From Mark Heinrich, writer for Treating Yourself.
South Australian Parliament member Sandra Kanck has introduced a bill legalizing cannabis for medicinal purposes. Recently, it has come under attack from member A. Bressington in the form of outdated research and invalid reasoning. From the article:
Such manipulation is found in the honourable member’s initial second reading contribution. In a total disregard for the potential consequences of the words, the honourable member told this council and all those who read Hansard that cannabis does not cause schizophrenia but instead is a treatment for this most devastating mental illness.
The full part in the first reading of the bill is here, and the second is here. Also, the text from the second reading is here.
