Marijuana is the only medicine that is keeping Mr. Kubby alive and alleviating some symptoms of the rare cancer he suffers. I always thought Canada was a much more enlightened and compassionate country than the U.S. and didn't suffer from the reefer madness mentality prevalent here. Mr. Kubby is a law-abiding individual. Stand up to the U.S. and reform your drug policies and show compassion by allowing Mr. Kubby to live in your great country. Denny Lane Waitsfield, VT - --- MAP posted-by: Josh
