Medicinal pot user denounces expected Conservative anti-drug plan

OTTAWA - Advocates of decriminalizing marijuana are calling the anticipated federal anti-drug strategy "reefer madness."

Ottawa is expected to announce a strategy this week to combat illicit drug use. Health Minister Tony Clement has suggested the $64-million plan will incorporate treatment and prevention programs, stiffer penalties for illegal drug use, and a crackdown on smuggling at the border.

Christine Lowe, who holds a federal licence to smoke marijuana to relieve symptoms of epilepsy, calls the Conservative plan a culture war.

And she warns it will cause more harm than good.

Lowe points to a 2002 Senate committee report on drugs, which suggested that prohibition-style criminal laws don't deter drug use or reduce crime.

"Christine Lowe, who holds a federal license to smoke marijuana..."

I didn't know there were federal licenses for medical marijuana.

For a short while, perhaps. If they manage to cut back the flow of cannabis coming in or out of Canada it won't last. The smugglers are always sharper than those that try to catch them.
