S ome Canadian physicians choose to harm people who benefit from medical marijuana.

"The Ethics Committee"

Health Canada gave me permission to use marijuana
to reduce intraocular pressure (the main symptom of glaucoma)

then they leaked my personal info to the media.

Since that time, some doctors here in Victoria, BC have refused me medical treatment
- others gave me harmful medications.

In being prohibited from reasonable access to medical care,
my vision was unnecessarily damaged.

At a local Hospital they scalded my eyes.

I was last manipulated out of care in November, 2008.

After a review of my situation was dismissed by the BC College of Physicians and Surgeons in 2009, an international panel of ophthalmologists from other countries reviewed my case.
Thankfully, I quickly received offers to provide me with the surgeries required to help me from losing even more sight.

With Glaucoma*

*Health Canada grants permission for people with glaucoma to use marijuana, yet the British Columbia Ministry of Health supports doctors who refuse to provide ophthalmological and general medical care to the same patients - causing unnecessary suffering, and irreparable vision loss.

To the people who
pick up the slack
for those who
impose barriers to healthcare in Canada:
