The B.C. Court of Appeal rejected Michele Kubby's claim that the regulation infringed on her rights. The former Californian went to court after Health Canada rejected her application to possess and grow marijuana. Her doctor's letter was from California, but Health Canada said the physician had to practice medicine in B.C. Ms. Kubby now lives in Kamloops. - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
