WHERE DO THOSE WHO NEED IT GO?

It took the government 15 months and a $5.7 million of taxpayer money 
to produce and harvest 1,800 kilos of marijuana in the underground 
mine at Flin Flon, Man. Harvested and stored for a month, they 
announced last week it will be disposed of.

On the other hand, they are approving new medical marijuana licences 
while existing medical marijuana users still have no supply or access 
to clean, medical-grade marijuana.

Most must involve themselves with the black market or a Compassion 
Club for supply, which is a direct violation of their medical 
exemption and the law.

The way things are going, it looks like they won't have a supply any 
time soon, and the anti-marijuana camp should enjoy hearing what the 
government is doing with their money.
