The second class refugees are feeling the sting of JT and his crew of fluffers as they focus on the big shiny escapade that is the Syrian "Maybe refugee" party...

Canada’s other refugees: 26,000 arrive annually without fanfare or an official welcome

Are you high? Actual Canadians on disability don't get that much to LIVE on, let alone just for food.
My neighbours are on disability. They get a whopping $1670/mo total for the two of them and their rent is $900/mo which is cheap around here. That leaves them a grand total of $760/mo for food, transportation and various sundries.

But I guess these particular refugees deserve to live and eat better than disabled Canadians.

That logic makes you a bad conbot.

Actually, the math has been done on this. It costs pretty much the same to produce 1 cigarette (2/3 of a gram of tobacco) as it does to produce one gram of weed. If they taxed it at 5X the rate they do for tobacco, an ounce of weed would sell for anywhere from 3-4 times LESS than current street prices, or around $80. Smokers, both recreational and medicinal would be happy as hell, the govt would see more money than it has in years from tobacco, and the black market for it while not eliminated, would be seriously curtailed.

I pay little more than $80/oz, if I pay at all. Why would I buy govt weed at all?

Even the pro legalize, sell at the LCBO, crowed are predicting costs close to $400/$500 an oz. on finished products.

The 'kitchen' should be able to process it into 'lollipops' if that is what the users want, $10/gram. The law can get what they want by getting a dye in the sucker so your mouth would be the same color as the strength of the sucker. (muffin if the fiber is included). Sell the residue to a hemp farmer so his crop is always at 0% THC.

The Gov weed is so the buyer knows the strength of the product before said purchase. That being said the red tape involved just for hemp is enough to make the land as valuable as if you had subdivided it and put in the utilities. Medical pot is grown under lock and key so the two will never mix unless you grow hemp and can take the thc alone out of the plant (during the retting process it could soak out the thc alone and that would be the only time the place would not be hemp alone. Med producers could get that liquid to spray on the plants that needed a little boost so the profits were a tad higher than what the spray cost.)
You might as well by an island surrounded by a swamp before you could skate through all the restrictions on 'location of the field' and no fences or security eats into your budget. Granted it takes 3x as much land to get one field but you also start out with 30 sq mi of area and the water could supply the heat needed to make some areas frost free year around without a big gas bill if you wanted to grow medical at the same time.

So I'm reading a CBC article, cuz you know, pedigree. When low and behold I find out that the health benefits for refugees reinstated by the Liberals, only apply to Syrian refugees.

Not only are other refugees ignored, even slighted, but they find themselves on the second tier of a two tier refugee system, created by the clown prince selfie and his merry band of twats.

That's real change for ya, what a joke.

Some who rant from the gallery do not understand most Canadians don't care
how much meals cost or the cost for hotels they approve of what Trudeau is
doing. Those who keep raising flack are only hurting the conservative cause.
People voted to bring refugees to Canada, People voted to run deficit funding
People Voted to rid us of Mr. Harper.
People voted for something other than what the conservatives were offering so
I would think they would find ways to be more relevant to the wants of Canadians
but instead they keep ranting on the virtues of failed policy from a public perspective.
