injunction/court case updates

My guess is, if there random inspections it will be like guns, under 10 you receive notice within 48hrs, over 10 no notice. It would stop those black marketeers from hiding under a medical clause. And maybe shut up the cops and nimbies

thanks buddy...much appreciated....
its typical .....when it rains it pours....its like you knew I had run out...lol
 
I agree with you both to a degree. I am an MMAR PPL holder so i am as invested as anyone in this. I just really see our rights being preserved yet stricter regulations being implemented. If it is just a total victory and a free for all well then, call me wrong and let's get growing!
 
I wonder how long they are going to give us to shut down.
I wonder how they intend to notify all current mmar exemptees.
I believe Conroy and coalition will wash their hands of this case, win or lose, on Wednesday.
Who do you suppose will pay for my 270 gram/month prescription?
Me? But I live below the poverty level already.
One stroke of the pen and I instantly become a criminal, but I would win a court case if charged.
Unfortunately, I would be homeless while fighting that case.
My mom and dad would tell me to stop living in the past and move on with my life.
Decision Day.
 
Me too OGEvilgenius but conroy says that they are ready to file the appeal should it be a bad outcome. Somebody said we would go to the next step which is the federal court of appeal. I believe that is incorrect. We're at that stage right now I believe so the next step should we lose would be to apply for an appeal and have the case heard by the supreme court of Canada. This wait is hard though. That's for sure.
 
Here's a response from lawyer Kirk Tousaw about the Phelan case...

Many people have questions about the Allard v. Canada Federal Court Trial Division decision coming down Wednesday February 24 at 9am PST. I'll try to touch on some of the more common ones I've seen or been asked today:

1. This is a trial court decision with national effect. If we lose we will appeal to the Federal Court of Appeal and we will seek to continue the protection of the current injunction and/or expand upon it. I don't know if the Crown will appeal if we win. I expect it will and that this fight will continue no matter what the decision is.

2. It is impossible to tell anyone what the impact of the decision will be. In the first place, we don't know if it will be a total win, partial win, partial loss or total loss. We have no ability to impose the remedy we want - we can only ask for relief and the Judge decides what to do.

3. If we lose the Crown argued that the injunction should immediately end and all patients should immediately stop producing medicine or be subject to arrest. We argued that even in a loss situation, the Judge needed to give people time to shut down their gardens and not turn them into criminals overnight. We don't know what the Judge will do.

4. If we win, we don't know what the win will look like. We asked for several possible remedies but the Judge can do what he feels is best according to the Charter. That could include making the current injunction permanent, expanding it, declaring the CDSA invalid and a whole host of other options. It could enable address changes or it may not. He could just declare it unconstitutional to criminalize personal/caregiver medical production, suspend the declaration for 6 months or a year and send it to the government for a response. Any win is likely to include, at least, extending the current injunction because it would be odd to find in favor of a Charter right yet end the injunction that protects patients.
