A MEDICAL MIRACLE?

Editor, The News:

Thank you so much for your wonderful story and coverage of Fraser Valley MP
Chuck Strahl's debate on marijuana.

As one can see, I was successful in forcing the medical issue at the debate
and was met with overwhelming support (90 per cent).

I had a long meeting with Chuck over the issues we covered in your story
and my personal case. He was blown away by the government's failure with
medical marijuana. He agreed to take my issues directly to Health Minister
Anne McLennan.

Yesterday, I received an e-mail from him in Ottawa, stating that he had
already spoken with her and she would be responding in writing to us. I
believe your story and this three-pronged attack - protesting, court
actions and parliamentary intervention - will produce the results that all
sick Canadians need and deserve.
