Men to take tokes on tour
By KATHLEEN HARRIS
Ottawa Sun
PEMBROKE -- Two area men with the legal right to toke are taking the weed on tour.
Rob Brown, a high-profile advocate for legalizing pot for medicinal purposes, and his former defence lawyer Rick Reimer are planning a six-week road trip called the Cross-Canada Cannabis Enlightenment Tour. The goal is to educate the nation about the merits of marijuana.
On a route from Victoria, B.C., to St. John's, Nfld., the pair plans to dispense pot seeds, educational literature and advice from a mobile growing unit. Travelling in a roving van, they hope to have a small hydroponic operation on board.
"Our first stop will be the local police station," said Reimer, who suffers from multiple sclerosis. A practising lawyer for more than 20 years, Reimer hopes to inform people about the process of applying for an exemption under Health Canada's controlled substances act.
LEARN A LESSON
Police officers could also learn a lesson about the rights of those with federal government permission to light up, he said.
Brown, who has cancer and hepatitis C, said the trip will begin this June and wind up with a rally on Parliament Hill July 31.
Reimer says the trip will also work to break down the negative stigma surrounding marijuana.
"We also want to say, 'Look at this harmless little plant -- what's everyone so afraid of?' "
