THE HEALTH AND SAFETY PERILS OF LEGAL CANNABIS.

http://cnews.canoe.com/CNEWS/Canada/2017/10/31/22762001.html

36.4 MILLION DOLLARS being spent on the health and safety perils of cannabis.
The biggest of the perils???The huge money pit that is created by the Gov. to inform Canadians
on all the perils and dangers of mj and mmj use.
So over 1 dollar for every man woman and child in the entire country for a safety program...

Wouldn't this money be better spent hiring more people to process medical applications at a somewhat
reasonable rate of time???
Or maybe one ...of any other of the thousand of things... we the people could spent our tax dollars on.
Also would it not be better just to include new and accurate info in the school drug use programs already in place ...since the education really needs to be given to the children....not adults.
extra cost...to school board programs...basically nothing

This new investment is in addition to the initial $9.6M over five years for a comprehensive public education and awareness campaign and surveillance activities announced in Budget 2017.

Surveillance activities are what you get when Cannabis is legalized and the Gov is the point of sale. They spent decades wasting 10’s of millions $$$$ persecuting Cannabis users...now they want their (taxpayer) money back.

1) "This new investment is in addition to the initial $9.6M over five years for a comprehensive public education and awareness campaign and surveillance activities announced in Budget 2017."

2) "Petitpas Taylor says the money is in addition to a five-year, $9.6-million allotment set aside in the last federal budget for a public education campaign."

Did paragraph 1) change into paragraph 2) since the initial link was posted?

lots of big numbers ...money wise being thrown around...
new investment....in addition too.
and another 526 million earmarked to HC...
unbelievable...really
I guess when you consider just how dumb the average mp is with respect to something like mmj
then this education money...is probably needed just to bring them up to speed on a topic like medical mj

There is no ceiling to the level of stupid and wasteful spending with this government legalization. Wow.

Ya...it's enough to make you sick honestly. The amount of suits and non cannabis folks trying to ensure they're portion of the booty is pathetic. They hated it until they heard they could cash in...then they love it....imagine that.
Kitchener just announced they will get a store to sell the poison pesticide schwaggs. we should hand out flyers once it's open to anyone who goes in.

go gettem Hippy... get them..
