Canadian Judge may have Legalized Marijuana

August 17th, 2011

In response to Canada’s severely flawed medical marijuana system, Judge Donald Taliano found that prohibition itself was unconstitutional.

The drug war has long made a mockery of the American Justice System. In Canada however, the Justice System is making a mockery of the War on Drugs. Canada has had a system of medical marijuana in place for several years. On April 12 of 2011, Judge Donald Taliano of Ontario heard the case of R. v. Mernagh. Matt Mernagh is a Canadian medical marijuana patient who has been treating his fibromyalgia and seizures for years. Unfortunately he was unable to find a doctor who was willing to sign the paperwork to allow him to legally use marijuana. The police then raided Matt’s house and seized all the plants he was growing for his own use and charged him for growing without a license.
