medical You can legally grow marijuana if you're sick enough, or name a person to grow it for you, but you can't legally get the seeds under federal regulations announced Wednesday.

The new rules, to take effect at the end of the month, will make Canada the first country in the world with a regulatory system governing medicinal marijuana. But they don't address the key issue of supply. The federal system will allow people with certain serious medical conditions to possess pot and cultivate it, or designate a person to cultivate it for them. To qualify they must have a doctor's endorsement.

as usual...
our dummies in WARshington threw a fly in the
ointment..petty idiots...

(worst case daydream):
if there is a war on canada by the U.S.over legalization,
the U.S. soldiers are liable to be pushed INTO canada by the
pressure from the REAR...

actually, getting confiscated canadian seeds will probably
give the PPS researchers some VERY good genetic lines to
choose from...too bad people had to get busted to supply
those seeds...
