The Greens Chloe Swabrick was among the MPs who voted against the bill, among other reasons because …
“It represents a highly pharmaceuticalised, commercial model…”
Does this mean she wants amateur growers to get a slice of the medicinal action? Or gang members?
Reti told RNZ the bill had three key points: cannabis with low THC could be obtained over the counter; it improved the MedSafe consenting process; and the prescribing regime would be pharmacy dispensing, such as in the US.

Today we find ourselves living in an America where the Republican Party seems to stand for voter suppression (see Pennsylvania, Arizona, and Georgia state legislature just to name a few) as they try and place as many obstacles in the path of African-Americans who would like to exercise their franchise.
