House of Commons of Canada Bill C-431 First Reading April 20 / 2007

An Act to amend the Contraventions Act and the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (marihuana)

Keith ;)

so is this pro marijuana?

Decriminalization of cannabis. A progressive fine system. Each offence the fine gets higher.



(a) for a first offence, to a fine of $200;

(b) for a second offence, to a fine of $500; and

(c) for any subsequent offence, to a fine of $1,000.

For greater certainty, an information shall not be laid under the Criminal Code in respect of this offence.



Some say good news some say bad news.

Either way it will not make it far with the current government.

Keith

sounds to me like they are going to make you pay a fine if caught in possesion. But what do i know I live in UZbekistan !

Little move........hope ya don't mind

Have a good one!:jointsmile:

but it doesnt say the penalties for growing.

The current government wants to have minimum sentencing for growing.
Not a good thing at all of course.

Keith

nope not good if such a bill gets passed,I cant see the NDP or LIBs signing a bill that gives mandatory minimum sentances for growing weed,unless your a biker or gangbanger.But for small time growers i cant see it but who knows.
