The fight of big business and corporations to find a way to profit from basically a weed that anyone can grow by throwing a couple of seeds over the shoulders borderlines on ridiculousness.

Government seems to like it in the hands of organized crime. That way they can keep their law enforcement budgets high and their jails full.

In the hands of big business and government a simple weed with medical properties is highly frustrating because the capitalistic system demands that they make profit from it.

Back in the early 80s when my dad was dying of terminal cancer the medical community had him loaded down with drugs.and the only thing that gave him actual relief without brutal side effects was marijuana.

And he felt so guilty about taking it

There already exists a fine distribution and marketing sector in Canada for the product and it is far better quality than the government approved junk. It's cannabis,not marijuwanna. They just will not drop the Mexican word for ditch weed.

Since Loblaw is now associated with Shoppers you won't have to worry about making 2 "trips". You can get your weed, right with the groceries. You won't have any trouble getting your teens come grocery shopping with you
