Canadian Advocate For Religious Use of Cannabis Profiled

Cannabis Culture yesterday carried a long article about Canadian Chris Bennett who has filed a lawsuit in Canadian federal courts seeking an order to compel the Minister of Justice to issue an exemption from Canada's Controlled Drugs and Substances Act for religious use of cannabis. Alternatively the suit seeks a declaration that the ban on possession and production of marijuana is unconstitutional under Canada's Charter of Rights and Freedoms (Sec. 2, religious freedoms; Sec. 7, liberty and security of the person; and Sec. 15, guaranteeing equality and prohibiting discrimination on the basis of religious belief).
