Judge Reserves Decision on Marijuana Request

Posted by CN Staff on May 14, 2002 at 17:16:48 PT By Dave Rogers, The Ottawa Citizen   Source: Ottawa Citizen   The Federal Court of Canada yesterday reserved its decision in the case of a Hawkesbury hepatitis C patient who asked for permission to grow more medicinal marijuana plants to control his pain and muscle spasms. Marc Paquette argued that Health Canada's medicinal marijuana regulations prevented him from getting the drugs he needs. The government allowed Mr. Paquette to grow 25 plants at home until his permit expired in March, but he argued he needs better quality marijuana, hashish or hash oil to relieve his pain.
