Dateline, Wednesday May 2 – I stumbled out of bed with my 5am wake up call in my Granville st hotel room. I had come over to Vancouver from the Island two days prior to spend some extra time with fellow activists and my beautiful girlfriend Kimberly before heading to Toronto for the Global Marijuana March on May 5.
I arrived early at YVR and took advantage of an online coupon for half price parking in the long-term lot, $44 a week. The free shuttle bus didn’t take long at all and soon I was on my way.

Two Arizonans lent a medical-marijuana company in Colorado $500,000, but the company didn’t pay them back.
So, what did they do? They sued, of course.
But instead of forcing the company to pay back the loan, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge told the two Valley business partners they were out of luck as far as he was concerned.
Marijuana is illegal under federal law. And the judge said he can’t enforce the loan agreement because the money was for an illegal purpose under federal law. He dismissed the suit.

Amazing photo by Wendal Grant from the 2012 GMM in Toronto. That’s me on the right with the camera!One of the great things about being a professional pot journalist (and believe me, there are many) is enjoying the opportunity to travel to foreign metropoleis to conspire with likeminded cannabis activists and sample fine strains of marijuana.
Of late, I’ve been lucky enough to spend a weekend or two each year in what has become one of my favorite cities on the planet: Toronto.
