|    TURMEL: Cherniak seeks MMAR grow-op exte    |
|    13 Feb 14 07:22:20    |
      From: johnturmel@yahoo.com              JCT: The last you heard, Federal Court Justice de Montigny       had ruled that Laurence Cherniak's MMAR Authorizations and       PUPL grower license be extended by Health Canada to Feb 28       2014 but instead, they sent him a letter exempting him from       S.4(1) possession and 7(1) production under the CDSA but not       S.5(2) Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking such a       large amount as the 25K of which he could be found in       possession.              Justice de Montigny also ordered Laurence had until Jan 31       to file his amended application which he did.              In the meantime, Laurence has filed the following       Application in Federal Court for the extension of his ATP       and PUPL slated for hearing at General Sittings in Toronto       on Tuesday Feb 18 2014 9:30am.              File No: T-164-14        FEDERAL COURT       BETWEEN:        Laurence Cherniak        Applicant        and               Attorney General of Canada        Respondent               APPLICATION UNDER S.18 OF THE FEDERAL COURT ACT               NOTICE OF MOTION              TAKE NOTICE THAT on Wednesday Feb 5 10:00am or as soon       thereafter as can be heard the Applicant's application to       the Court on short notice.              THE MOTION SEEKS:       a) an Order declaring that the Letter of Exemption issued       to Applicant under S.56 of the CDSA does not satisfy the       Court's Order dated Jan 20 2014 that Applicant's       Authorization To Possess and Personal-Use-Production-       License under the MMAR shall be extended;       b) an Order of Mandamus that the original order of the       court dated Jan 20 2014 be complied with.              THE GROUNDS ARE that the relief provided under the CDSA       does not convey the same rights and privileges as the       relief ordered under the MMAR would have.       Dated at Toronto on Feb _______ 2014.       Applicant       Laurence Cherniak       TO: Registrar of this Court,       Attorney General of Canada       For the Respondent:       James Gorham, Counsel               AFFIDAVIT OF LAURENCE CHERNIAK              I, Laurence Cherniak, make oath as follow:              1. Ex. A is the Order dated Jan 20 2014 of Justice de       Montigny which states:       "The Applicant's authority to possess and to produce       dried marijuana for medical purposes under his current       Authorization To Possess dried marijuana for medical       purposes and Personal Use Production License, both issued       under the MMAR and both due to expire on Jan 26 2014,       shall be extended by Health Canada to Feb 28 2014."              2. Ex. B is, instead, a Letter of Exemption pursuant to       the CDSA, provided by Health Canada:       "In accordance with Mr. Justice de Montigny's court order       dated Jan 20 2014, (Docket T-164-14), and subject to       conditions herein, you are hereby exempted pursuant to       S.56 of the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act from the       application of subsection 4(1) and 7(1) of the CDSA and       subsection 8(1) and section 69 of the Narcotic Control       Regulations starting Jan 26 2014."              3. Ex. C is my email documenting my objection at not       receiving the relief ordered.              4. Ex. D is the email from the Crown Counsel James Gorham       that the relief offered satisfied the demands of court       Order.              5. Applicant submits that the S.56 relief offered under       the CDSA does not convey the rights and privileges as       the relief ordered by the court under the MMAR would have       in that:              a) the S.56 CDSA Exemption does not qualify as a "medical       document" under S.255(1) of the new MMPR as an extended       ATP under the MMAR would have;              b) the S.56 CDSA Exemption does not permit the legal       transfer of seed and plant genetics to a Licensed Grower       under S.262(1) of the MMPR as an extended PUPL under the       MMAR would have.              The S.56 Exemption fails to provide exemption to S.5(2).       R. v. Turmel(2003), OCA said 7 pounds is Possession for       the Purpose of Trafficking such a large amount even when       there is no offence under S.4(1) and S.7(1)!       An officer who finds me in my garden with 55 pounds would       charge me under S.7(1) Production, S.4(1) Possession, and       S.5(2) Possession for the Purpose of Trafficking. At my       trial, I would be exempted from S.7(1) and S.4(1) but not       S.5(2).              Laurence Cherniak       Sworn before me at Toronto on Feb ______ 2014.       A COMMISSIONER, ETC.               APPLICANT'S WRITTEN REPRESENTATIONS              1. The Order of Justice de Montigny dated Jan 20 2014       states:       "The Applicant's authority to possess and to produce dried       marijuana for medical purposes under his current       Authorization To Possess dried marijuana for medical       purposes and Personal Use Production License, both issued       under the MMAR and both due to expire on Jan 26 2014,       shall be extended by Health Canada to Feb 28 2014."              2. Rather than extending Applicant's ATP and PUPL pursuant       to the court's order, Health Canada chose to instead       provide Applicant a Letter of Exemption from S.4 and 7 of       the CDSA pursuant to the S.56 CDSA which does not convey       the same rights and privileges as an extended ATP and PUPL       under the MMAR would have.              3. Applicant informed Respondent that the relief was       unacceptable and Respondent replied it was good enough.              4. Applicant submits that the Order was intended to       continue the status quo, not to allow the expiry of rights       and privileges that would continue to exist under the MMAR       by offering a different relief under the CDSA where:       a) the S.56 CDSA Exemption does not qualify as a "medical       document" under the new MMPR as would an extended ATP       under the MMAR;       b) the S.56 CDSA Exemption does not permit the legal       transfer of seed and plant genetics to a Licensed Grower       as would Applicant's extended PUPL under the MMAR.              JCT: On Feb 5, Health Canada sent him a letter of Intent to       Reject his application again for false or misleading       information and gave him until Feb 12 to file additional       information before they make an official decision by Feb 14       2014. From: MMAP-PAMM       Subject: Application for Authorization to Possess and       License to Produce Marijuana for Medical Purposes       Date: Feb 5 2014 2:29pm       To: webmaster@laurencecherniak.com              Dear Mr. Cherniak:              The information you provided on Jan 30 2014, pursuant to the       Court Order of Justice de Montigny, dated Jan 20 2014,       indicated the specialist you consulted in regard to your use       of marihuana for medical purposes was Dr. Tan, general       surgeon. You provided Dr. Tan's name in support of your use       of marijuana for medical purposes.              Health Canada has contacted Dr. Tan, who advises that his       area of specialization is not relevant to the treatment of              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
