 ;) ;D ;D, I had a good friend from MI. bring me some when I was going through cancer[couldn't use it, Work] agree or disagree it is still illegal :) So I burnt it at the spirit station, I figured that was an appropriate place to get rid of it. ;)

Had to go to Ottawa again and drove by those weed fields.  I was mistaken, there are actually 3 whole fields of the stuff and they started to harvest it.  It's cut about 2' of the ground so definitely not fiber hemp

It's okay. While I started it with the future outlawing of another herb in mind, I'm against the whole idea of outlawing naturally occurring plants, marijuana included.

The entire premise is ridiculous. They haven't outlawed any of the highly toxic poisonous plants, just the ones that make you feel better. I guess feeling better isn't in the countries best interest.

It did morph quite a bit, sorry about that, but I am with DK.  The idea that some can outlaw native plants is foreign to me and I don't care for it especially since many of these plants are medicinal and have been used medicinally by the indigenous people worldwide.  I guess some people just think they know better than everyone else

P.S.  I noticed on the way back from Ottawa that the farmer will have to sharpen his harvesters blades quite a bit.  Many of the plants refused to be cut and were still standing
