Mayor Sharon Gaetz says the city should know who is growing medical marijuana. By the city knowing who the medical marijuana growers are, the city is putting the lives of the medical marijuana growers in very great danger. Let us not forget, marijuana is illegal and very profitable for the criminal element and to have the city have access to private medical files disclosing who is medically allowed to grow marijuana, we might as well post all the medical marijuana growers names and addresses on Facebook. People who grow medical marijuana are not criminals. People who grow medical marijuana are, for the most part, cancer patients who have been prescribed marijuana as a last resort to address their pain and the last thing they need is to have happen in their painful lives is to have their doors broken in by criminals with intent to hurt them and steal the medical marijuana they are growing because the city and the Fire Chiefs Association of B.C. cannot keep their names and addresses a secret. Sharon Gaetz, give all these poor people who need medical marijuana a break. Leave them alone. Mike Hodge Chilliwack - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
