As Canada's CTV News reported, "The federal government has announced new rules for medical marijuana users that will allow patients to grow their own at home. The new regulations, which will replace the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations, also include other changes such as stricter labelling requirements for dried pot and cannabis oils." The nation's new Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations come into effect nationwide August 24th, less than two weeks from now. Down south in the States, of course, marijuana consumption and enjoyment remains federally illegal, on par with heroin and meth production. Every 42 seconds to 1 minute, another American is arrested for marijuana possession.
