I love your website. It is very informative. I have added it to my favorites. Thanks for making this website.

Seems our Guestbook has gone down again in the last few weeks. Sorry for the inconveience. I know I signed three times without it showing up - very frustrating... ;-P So, my latest... I just got back from the Cannabis Liberation Event in Halifax, Nova Scotia and that was awesome! Many many thanx and lots of love to Michael Patriquin for his wonderful hospitality and incredible cookies... ;-D We must have had 3-400 people come through our area and buy tickets for our raffles etc. that day. GREAT turnout. Steady group of about 100 hung out all day... Really good to see such amazing support from all across this beautiful Country of ours as this went on in over 40 Cities World Wide and is still in progress this next week or so... We were interviewed by Canadian Press for Newsprint and Radio and then the Interviews continued all afternoon from there... We even made top news at 6 & 11 pm on CTV's Atlantic Televison (ATV)one of Canada's leading networks - what a great day! Also, my Sativex Blog has been discontinued. In my own personal Clinical Trial, I found it to be insufficient for my excruciating pain and other associated problems from chronic progressive Multiple Sclerosis. I reported this to my Specialist yesterday at my Yearly appointment. Seems I am going down hill but not as fast as I thought. Raw Marijuana, Salmon Oil, Multi vitamins and Evening Primrose Oil are SERIOUSLY helping me... ;-) That's about it for now... Take Care of yourselves... Love and a Squish, Alison xx Alison Myrden <alisonmyrden@cogeco.ca> Ontario Canada - Thursday, September 15, 2005 at 07:42:50 (PDT) Hi, 2 all, Here is a blurb under "Weird But True" section ,from the N.Y. Post, dated Fri, Aug 25th, 2005: The opera a'int over 'til the fat lady gets high. Members of a German opera company have been smoking marijuana onstage during a production of "The Yellow Princess", and encourage the audience to do the same - claiming artistic license protects everybody from drug laws. "It's a test to see what we can get away with", admitted Bernhard Glocksin, artistic director of Neukoeliner Opera House in Berlin. THAXT <THAXT7@aol.com> - Saturday, August 27, 2005 at 08:40:08 (PDT) I'm a Canadian Ganja Man,and this is my ganja stand! I'll fight to the finish,till the lies do diminish,of the drug war imposed by the man! The governments told us all,they'd knock us against a wall! They said if you are a user of pot you're a loser! But that's not the truth at all! Soon the governments plan,under our scrutiny could not withstand! Their plans were dissembled so we assembled a plan that could work for us all! Then we all just thought,if we could use medical pot, they could call us a user but never a loser! Canadians won't tolerate that! They could call us a user but never a loser, The Canadian Constitution won't tolerate that! Hell Canabians would never tolerate that! tokes2ya:)-Chummy MP of Canada MP of Nova Scotia MUMM.ca Chummy Anthony <chummy_m13@hotmail.com> Windsor, Nova Scotia CANADA - Saturday, August 20, 2005 at 14:26:44 (PDT) SMOKE WEED EVERYDAY tessa <tessawirth_1@hotmail.com> New Hamburg, Ontario Canada - Thursday, August 18, 2005 at 22:47:36 (PDT) Nice site... I totally agree with you... Marajuana( I dont know how to spell right.. so ima say pot),pot, should be used, agian, for medicinial use.It has many good uses. It's not bad for you... Ive been smoking pot since I was 10... and now im 13....Yes... This is coming from the mind of a minor.I hope you read this... I love pot. It should be used rightfully,not abused,as many people do,as I,myself do.I don't know why pot is Illegal.. If they want kids to stop, maybe they should make it legal in Canada... Less kids would want to do it, it would ruin the fun. I,might have had second thoughts.I don't know.If the government advertised the good effects, and always telling people, "Dont do this,or that, dont smoke pot,its bad for you", less kids would do it for fun...Well...I sorta got off topic... Well...good bye all...

Below is my Blog of my personal clinical trial... ******************************************************** Alison's Sativex Blog...continued... August 14, 2005 For those of you following this very unofficial and I'm sure quite controversial issue of Sativex, the marijuana medicine coming to market in Canada recently, here goes my latest. I am apparently the first person in the country to receive this medication on Prescription and have had quite the trip! I started using approximately 5 sprays of Sativex a day beginning July 1st, until receiving a very interesting phone call from a reporter from Conneticut in and around the 3rd of August. This Reporter who shall remain nameless, sat in on the Clinical Trials that Sativex was running in Britain and found that people like me with constant, chronic pain needed and often used, over THIRTY - 3 ZERO - sprays a day for ANY relief. This really didn't come as a big surprise to me as I was not noticing any difference in my health at five sprays, twice a day. Now I know why. Continuing on my journey, I am now utilizing more medicine in a shorter period of time. This is getting VERY expensive... At $125.00 plus dispensing fee for fifty one sprays, it certainly adds up. I am hoping to find SOME relief from this medication and am hoping to increase my number of sprays per day once I can find more people to foot the Bill . So far, an annoymous donar has given me enough money to pay for my Sativex to last for the next month or so. Beeaaeautiful... ;-) At least this way I can find out for sure if it is for me... I am probably NOT the perfect person for this trial as I am such a constant,unbelievable need, but I want to give it a fair shot. This may be the most incredible medication for the right person, it is after all, still Cannabis.. maybe I just need that one strain again...? Who knows...??? Wonder if we ever will... I am now taking a daily regime of over 15 sprays a day and will talk to my Docs about going up further in the next week when I return from the City this weekend from my LEAP gig, for the National Black Police Officers Education and Training Conference. We should rattle a few hard edged souls here... ;-D Will continue on the path I am on, taking Sativex daily along with my other medications like morphine AND raw smoked Cannabis to see if I get ANY relief. It's been a really rough week so far with the stress of all of these upcoming events. I have a violent pain in my bottom lip that has been hanging around for over a week, morning to nite. Things can get overwhelming at times for sure... ;-P .. ahh.. breathe... phew. Until my next Blog... take care of yourselves and PLEASE - plant a seed for Peace. Love and a Squish, Alison xx Alison Myrden <alisonmyrden@cogeco.ca> Ontario Canada - Sunday, August 14, 2005 at 14:43:59 (PDT) Thanks so very much for taking your time to create this very useful and informative site.

WE shall never forget or disrespect Lynn or her memory. We are in the midst of redoing our Website and the "Memorial Page" is one of the pages yet to be finished. We have not now, nor will we ever forget Lynn, Donny, Juanita, Jane, Alison and others who have so bravely and selflessly passed into the next realm without us in this lovingly close marijuana movement.

Love and a squish, Alison xx ******************************************************** THE US GOVERNMENT HAS INVADED CANADA!!!! AND THEY MAY COME AFTER YOU!! While many of you don't realize it now, Friday July 29th, 2005, will go down in history as one of the most important days in Canada. The US government had Canadian law enforcement arrest 3 Canadian citizens in their homeland, and has ordered the extradition of these Canadian citizens so that they can face the American injustice system and possible life imprisonment for doing business that has been tolerated by the Canadian government for almost a decade. When one Canadian citizen is threatened with extradition to the U.S.A. or in this case, three Canadian citizens, ALL Canadian citizens are threatened. WE AS CANADIANS CANNOT ALLOW THE AMERICAN GOVERNMENT TO FORCE US OUT OF OUR HOMELAND AND INTO THEIR PRISONS!!!! The American WAR ON DRUGS has devastated American society and cost billions of dollars. WE CANNOT ALLOW THEIR WAR MACHINE TO CROSS OUR BORDERS AND DESTROY OUR SOCIETY! Marijuana is NOT a gateway drug. Marijuana does NOT put millions of kids into treatment, THE AMERICAN WAR ON DRUGS DOES. Marijuana is a benign substance that causes less harm than tobacco and alcohol. Most Canadians know this, as does the Canadian government. THE AMERICAN WAR ON DRUGS DESTROYS LIVES AND SOCIETIES. WE CANNOT ALLOW THEM TO COME TO CANADA AND DESTROY OUR LIVES AND SOCIETY!!! THIS IS NOT A DRUG ISSUE, IT IS A SOVEREIGNTY ISSUE! PLEASE DO YOUR PART AS A CANADIAN BY CALLING, WRITING AND VISITING YOUR LOCAL OFFICIALS, LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES, PROVINICIAL AND FEDERAL REPRESENTATIVES, AND MEDIA OUTLETS. THIS IS A GROSS VIOLATION OF CANADIAN SOVEREIGNTY, AND WE THE PEOPLE CANNOT ALLOW OUR RIGHTS TO BE STRIPPED!!!

Tim Meehan just captured Kirk Touksaw , (two of the Activists in this Country), on CHED in Edmonton tonight at midnight our time... Show is around a half hour or so... just missed the beginning I think but it is EXCELLENT!

The US definately needs to get its act together & legalize medical mj. Keep up the good work. Kaligirl Kaligirl Buffalo, NY USA - Saturday, July 30, 2005 at 10:17:31 (PDT) British Columbia Marijuana Party Leader ARRESTED BY DEA OFFICIALS from U.S.A. Friday, July.28, 2005.

Wanted to let you all know I wasn't dead or asleep... Am feeling SLIGHTLY better but not sure what to attribute that to... Was it the Sativex? Was it that amazing Banana bread? Was it that awesome Smoke I had? Was it the Pills I took? (equals almost 1000 mg of morphine today already...) or... Was it ALL of the above? Not sure but am also not complaining... Will post more as I continue this journey.. Finally, SOME relief... Love and stuff, Alison xx Alison Myrden <alisonmyrden@cogeco.ca> Ontario Canada - Tuesday, July 19, 2005 at 19:04:04 (PDT) Alison's Sativex Blog (con't) July 17 11:09 am (someone asked me If I did 10 sprays my first time at once or did I do them separately) No. I did ten sprays throughout the day. Five in the morning and five later in the day that day... was a bad day then... today I have had seven. Will do ten more now to see...hang on... oops did 11... will know in a few minutes what will happen. Tasts leaves TONS to be desired... yuck... but if it works... nothing to report yet and it has been four minutes....no euphoria which I expected... haven't had that since I started taking 2000 mg of morphine daily... Have violent pain in my back today so will see if that helps... won't do anything else for at least 40 minutes... no pills... no smoking... no drinking anything, no eating any cannabis cookies... tee hee... think I'm having too many of those these days... . People are right that I smoke major amounts of Cannabis. I'm told I'm about a pound a month. So yes, one or two days would be $200.-300.00 worth of Pot for me so it is close... My level of pain is FAR BEYOND average. I have the most excruciating pain known to medicine in my face twenty four seven... I also experience violent pain in my back and hip - sucks for sure.. but at least smoking and eating pot helps... Sativex may not help me or people like me but that doesn't mean it won't work for others... I am an anomoly they tell me.. Thanx for the great vibes from everyone... You guys ROCK I'll be sure to keep everyone posted... Love and a Squish, Alison xx It's been 14 minutes now and still nothing...

Just wanted to keep people posted on my latest with Sativex... This is day 17 for me at minimum 5 sprays a day, maximum at one day 10 sprays throughout the day... Thought it was making me tired, but now think it is too little of a dose per day (I should be at 12-15 sprays a day and cannot afford this just yet) and too soon to tell. Will continue to keep eveyone posted... James email me and I might be able to give you some direction. Not sure if I can help at all but will try.. For those who have a bit of difficulty navigating our site and/or our information right now, stick with us, we are in the middle of upgrading alot of the website so stay tuned... Everyone else, thanx for sticking with us. We are averaging over 100,00 visists per month and are hovering around 7 million visits total... woo hooo!!! very exciting I think... Just means more people are listening... ;-D Until then there is alot coming up including a Police Convention in August for me for LEAP and the next weekend the Up in Smoke Café's Open House for their "One Year Anniversary". MAke sure you are around for the Demonstration on Saturday and the Part on Sunday... Thanx to James, James, Gary, Rose and Haley for hanging out and signing our pages... YOU - are going down in History my friends... ;-) Now for my continued Blog... Love and a squish, Alison xx **************************************** July 14, 2005 Well everyone... It has been two weeks exactly since I started 5 sprays of Sativex every morning and sometimes, a few more throughout the day. Am a little surprised I don't have more to report. I have just had my morning 5 sprays on top of a dozen dilaudid and a bunch of other pills. Not sure what to expect. No lightheadedness. No euphoria. No dizziness. No drymouth. Eyes are permanently red so that doesn't count...;-D No confusion. A bit more clarity of vision in that my eyes seem to be a little less stressed while sitting at the computer now... I'm not sure what, if anything I get from what I am inhaling via the Sativex, but am still trying it religiously. I am still smoking, albeit a little less than normal just to see the difference now. Not much to report on that. It's been 18 minutes and my face seems to be a LITTLE better now. Think it makes me tired though??? Thought that last week too. Seems like it nails me to my bed.. ...not sure what that's from for sure. Lotsa morphine today as face is so sore... Could be that,, wouldn't surprise me.... good time to have the Sativex to see.... Will continue to keep people posted as I go over the next two and a half months - IF i can afford it... Just woke up from a 3 hour nap!!!... Haven't done that in YEARS! Not sure if it's the weather (101 with the humidex)the fact that we were out all nite last nite at the Yuk Yuk's Benefit, or the Sativex. Whatever it was, I had a solid pleasant sleep. Obviously MUCH needed. Will keep people posted more as to what is going on with me and Sativex over the next 8-10 weeks... Love and a squish, Ali xx Alison Myrden <alisonmyrden@cogeco.ca> Ontario Canada - Sunday, July 17, 2005 at 12:06:41 (PDT) I have just gotten my medical card the other day, but I am unable to get my med, because I do not have a good out let to get it at.

James Beckett <James Beckett> Miami, FL USA - Saturday, July 16, 2005 at 17:03:43 (PDT) I have visited your site a couple of times in the past and came across things I had questions about and stuff I had planned to research. This is a pretty awesome site and I see you have some pretty good and well know supporters. Keep up your incredible work!! Gary South Intelake Manitoba Canada Gary W. JACKSON <garywj@shaw.ca> South Interlake, Manitoba Canada - Saturday, July 16, 2005 at 10:26:18 (PDT) This site seems very interseting Rose Merry <sajushahjahan1@yahoo.com> Dallas, Tx USA - Friday, July 15, 2005 at 07:49:16 (PDT) Ok, you know how, recently, the government changed the law so that even people that use marijuana medicinally, will be punished like a "normal" citizen, well I thought that people that hold a card for the use of Marijuana medicinally were supposed to be treated as if the marijuana were a prescribed drug... OXYMORON... the government is so freakin' dumb. Haley <haleythrasher@hotmail.com> Westfield, WI United States - Wednesday, July 13, 2005 at 23:05:17 (PDT) Wrote this the other day when I got home... July 3rd, 2005 Well. Hmmmmm.... So this is it? This is what all the hype was about? Just opened my bottle of Sativex in front of a photographer from my local paper. Pain in my cheek is probably an 8 out of 10 today with the severe weather change. Air Pressure dropped and so did I. My cheek has been very painful all day - sure hope something helps... ;-P After consulting some of the Doctors I speak to, it was suggested that I stay on my Morphine AND Smoke while taking the Sativex for the first few months. Apparently we have to get use to using it first. At first glance it's not very big. Only a one and a half inch bottle. Was no packaging to be seen as Pharmacy sticker covered the bottle.. But here is what I could read... Sativex is made up of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol 27mg/ml (From Tetranabinex - Cannabis sativa L.extract) and cannbidiol 25mg/ml(from Nabidiolex -Cannabis sativa L. extract) Buccal Spray Cannabinoid analgesic Guess it doesn't need to be very big for 51 sprays. I took 3 sprays to start, waited 15-30 minutes in SEVERE PAIN then took 5 more sprays. I am now aiting to see just how I feel. Not sure just HOW I am "SUPPOSE" to feel...? Am feeling a bit of pressure from both sides in this. I am realy hoping it will work, yet worried about how I'm going to fill my next prescription for Sativex. This is one of my only medications that ISN'T covered - YET. Still working on them and will let people know when I do just WHO will help us with coverage in this. Am a litle worried that it might take too long already for the spray to work... Not a good first impression but I'm willing to stick it out for a while... Was interviewed for my local Paper the Burlington Post yesterday. Should be out by next Wednesday they said. I took a very excited approach with the Reporter. I thnk it is really cool that we even have something like this to TALK about...!!! Hope the story comes across okay... I am also going to be a Guest again on Cultural Baggage on the Drug Truth Network http://www.drugtruth.net/ this Monday, July 4, 2005 at 4:20 pm with Dean Becker, all about Sativex so be sure to tune in... Loretta Nall is Dean's newest addition to the Station. Congrats Sunshine!... Loretta honey you DO Rock ;-) Thought things would be a little busier than usual but I know they will pick up. I just don't have the energy to track down Media for help like I use to. Guess I'm getting old... Either way, we HAVE to get out there and continue to make noise! I don't feel like I have done ANYTHING lately. Think I used the word stagnant recently... PLEASE watch your neighborhood for Rallies, Events and Festivals as Summer is here.

Taxes. How to tax marijuana, how to control all of the marijuana in Canada and how to charge $150 for an eighth without people bitching about it. When will they learn that marijuana is safer than alcohol or any prescription pain killer. The marijuana issue shows the truth that the government could not give a rat's ass about us. They don't care if we live in pain, they only care if they can get kickbacks from it. It is time for the governing bodies to do what is right and give real medicine to the people, stop caring about the almighty dollar and start caring about the people.

"Be Wise Confuse the Thugs - Legalize ALL the Drugs." Thank you for your continued love and support. Love and a Squish, Alison Myrden www.leap.cc ***************************************************** Law Enforcement Against Prohibition Mourns Mountie Loss An international nonprofit educational organization of current and former members of law enforcement is in shock. Law Enforcement Against Prohibition was created to give voice to current and former members of law enforcement, who believe the war on drugs has failed and who support alternative polices of drug regulation and control that will save lives, reduce disease, lower addiction rates, lessen crime, and converse tax dollars by ending prohibition. ?We want it to stop. There is no reason for officers to die like this,? said LEAP founder Jack Cole on the CBC this morning. Cole founded LEAP 2 years ago, after working as an under cover narcotics officer for 26 years. Though in mourning, LEAP representatives have been busy performing many media engagements to counter MP Anne McLellan?s claims that tougher laws would stop the violence. Speakers are dismayed that drug warriors have used this tragedy to hijack the drug policy debate. As such, LEAP would like to reiterate its stance that the War on Drugs can only come to a peaceful resolution with the legalization of all drugs. A full compliment of LEAP speakers is available to discuss this plan. Including former Corrections Officer, Health Canada medical marijuana exemptee and currently LEAP?s sole Canadian female spokesperson, Alison Myrden.

I
am 20 years old. I have been diagnosed with MS for 3 years. I am also
a marijuana user. It has been one year since my last exacerbation-the
longest period of time without one =). I would like to wish you luck
with your mission!! If there is anything that I can do, or if you have
any information you would like to share, please e-mail me. Thanks! Rebecca Dear
reader, Marijuana is a drug. It is therefore to be used as
a drug. We know as human beings the real story. I can only
say this.......... "Everything
in Balance". Use it not abuse it. Simple. Thank you for your time
and God Bless you. Peace,
y'all,,, Section 56'ers and other advocates will pack up
their implements of medicinal administration,and taking them
to parliament hill.Ottawa will be the scene of a marijuana
rally on Nov.25th and I'll be bringing my bong along. A huge
God Bless to lawyer Rick Reimer who has put in the good work
and received a permit to "express" ourselves this day
from 11:00am to 5:00pm. Rick,like myself,is federally exempt to grow/carry/use
cannabis for medicinal use.There are now 72 of us legal to do so in
Canada. Medicinal marijuana use is now a constitutional right that is
here to stay.Credit for that goes out to many.All have sacrificed so
much to get this far.People like Jim Wakeford,Terry Parker,Prof Alan
Young, to name a few "heros". Medical marijuana has managed to get its
foot in the door a crack.It has forced the gov't of Canada to examine
and rewrite existing marijuana laws,as our courts now recognize these
laws as unconstitutional and inappropriate.It's a beginning ,but buy
no means close to legalization or a satisfactory reform of the drug
laws. 60,000 people in this country were charged with cannabis related
offenses last year.75% of them were for simple possession.A small fine
at best,but a criminal record is attached.Some very sick and disabled
medicinal users were given the "right but no remedy" .Given a prescription
with no place to fill it,save the underground or the street. Thats "when"
it can be afforded.Police still arrest our care-givers and intercept
our medicine in the mails. This rally is a fantastic opportunity to
bring some real attention to our battles.Two days before a national
federal election is just perfect.Especially with Canadians going to
the polls having an opportunity to mark an X on the ballot for the "Federal
Marijuana Party." So come on everybody.Lets rave the capital:) Dig
a little deeper and find your way to parliament hill and show the
gov't and the Canadian people that we are for real ,and that their
drug laws should not be. Should be a BUZZZZZZZ:) Steven Bacon,Ont.
Can. exempted cannabis advocate I
have just read some stories and I know the hell we go through
with pain and sickness. I myself just today finally receiving
my exemption from Health Canada, and now hopefully I'll learn
how to grow it because around here it pretty grim pickin" ps
Great Web site Hi
Everybody. Just back for a bit. Am still smoking the wrong
strain, so am still very under the weather. Hopefully this
will be resolved soon. Just wanted to thank everyone so far
for their support. It sure has been tougher than I thought
- but truly worth it ! I am so glad that other people will
no longer have to suffer without Marijuana as Medicine here
in Canada. There is plenty more to be done though. Next step,
we are now an official Business - The Medical Marijuana Mission
can be reached at " www.themarijuanamission.com " from now on. (Seems someone
caught wind and stole our FIRST choice - they didn't stop us though)
;o) This is a huge step in our fight for a Source !! Canada is hearing
us and we ARE making changes ! Please stay tuned for news of the latest
steps in our Fight with the Canadian Government and how we are expected
to find our Medicine "on our own" - and then - be able to grow it
properly. Come on Canada - give us a break ! Does this include those
who are dying and too sick to grow their own ?? Speaker's Corner
went well. Made our point again. Back again next month to make more
noise...City TV, the Toronto Star and the Hamilton Spectator have
all been fantastic with their coverage - we truly thank you. I will
be back soon to update eveyone in our latest battle. For now, take
good care of yourselves... Love and a Squish, Alison xx It
should be legalized anyway you look at it!! I
really loved reading your story, i am doing a presentation on the use
and effects of cannabis and i will surely mention what cannabis has
helped you acheive. I
just have to say great website you have here, and congratulations on
everything you have done for the cause. I'm a 19 year old student in
the prime of my life who suffers severe chronic arthritis. I was just
wondering if you could give me some information on obtaining an exemption
from Section 56 of The Controlled Drugs and Substances Act. My e-mail
is monk3y@hotmail.com Thank you very much. Alison,
Congrats and much thanks for publishing a very intelligent
and informative site. I haven't even got past your guestbook
and I'm impressed. I am a member of the Oakland Cannabis
Buyers Coop. I suffer from chronic back pain/spasms and sciatica
from a severe compression fracture (L2). To make matters more
interesting, I was diagnosed with Hep-C right around the beginning
of the year. I've been taking Vicodin ES for years, as well
as mega-amounts of ibuprofen. I began to really suffer the
affects of the virus, mainly extreme exhaustion and depression,
about 2 months ago... so I finally got my butt to the doctor.
I begin the yearlong Interferon/Ribavirin treatment next week.
I've been told that ibuprofen is no longer an option, but I
can take a maximum of 2000 mg of acetominaphen per day. Hell,
I was taking that much in a sitting. THANK GOD FOR MARIJUANA!!
And bless my doctor, who recommended medical cannabis and referred
me to the club in the first place, and at considerable risk,
I might add. This was before the Supreme Court ruled it illegal
for the Feds to revoke a doctor's license for this compassionate
action. I also have a "bad
bust" story that is much too lengthy to report at this time. Suffice
to say that we beat the case, but only after a stubborn battle with
the DA. Our civil suit is pending. I'd be interested to hear from
other patients who are going thru hep-C treatment. This is all new
to me. I'm not looking forward to the side-effects... but I know
my medical pot will help. I've babbled long enough for now. Thanks,
Danny lovely
web site good luck in future shannon hey
whats up? need
to add more information on med. marijuana like depression. Hi.
My name is Laura, and I just wanted to say that guest books are awesome!
This internet stuff is all new to me,but I sure am enjoying it! I have
a friend who was just diagnosed with ms and is taking it very hard.It's
nice to read about other people who going through it and how they don't
give up!
I like your site here very-much, easy to get around in and full of helpful
tidbitties,, I need to take one of my 'self- taught' lesson's in the
reason's for medicinal use..[my grandma has glaucoma] so it's genetically
possible I have that disease. I will take a few lesson's in your web-page
it seem's the thing to do...again, nice site. Love
your website. Thanks for sharing a little piece of your life with me.
Peace Hi
, looks like my last posting got overkill, sorry :) heres a magazine
article from the Sept/Oct issue of Cannabis Culture Magazine.This is
some of the madness and hardships we must endure,and try to overcome.
http://cannabisculture.com/cgi/article.cgi?num=1661 I'm
happy to see the City T.V. speakers corners bits are starting to run.Another
example of Alison and Garys perseverence and conviction. We here work
real hard at this.Most of the time we shouldn't let ourselves get so
run down.But it's hard for us to lay down and settle for things as they
stand.I know Alison.I'm privilaged for sure.I see the suffering she
is going through with her illness this summer.It's been so hard to keep
up the good fight hurting like that.Our emotional frustration levels
are so high over our struggle for medicine.I cry for my friends suffering.I'm
furious that the gov't has left us to fight so hard for.Alison is gonna
kill me for talkin like this, but honey,i just want you to know that
i cry with you.I shed a tear for all that need the weed to get by. I
say a prayer that people will open there hearts and minds to what we
are all about. For those that read Cannabis Culture magazine, Dan Loendoerf
interviewed me this summer.The article is about children getting stolen
or denied by the system for cannabis use.Although the leak by the federal
Gov't was by no means the begining of my troubles, it cretainly changed
my focus and direction down roads i never expected to travel.So be it!
peace to all, sonnyboy Good
luck with your fight to stay healthy... We are with you in this war
to free a natural, helpfull, plant. Contact us if you need ant help.
Sincerely, Marc-Boris St-Maurice Leader, The marijuana party of Canada
www.marijuanaparty.org I
pray for the day when Smoking is legal. I love big blunts and I cannot
lie. I have ADHD. Attention deficit hyper activity disorder that is
extremely hard to deal with. I have found another benefit of smoking
herb is that my concentration level has risen along with my ability
to control my actions. God is good, man is not, man made beer, god made
pot, good luck to you AK I
see you already have a good number of comments, but hey, I'll contribute,
too. I read your story, and I believe for changes in our government
to take place (such as legalization), the people of our country and
polititions should read these stories and many more people in your position
should do as you have done. It is a very sad thing that cannibis and
marijuana are so discriminated as well as the users (medical or otherwise).
This is largely due to misinformation and lack of education on this
subject. Thank you for posting your story and I am going to put a link
on my website for it. Great
site Alison! Hope your feeling better soon! If any exemptee needs help
or advice growing I'm available! I am an Exemptee also. MaryJane helps
my Brain! herbman Hey,
just letting you know that I saw you on Speakers Corner and it was really
touching what you had to say so I thought I'd stop by your website.
I have MS too since I was 16, I'm 17 now, well I'm off to visit your
MS site, :) Aggie Hello,
heard about your site from the Speaker's Corner. I thought this site
was something about giving away free marijuana. But oh well...anyways
hope the government makes smoking marijuana legal for everyone. Hello
you all. Ive been "rasing" our "girls" for 3 months
and off line .Nice to be back. Sites a rave Alison/Gary :)thx. Hey there
in Alberta. Big plans.Good luck. I had a proposal that many thought
would fly.My Liberal MP left his ailing wife to hand deliver it to Alan
Rock, in session.I was impressed.Mr Rock sent me a lovely hand signed
reply thanking me for my ideas, but no thanks,sort of. Polititions do
have a wonderful command of diplomatic verbal diarrea. Jim Wakefords
institute C.R.I.T. has already been granted the go for medicinal studies
on Aids Patients.They want to resrict the shwagg to 3.8%.They even want
a placebo included in the testing.Good lord! Like i said ,good luck.Personally,
after attending conferencaes in Ottawa and witnessing as much as i have
from my unique vantage point,i have decided to take good care of my,and
my fellow exemptees concerns.I don't think i'll be rushing to your door
with my exemption to work hourly for you to grow medicine.I know alot
of fine,fine growers in Canada.Growers are an independent lot, we're
all different,and all refuse to let another cook in the kichen.I have
20+ good medicinal strains here that we are working on.I like the constitutional
right i possess to grow this wonderful plant. In my back yard if i choose.
The last thing most of us want is the gov't or anyone else medaling
in our business.The average THC content in all cannabis tested in Canada
by the police for many years now has been 6 to 8 %. Why are you so willing
to test sub standard medicinal cannabis? You don't really expect many
medicinal users to want for and use anything but the most potent,clean
medicine available do ya? I would appeal to the Growers in this contry
to "think medicine" It's your only foot in the door to
growing legally in Canada.Growing good medicine for a compassion
center and at a price we can afford is what the sick and dissabled
really want.Donate part of your crops this year. Annonomously if
your annonimity dictates :) I want to also encourage all closet users
to go see your Doctors again since the Terry Parker desition. INFORM
them that you use it medicinally and why.Have them include that into
your medical record, whether its liked or not. Its your contitutional
right to use it. Exorsize it.Protect your self from any or further
harassment from law enforsement.The courts in this contry will no
longer prossecute a bonified medicinal user.Thats a fact.My own exemption
and Health Canada's program was deemed unconstitutional by the courts
as well in the ruling.What good is keeping quiet? go see your Doctor
folks.Tell them... peace and good health, sonny :) (steven) sonnyboysb@yahoo.com http://www.zyx1.com

Notice of Proposed Procurement GSINS: F006E Crop Services To:
Canada From: Loren Wiberg for ZYX Corporation Deadline Date:
June 28, 2000 RFP : H1021-9-9012/B where Canada calls for the
design and creation of a complete process for creating pharmaceutical
grade marihuana products to be used in research to study the
medical benefits of marihuana. Vital elements to the success
of this operation are: a location with 24 hour per day security
personnel; a very secure 24 hour per day reliable growing environment;
security clearance for staff; efficient growing equipment;
maximum seed variety; detailed growing methodology; quality
control; THC testing; control of product to 0.1% and 5.5% within
0.01% THC content; harvest control; testing; quantity control
and audit; processing; production; packaging; inventory control;
shipping; documentation; and compliance with all laws and regulations.
ZYX Corporation formally proposes to create and manage a government
sanctioned facility to provide a controlled, secure marihuana
production operation to supply researchers in current and future
studies on the medical potential of marihuana. Under this plan,
this facility will produce the most reliable possible growing
conditions and guarantee a level of security necessary for
this project to be successful. The facility will serve the
purpose of: sourcing seed stock, germinating, cultivating,
monitoring growth, qualitative testing, pest and disease control,
harvesting, drying, sorting, chemical analysis, processing,
blending a consistent 0.1% and 5.5% THC level, fabricating
cigarettes, packaging, labeling, storing and shipping bulk
and prerolled marihuana products by courier to recipients as
authorized by Health Canada. ZYX Corporation will conform with
all statutory and regulatory requirements, included in the
Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and the Food and Drugs
Act. ZYX Corporation will purchase or lease to own a self contained,
secure location. ZYX Corporation has met and discussed this
facility with Bob Mills, the Opposition Health Critic in the
federal government, and he has stated his approval for this
type of use of this facility, see attached letter appendix
E. During meetings and discussion with Mr. Mills, who is also
the MP for the riding where the building is located, he mentioned
how he is supportive of this plan as an excellent use for the
building. He also mentioned he is in favor of medical marihuana,
but opposed to legalization. ZYX Corporation assured Mr. Mills
that this facility will only be used to produce pharmaceutically
pure marihuana to allow scientists to conduct research to discover
what medical potential it may possess. ZYX Corporation will
do all the growing from this proposal process, giving our staff
total control of the product from seed, through growth, and
concluding with the harvest and processing. The growers will
produce the contracted quantities of marihuana plants, for
Canada, for medical research. ZYX Corporation will be the sole
provider of security at the facility and will own the facility.
ZYX Corporation will be the only licensed processor for all
aspects of the harvesting, testing, curing, processing and
distribution of the marihuana. The ZYX Corporation grower(s)
will use their own secure space in the facility in which they
will be guaranteed continuous, 24 hour a day electricity, heat,
water and security for their growing operation. The growers
are entitled to use whatever equipment they choose, however
purchasing decisions and actual purchases are made by Loren
Wiberg, EPM, unless the government disallows a specific product,
method or supplier. The crops can be tended to by the grower(s),
anytime day or night, unless the government chooses to restrict
the access to a preset period. Grower(s) may prune and cull
plants as they see fit, with the removed plant material being
deposited into secure waste storage to be destroyed, on site,
by the QPIC within 72 hours. All harvesting and processing
is performed by ZYX Corporation staff under control of the
QPIC. Grower(s) will be allowed to help with the harvest or
will be encouraged to observe via monitors and will be given
accurate records of the product weight at each step of the
harvest, curing, sorting, testing, processing, and packaging
operation. Once packaged and documented the product is moved
to a secure storage area to await shipping. The grower(s) will
work under contract to ZYX Corporation and will receive payment
based on hours worked. ZYX Corporation will receive the preset
payment as arranged under contract. All payment for the marihuana
product will be between ZYX Corporation and Canada as described
in detail in the contract resulting from this proposal. ZYX
Corporation will provide 24 hour access to Canada inspectors
to monitor, inspect and review the operation, processes and
administration of the production facility. ZYX Corporation
is the corporation to be formed upon acceptance of this proposal.
If the Government requests changes to the structure for any
reason these issues will be addressed prior to incorporation
to the satisfaction of Canada. You can contact me: Loren Wiberg,president

in New Zealand a few of us have started our own medicinal cannabis club,
hoping for a grand opening anyday now :-) I personally suffer from CML
(a cronic form of luekeamia) and have used cannabis medicinally for
the abatement of side effects from chemo, a stomach ulcer and lots of
other things ranging from headaches to migraines. good luck with your
causes Raewyn I
am happy that you have received the exemption and have been
able to get off the "hard" prescription drugs while still gaining
some relief from your agony. Hopefully the government of Canada will
"open its eyes" and see the benefits of marijuana as medicine
for the many ailments for which it has been illegally used for so long.
The next logical step will have to be to begin its production to ensure
a clean and pesticide free supply of marijuana harvested in a controlled
environment for those who need it. Hopefully this will lead the government
of the U.S. to "open its eyes" and see the truth. It is time
for the world to drop the traditional biased view of marijuana as a
hardcore street drug used only by those who occupy the bottom rung of
the ladder of society. It is time to come into the 21st century. You
