    Health Canada demands marijuana smokers pay up in advance

    Health Canada is getting tough with patients who use government-certified medical marijuana, demanding full payment in advance before shipping the weed. The move, effective Nov. 30, is designed to halt the rising number of accounts in arrears -- and force more patients to pay off old debts that now total more than $1.2 million.

    Will New Hampshire Become the 14th Medical Marijuana State?

    Earlier this year Governor John Lynch vetoed a medical marijuana bill that would have made New Hampshire the 14th state to legalize cannabis for medicinal purposes. This Wednesday, state lawmakers have an opportunity to override that veto and pass the bill, establishing “three nonprofit ‘compassion centers’ to dispense 2 ounces of marijuana every 10 days to severely ill patients … The state would license the centers and issue identification cards.”

    Propaganda Alert: 'Medical marijuana' is a Trojan horse

    I have no objection to letting AIDS patients and other truly desperately ill people smoke marijuana if it makes them feel better. I have no objection to the administration of THC, pot’s active ingredient, in properly tested and dosed pharmaceuticals. What I do object to, strongly, is the claim that smoked marijuana is some sort of wonder cure with a multiplicity of proven, but officially repressed, therapeutic uses.

    N.H. Lawmakers Look to Override Medical Marijuana Veto

    New Hampshire lawmakers will take up a medical marijuana bill this week. Earlier this year Gov. John Lynch vetoed the bill, which would make New Hampshire the fourteenth state to legalize medical marijuana for severely ill people. He cited concerns about cultivation and distribution of the drug. On Wednesday lawmakers will look to override that veto. The House may have the two-thirds support needed for the override but Senate support is less certain.

    It's time to end cannabis prohibition

    So what if members of the OPP’s Organized Crime Enforcement Bureau Team 3 Central North Drug Unit “were able to locate and eradicate 50 marijuana plots”? What difference will it make? Last year’s police harvest didn’t stop this year’s crop and this year’s police harvest won’t stop next year’s crop. The recent outdoor “marijuana eradication” efforts by the police are glaring examples of the futility of prohibition.

    NY Times: Good Sense on Medical Marijuana

    The federal government should not be harassing sick people and their caregivers. Attorney General Eric Holder Jr. has made the right decision, calling off prosecutions of patients who use marijuana for medical purposes or those who distribute it to them — provided they comply with state laws.

    U.S. should go further on marijuana

    The Justice Department has finally taken a giant step toward much needed and lacking sensibility on the issue of medical marijuana ("Justice Shifts Course on Medical Marijuana Prosecutions", Oct. 20). For far too long, our federal government has stepped far outside its proper authority by ignoring state laws on the books regarding this plant. By enforcing this illogical prohibition rather than legalizing and regulating marijuana, the federal government not only disrespects proper state authority but also allows the dangerous Mexican drug cartels to continue their operations.

    WIll NYC Mayor Bloomberg Go To Pot?

    President Barack Obama's directive telling the Feds to back off of medical marijuana users is one of his most progressive moves since being elected. The announcement reversing a Bush era policy of pursuing cases against pot smokers was met with general approval in the press. I was particularly happy to see that Bloomberg.com ran a story with this sympathetic opening:

    Obama protects some medical users from prosecution

    s it enough to protect medical patients from federal prosecution in states with medical laws? I don't think so. Not when medical users in MA and other states without medical laws will still be prosecuted. If you know that going after medical users is not a good policy then why do it at all?
