To: David Anderson’s Office
From: Leon “Ted” Smith, Head Consultant, Victoria’s Hempology 101 Society
This is a formal request to meet with Mr. Anderson as soon as possible to
discuss the current life-threatening situation in Victoria regarding the use
and sale of cannabis for medical reasons. I have been arrested twice this year
for distributing cannabis to people with incurable medical problems, something
I had done for over 6 years on Vancouver Island with others, working as the
Cannabis Buyers’ Clubs of Canada. This continual persecution is occurring in
part because Health Canada has created inadequate programs, which currently
prefer people die without legal medicine than to work with existing clubs.
To make matters worse, some of the staff in Mr. Anderson’s office appear to be
quite ignorant of many important issues regarding the medical use of cannabis,
something quite obvious during a recent visit. We look forward to educating Mr.
Anderson and his staff about the reasons why the cannabis laws are unreasonable
and how important the continuation of the CBC of C is to the lives of many
local citizens.
Please do not refuse us this opportunity to address these issues A.S.A.P.
Yours truly,
Leon “Ted” Smith
