Happy Canada Day!

Today we visit with Philippe Lucas from the Vancouver Island Compassion Society.  He fills us in on their lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of the Health Canada medical marijuana program, and explans the history of Ottawa’s reluctance to get involved with medical marijuana.

Aaron Smith from the Marijuana Policy Project joins us from Fresno, California.  He’s promoting a screening of the documentary “Waiting to Inhale” near Fresno in an effort to educate the public and policymakers.  Fresno is considering how to adopt the state-mandated ID card system for medical marijuana patients.

The screening is free and hill be held at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Fresno at 2672 E. Alluvial Ave., Clovis, CA.  The date is next Monday, July 7th, at 7pm, and following the screening is a panel discussion.

Also, you get to hear my spiced-up rendition of my ode to the DEA’s 35th birthday today.

So, it’s Canada Day, eh?  Enjoy your NORML Daily Audio Stash!
