BREAKING: Canadian Gov't announces it will LEGALIZE MARIJUANA by Canada Day- July 1st, 2018.

in #life8 years ago (edited)


The Liberal government of Canada who've backed the Police State Bill C51 for many years now, has announced that legislation next month is coming, to legalize marijuana in Canada by July 1, 2018

Each Province in the nation will have right to decide how marijuana is sold / distributed:


2 key points here on these dates nobody is talking about:

  • July 1st is Canada Day -- and no doubt this day was chosen as a nice PR move.

  • It just happens to be right in time for them to gain traction for the next Federal election only 15 months later. Also a PR move.

It's government and politics though, right????

Not just taking a pot shot at them either.

Reports say the policy will be announced during the week of April 10, while others in the mainstream "media" in Canadastan here, (the Globe and Mail) suggested the bill be introduced on 4/20 - April 20, the symblic date in the cannabis community.



Last year on 4/20, Health Minister Jane Philpott announced during a special session of the UN General Assembly in New York, that the Federal government planned to adopt the legislation legalizing marijuana in spring 2017. The government is famous for making promises, not delivering and delaying or stalling as long as possible as we know anywhere in life.


This is an issue that united Canadians. It is an issue that based on the Liberals promises on the campaign trail -- most agree-- pushed them to victory. Not many dispute this, based on the huge claims and daily promises.

Then again, one of their elected and appointed heads of this policy sector is retired former Police Chief Bill Blair who was running things in the famous Police State G20- beatdowns and lock ups of residents en masse not long ago in the Toronto region (GTA) -- not far from where I actually live.

Bill Blair is parliamentary secretary to the Minister of Justice.

He was head of likely the LARGEST POLICE FORCES IN ALL OF CANADA. The Toronto Police force.

Not many talking about him either.



Feel free to add your comments / encouragement, frankly, we can all use a little more of that in our lives.

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset if I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I'm dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online & will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.

I'm still waiting for New York State to also legalize nature (cannabis). Good thing I don't ask permission to do what I want.

Yeah, same here...but I have a friend whose gift in life is growing, so legalize, don't legalize, it's not changing anything for me!
Are you downstate or upstate?

@fulltimegeek is so awesome. The guy's heart is so big, we are lucky to have him here.

I'm happy you're here too Barry. Thanks for the kind words.

Upstate. Residing in beautiful Penfield, New York.

but I have a friend whose gift in life is growing

God bless him.

Well hello neighbor! I reside in Ovid on the Finger lakes wine trail, twenty miles from Ithaca, Watkins Glen, or Geneva- love my central location :) As soon as the weather completes its transition into spring, my blog will transform from mainly fiction into the beauty of our area, I truly can't wait!
Oh and, if you're ever in need of my friends growing prowess, send me a chat :)

legalize nature

I love that.

  • considering my ENVIR. work and activism, I like that a lot

Nice to hear from you because you are #FullTimeAwesome

and that is on top of the whale DV we are all getting that is twice that is really required for smoothing rewards for people if you look at the other whales who UV.... wayyyy beneath them in Steem Power.

Be well my friend!!!

The health minister's name is philpot?? LOL You have no choice but to take pot shots at that! (I'm not sure what's going on in that picture, but ow my eyes, hee hee)

hahahahah!

Right?

You are funny.

My last of the day is up, the BTC forks smashing decimal places today!!!

Nite my friend!

Wow so shocked to hear this ....

Big news but long overdue most people would say, as the article says too --- they like all political parties jumped on this angle to get them elected. People are not going to forget this, they have lost a LOT of traction on so many issues, this was their fall back plan to try to REMAIN in power as such.

Hopefully the UK follows with this!

We do share some common "governance" systems as you know with the Queen and the Crown and all that.....crap lol, so maybe. I think as such, it definitely sets precedent as such for the UK

I played around and made a couple edits and embedded a short Marc Emery video just now too since you posted here.

Thanks for the twittery share.

People need to watch this Bill Blair character I named in the article as the former head of the largest Police Force in Canadastan. Now a key figure and elected advisor for the Feds. This part of the story is far too quiet.

Thanks I will check it out. Great work!

I could not do this when the news broke last nite, my headaches were so bad by 7 pm my time, I was offline but knew about this. Thanks man

It is useful for people like me since I try to avoid the mainstream news so hadn't heard. Sorry about the headaches!

About time :)

You saw my key commentary in here eh, about the PR type dates and whatnot?

#Politics

Oh ya! All a big show why the people beg for scraps

America, the land of the free
Land Of The Free
....except when trying to smoke pot

Hopefully America follows suit, but seems unlikely :(

Truth.

I have been a

#Liberty

activist in Canada a long time, outside of this particular issue.

They are all related like I thread together in this article.

Great picture!!!

This has been a long time coming...since the Le Dain Commission report of 1972. I once supported legalization, but no longer can, given the problems we're seeing in Colorado...crime on the rise, driving under the influence, etc.

Oh wow... And fyi for pot? Wow. And what about armed gangs and cartels in prohibition? What a lack of information. I live in Oregon and it's great other than maintaining protections for patients.

Hell yeah! Well done Canada!

I wish they would stop this shitshow circus and just decriminalize it already. There is already a "Grey Market" like Emery said, and I'm sure there are corporations ready to run with this when it happens. Delaying these decisions because it makes you look better for the next election should be illegal. It probably is illegal if you're not a politician.

As for your large signature block..... I keep meaning to tell you every time I see it. You could use CoinPayments to cut down on your wallet addresses. They accept over 50 cryptocurrencies and you can just put a QR Code or link and allow the person tipping you to decide their preferred currency. It will also let you do a sweep of all your currencies and exchange them for bitcoin with one click as well as some other cool features for merchants. Hope that's useful to you.

Thanks, I will look into it...

but I have way too many accounts and wallets and more accounts all over and it is kind of well, enough LOL
