MARIJUANA IS SAFE

Re: Medical marijuana worries McLellan, Aug. 20.

So Federal Health Minister Anne McLellan is worried about medical marijuana 
because she has no scientific proof of its efficacy. Does Ms. McLellan have 
any scientific proof of its harmfulness? If a substance is not harmful and 
if some people believe it helps them, the government has no business 
banning it.
