd pages of data in their article regarding the favourable use of marijuana for a long list of medical purposes.

The factual knowledge is out there if you want to put aside the Huffing Post and the many opinionated articles by similarly "self educated" people, you may be surprised at what additional FACTUAL information you may pick up. That is if you are actually interested in learning the present truth about medical uses for marijuana.

[Passion4Truth]

But there is science Donald. Medicinal qualities of these cannabinoids are fact, yet the only reason HC allows patients to have access to it is due to a precedent set in court.

And the only one informed by "magic things" is you, Donald. You and your THC/CBD ratio being the most important be all end all of cannabis when research on cannabinoids and terpenes is yet in it's infancy.

The man who consistently told medical scientists what they should think rides again. Coming soon to a Legal Marijuana Sales establishment near you. Adult fiction.
