The pungent smell of marijuana plants is one that is becoming a little too familiar to some residents in Sooke.
RCMP Staff Sergeant Steve Wright said an issue has recently emerged in the community where people with medicinal marijuana licenses, issued by Health Canada, have been growing the plants and venting the smell outside—and neighbours have been complaining.
“They have the fans going for a certain period of time to vent all that moisture and heat in the house (into the atmosphere),” said Wright.
“If they vented late at night where there weren’t people outside, it might be a viable option. But to just vent on a warm summer day, people can’t sit outside and enjoy their property.”
Wright likened the act to a band practicing in a residential neighbourhood with loud instruments. He said residents have been looking to the RCMP for enforcement, but there is currently nothing to enforce. Read the rest of this entry »

The “drug war” strategy of the last four decades revolves primarily around supply side measures. Whether eradication, interdiction, or arrests, it fixates on stopping the seemingly endless flow of drugs and cash across U.S. borders . But there is obviously another side to the equation – U.S. demand. The United States is the largest consumer of drugs across the globe (though there are signs that the cocaine and marijuana markets in Europe and the developing world are catching up) with 1 in every 7 Americans having tried an illegal substance. Marijuana accounts for the vast majority of that consumption, followed by prescription drugs and cocaine. Read the rest of this entry »

Editor: I am writing in regards to my husband Ross Hubbs. He is dealing with dementia, and has been for the last 12 years. He is quite aware of where dementia takes a person. I have his general practitioner’s and specialist’s approval to allow him to use medical marijuana. I would not want to be facing what he faces every day. Would you?
I applied on his behalf through the federal government for a license to have a supply. I told them that at that time B.C. Compassion Club in Vancouver would be his supplier.
B.C. Compassion Club is not a satisfactory source with the federal government. I must grow my own or find someone with a license to grow for me. I did not have a secure place to grow, nor the inclination to do so. Read the rest of this entry »
