The Federal Government says it intends to ban individuals from growing medical marijuana in their homes.
Growing the green stuff in a private home is a fire hazard -- that seems to be the main justification by Health Canada in a release following the Government's announcement that it plans to outlaw medical marijuana patients from growing their own bud.
Under the proposed changes, the Government also announced it isn't going to be growing marijuana for medical purposes -- now the plan is to allow companies that meet strict security requirements to sell for medicinal purposes.
The Government says it wants the commercialization of medical marijuana to be in full effect by March 2014.
