MARIJUANA RULING IS A GREAT DISAPPOINTMENT

Re: 'Medical pot rule change is an 'outrage': Advocate (Daily News, May 27)

This new policy is a disappointment to 93% of Canadians who support 
medicinal uses for marijuana.

Medicinal uses for marijuana has been documented for 5,000 years 
[Shen-Nung text from China dated 2800 B.C.]. Not that many drugs have 
that history.

It is very disappointing that Health Canada chooses to appeal and 
fight every case separately. The next thing you know our prime 
minister will toss you in the slammer for smoking a joint.
