Lawmakers and enforcers are looking for guidance on how to react to an Ontario Superior Court decision quashing Canada’s marijuana laws.

On Monday, a St. Catharines judge ruled the federal medical marijuana program unconstitutional because patients are largely prevented from legally accessing the drugs they need.

the inevitable reaction....but.....governments can't run over the citizenry with arbitrary law.....

St. CATHARINES, Ont. - The federal government is appealing a landmark ruling that could legalize marijuana possession, at least in Ontario.

That April 11 judgment by Superior Court Judge Donald Taliano in a St. Catharines courtroom threw out pot production charges against Matthew Mernagh.

It also deemed the federal medical marijuana program unconstitutional.

Last week, the Public Prosecution Service of Canada filed a notice of appeal to the Ontario Court of Appeal against Taliano's ruling.

It says Taliano erred in law by declaring the medical marijuana law was unconstitutional.
