I am saddened when I look at 12 states in the U.S. that have legal medicinal cannabis programs now and every one of them has more people signed up to use legal medicinal in one year than Canada has signed up in five years of having a legal medicinal cannabis program in place. I always liked to believe Canada was one of the more compassionate countries. The facts show that is not the case -- sadly.
