Strong Canadian dollar said hurting pot exports VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters) - The strong Canadian dollar has hit the illegal marijuana sector just as it has other industries that export to the United States, one of Canada's best known legalization advocates said on Thursday. But western marijuana growers have also benefited from Canada's strong economy, especially the booming Alberta oil patch, which has increased domestic consumption, according to Marc Emery, a founder of the British Columbia Marijuana Party.

Here is my most recent Blog for LEAP. To catch the remainder please go tp www.leap.cc when you're done here... Love and stuff, Ali xx LEAP Blog 'Tis the Season Harvest time is just around the corner for marijuana growers all over North America soon and I'm excited. I don't think Law Enforcement are though... This means I will have a few solid months of continued cannabis consumption which means better health! Yay. It also means the Police will be busy with continuous interdiction by eradicating grow operations all across Canada and the U.S. Every year around this time I run out of cannabis no matter what I do. I never have enough and the…

Source: www.news.com.au sounds like properganda in order to get marijuana classed as a harder drug again to me besides its not like gangs would trust their crops to kids to grow and maintain even if they had all the knowledge they needed, at the most they would get them to manicure because their tiny hands would be able to get all the small leaves

LEAP Blog - Is there an end in sight to the Drug War? Last week in my biweekly LEAP blog I spoke of the fact that 80% of Canadians polled wanted opium used for medicinal purposes.

Just passing this on from another List serve I'm on... Fabulous news for those afflicted!
