yes i would like to be there

think we’re going to have to work on this plan of getting patient witnesses to the appeal.

I imagine your lawyer has already done so, but be careful to review the case law concerning suspensions of declarations of constitutional invalidity. There is a very legitimate argument floating around that the Ontario Courts have been applying this constitutional remedy, in a most unconstitutional manner with regards to the medical marijuana context. If the Ontario Court of Appeal once again suspends a declaration of invalidity, this decision should be immediately appealed to the Supreme Court, independent of any other issue.

Lol and i thought i couldnt wait till march. But ye take your time 1 win 10 years from now is better than a loss every year. GO FREEDOM

I’ve waited over three years to get the ruling, while on bail…We’re good to go May 7 & 8 day after Toronto Global Marijuana March.

How will Harpers new omnibus bill effect the outcome of your case? It seems like there is a race to have it passed before your case comes up. If omnibus bill passes, which it will since they have a majority, I believe the MMAR proposed changes will go through,as well. Therefore, the outcome of your case will not help any patients who would choose to grow thier own. Nobody but MMAR approved licensed growers will be allowed to grow. How can patients afford this?

The omnibus bill does not have an effect. Unfortunately for Harper he has to listen to the courts.

so its not happening march 7th or 8th ?

Correct may 7 & 8 are new dates

SERIOUSLY? You guys have had over a year to work on this, and your STILL postponing it? So that what, the judge can be changed to someone who’s more against it then the current judge? A YEAR FOR GOD SAKES.

High Jamie,

We didn’t have a year. The prosecutor submitted a factum about at the start of the new year. We than begin to work on retorting their argument. Quickly realizing our goal of going to court in March just wasn’t doable. It’s a great deal of work and we want to get it correct. You should note it took me over three years to get the first ruling. I had to wait three years, a few weeks for you isn’t such a bad thing. Thanks for the feedback! MM

Matt, after 8 years i finally got my mmar. my my daughter who is 17 has not. people are leery because she is under age. health canada says there are no age limits but to the doctors there clearly are. my daughter is before the courts because she got caught at school buying. the prosecutor refuses to believe its a med case and we have to go back tomorrow to try to convince the judge. if we cant, she will have a criminal record ontop of all the rest of her problems. its very stressful since this is the first year of 3 she has even been able to be successful at school. im not sure if we can help you but if theres anything we can do just ask.
