|    John KingofthePaupers Turmel to All    |
|    TURMEL: Can Court of Appeal save us from    |
|    24 Mar 14 09:46:59    |
   
   From: johnturmel@yahoo.com   
      
   JCT: The Crown got everything they wanted out of the Allard   
   decision, shut down all new self-grow-opts and more time to   
   set up Licensed Producers before wiping them all out. Then   
   all they have to do is cave on the hash and oil, on the   
   outdoors, on the 150 gram shipping limit and they've wiped   
   everyone out and passed along the production to Big   
   Business. No, Health Canada must be really pleased with   
   their win in the Allard Decision.   
      
   At this stage, only a Federal Court of Appeal judge can   
   grant us exemptions from Justice Manson's decision. Here is   
   the motion I'm going to file later today in Toronto:   
      
    APPELLANT'S AFFIDAVIT   
    File No: _________   
    FCC: T-488-14   
    FEDERAL COURT OF APPEAL   
   BETWEEN:   
    JOHN C. TURMEL   
    Appellant   
    and   
    HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN   
    Respondent   
      
    NOTICE OF MOTION   
      
   TAKE NOTICE THAT on Tuesday Mar 25 2014 at 9:30am or as soon   
   thereafter as can be heard the Plaintiff's urgent short   
   notice application to the Court at the Courthouse at Ottawa.   
      
   THE MOTION SEEKS   
   1) an extension of time to file the Notice of Appeal;   
   2) the consolidation of the appeals against the Mar 7 and   
   Mar 10 2014 judgments of Justice Crampton; and including the   
   other Plaintiffs below whose actions were stayed but have   
   not yet been appealed in any relief this Court may grant.   
   3) an interim constitutional exemption from the prohibitions   
   on marihuana in the CDSA for the Plaintiff's personal   
   medical use pending trial of the Action.   
   4) a date of Mar 25 to hear an motion on short notice.   
      
   THE GROUNDS ARE THAT our motions which raised 36 major   
   concerns about the medical marijuana regimes below were not   
   heard in time to prevent Manson J. from imposing conditions   
   based on fraudulent Health Canada survey data and testimony   
   that inflict on the group conditions of life calculated to   
   bring about its physical destruction starting April 1 2014.   
      
   AND FOR ANY ORDER abridging any time for service or amending   
   any error or omission which this Honourable Court may allow.   
      
   Dated at Toronto on Wednesday Mar 24 2014.   
   John C. Turmel, B.Eng.,   
      
    APPELLANT'S AFFIDAVIT   
      
   I, John C. Turmel, B. Eng., Canada's most-often court-   
   accredited expert witness in the Mathematics of Gambling, do   
   make oath and give my expert opinion on the following:   
      
   A) 150-GRAM LIMIT FRAUD   
      
   1. The 150-gram personal possession limit imposed on   
   Exemptees under the "Medical Marijuana Access Regulations"   
   ("MMAR") and the "Marijuana for Medical Purposes   
   Regulations" ("MMPR") under-medicates by a factor of 9 based   
   on fraudulent surveys by Health Canada thus inflicting on   
   the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its   
   physical destruction in violation of S.318(2) of the   
   Criminal Code of Canada.   
      
   2. On Feb 7 2014, Health Canada's Jeanine Ritchot swore in   
   an Affidavit for the Federal Court case No T-2030-13 of   
   Allard v. HMTQ in paragraphs 24-29 with regard to MMPR S.5,   
   S.130, S.122, S.123 "must not possess or deliver more than   
   30 x Daily dosage or 150 Grams":   
    24. 36,797 ATPs up to December 11 2013.   
    25. 675,855 daily grams prescribed in 2013.   
    26. Average licensed indoor plants 101, outdoor 11.   
    27. Average daily amount 17.7g/day on Dec 12 2013.   
    28. According to Ex. A "Information for Health Care   
    Professionals" at page 24 "Various surveys   
    published in peer-reviewed literature have   
    suggested that the majority of people using smoked   
    or orally-ingested cannabis for medical reasons   
    reported using between 10-20 grams of cannabis per   
    week or approximately 1-3 grams [Average of   
    averages 1-3 = average 2] of cannabis per day."   
    29. Individuals who purchase their dried marijuana   
    from Health Canada have on average purchased 1-3   
    grams per day, [Average of 1-3 = 2] which is in   
    line with daily dosages set out in the most current   
    scientific literature referenced "Information for   
    Health Care Professionals" Ex.A"   
      
   3. 675,855/36,797 = 18.37g/d. I'll use 18g/d from now on. 101   
   plants average is based on average 20g/d prescribed, a factor   
   of 5. After two emails from me requesting the cited surveys and   
   peer-reviewed journals, Health Canada has not been able to   
   provide that information.   
      
   4. The "Information for Health Care Professionals" states:   
    "Minimal therapeutic dose and dosing ranges   
    Various surveys published in the peer-reviewed   
    literature have suggested that the majority of people   
    using smoked or orally ingested cannabis for medical   
    purposes reported using between 10 - 20 g of cannabis   
    per week or approximately 1-3g [Average = 2g] of   
    cannabis per day. Footnote 165, Footnote 277, Footnote   
    350.   
      
   5. There is something inherently wrong with speaking of a 1-3   
   gram average. The average of the averages is 2 grams. Averages   
   are not stated as ranges. They are a point, an average. The   
   fact we're given a two averages suggests improper or   
   incompetent statistical analysis.   
      
   6. Footnote 165:   
    (1) Clark, A. J., Ware, M. A., Yazer, E., Murray, T.   
    J. and others. (2004). Patterns of cannabis use among   
    patients with multiple sclerosis. Neurology. 62: 2098-   
    2100. The sample size was 144 was calculated to detect   
    an estimated prevalence of 10% with a 2.5% standard   
    error.   
      
   7. Clark's study only discusses "single-dose size" and says not   
   a word about daily dosage at all and results with the sample of   
   only Muscular Dystrophy patients is hardly indicative of the   
   average dosage for all other illnesses. 25% of the mean is a   
   pretty big error due to the small n. Significance was set at   
   the 95% level, that 2 Standard Deviations according to the   
   Statistics Rule of 66-95-99.7: (1SD: 66% 2SD: 95% 3SD: 99.7%).

    Abrams, D. I. (2004). Medicinal cannabis: rational

    "In informal surveys from patients in Washington and   
    California, the average reported consumption ranges   
    between 10-20g raw cannab is per week or 1.42-   
    2.86g/day..
