Ppl Say Cdn Gov't Weed Is Awful!
ROFL!...ONLY IN CANADA COULD THIS HAPPEN!
OTTAWA, Canada (AP) -- Some of the first patients to smoke Canada's government-approved marijuana say it is "disgusting" and they want their money back.
Health Canada, the federal health department, started selling marijuana in July to bring relief to patients suffering from AIDS, cancer and other diseases. The move followed a court order that patients should not be forced to get their marijuana from drug dealers on the streets.
But some of the first to buy the government's marijuana say it is no good.
"It's totally unsuitable for human consumption," said Jim Wakeford, 58, an AIDS patient in Gibsons, British Columbia.
Wakeford and Barrie Dalley, a 52-year-old Toronto man who uses marijuana to combat the nausea associated with AIDS, are returning their 1-ounce (30-gram) bags, and Dalley is demanding his money back -- about C$150 ($110) plus taxes. Wakeford is returning his unpaid bill for two bags with a written complaint.
The marijuana is being grown for Health Canada deep underground in a vacant mine section in Flin Flon, Manitoba, by Prairie Plant Systems on a contract worth about C$5.75 million ($4.2 million).
Ten patients have registered with Health Canada to buy marijuana directly from the government to alleviate their medical symptoms. Another 39 applications are pending.
No patients have complained directly to Health Canada so far, spokeswoman Krista Apse said, and the department will not accept returns or provide refunds.
Meanwhile, Vancouver inaugurated North America's first government-authorized drug-injection site Monday. The controversial government-funded project will give users injection kits and allow them to shoot up under nurse supervision.
Drug users sometimes use dirty needles and water from puddles to shoot up. Now, addicts wanting to use the new facility will be ushered into a brightly lit room lined on one side by open, mirrored booths where they can inject drugs.
After finishing, they will be taken to a "chill-out room," where they can receive counseling and peer referrals.
US gov weed is good shit I've heard.
(I should say the stuff they use in research trials).

Canadian Prison Wants Flavored Condoms For Inmates
POSTED: 7:51 a.m. EDT September 15, 2003
WINNIPEG, Manitoba -- Just any old condoms won't do for prison inmates in one Canadian province.
Last week, the Manitoba government requested bids on 40,000 fruit-flavored condoms for prisoners in jails and youth centers. But now government officials are having second thoughts.
One Justice Department official says the request for 40,000 condoms may have been excessive. As for the fruit flavor -- the official now says regular condoms will be OK.
The Justice Department is defending the idea of supplying condoms to prisoners, saying the move would help stop the spread of disease.

#1 BC bud is awesome, i live in Washington, and we grow pretty damn good stuff, but BC is better. Ahh the stank ;D.
#2 Prisoners, are in prison. Disease would help punish them, and lets just say they stay in prison until the disease is gone so as not to harm the public by being let out. Its a win win situation.

Thats odd, you would think gov weed but be awesome. I've smoked stuff that I was told was like us gov medical weed and omg, it was great...very clean as well.
If the canadian gov is growing it then shouldn't they be testing and seeing that the THC levels are low (i'm assuming this is what is making it shitty).
just admit it canada has the best weed anywhere...well best hydro...ive done almost every drug and the only drug that really fucks my head up like BAMMM!!!!!!!! is Canadian weed...ive bought weed in the states worst crap ever...tasted like someones socks and only got me buzzin a bit....pfft
