Legalize Cannabis and Cannabis oils in Medicinal Practice as Prescriptions

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

We believe that the medicinal use of cannabis is wrongfully illegal and that it should be legalized as a prescription-only drug. We believe this as cannabis can help in multiple medicinal ways such as helping sickness relief from chemotherapy, muscle spasms, glaucoma and epilepsy in children
We believe that if this petition gets forwarded and debated in parliament then it can really benefit people who need it the most to help with medicinal problems where they can not have their pain relieved from normal pain killers or even have their condition helped due to the effects of cannabis and cannabis oil.
