I was gonna pick up today, but my dealer said he was all out. Shit...now I won't be able to toke a bowl to celebrate
I just did some research...apparently, it's been extended until November when the Ontario Superior Court hears the Crown's appeal in Mernagh's case. http://www.torontosun.com/2011/07/03/ontarios-burning-pot-controversy
oh that sucks, thanks for the update man, i was really hoping it would be legal tomorrow lol o well i can wait a bit longer
This shit's been going on for almost two years, if not more. How many times are they going to fucking push it back? The courts already ordered Health Canada to overhaul the MMJ system and the Conservatives just went ''lolnope.'' Fucking hell...

The ruling was stayed for three months so the government could fix the problem, but the government appealed and it was heard in May. While we're awaiting the ruling from Ontario's Court of Appeal, no one can be convicted in a lower court until the higher court decides if this law is in fact valid or not, unless of course you willingly plead guilty.

So until they decide a ruling we cannot be charged with possesion? or can we still be charged, but it will just take longer; until the ruling is decided?
