Hello Well, very little happening on the legalisation of Medicinal Cannabis in Australia, not a big surprise really considering our current Liberal Government and their total lack of compassion for us average Australian battlers. In fact, we may ask, who is actually running the country, considering their record of the past many many months, as they self-destruct and fall by the way side. We badly need a federal election… The thirst for knowledge on Medicinal Cannabis continues to grow at an alarming rate, and the number of people now using Medicinal Cannabis to heal themselves and / or a loved one has grown exponentially along with that thirst, to the point now, that authorities would be blown away by its sheer numbers. Canberra is very close to tabling another cannabis bill in February when Parliament sits again, and much work is being done here in Tasmania in talks with the Labor party and putting together a bill for tabling here…. The wheels of politics turn slowly though, but we will not give up My work here in Tasmania continues, always busy, and the fine young ladies that are the Little Green Trailer team, have taken over the organising and running of this unique educational concept, which has allowed me more time for other important things within our advocacy work. Ok, enjoy the read, please forward it on to as many people as you can, we need to keep spreading the good word on Medicinal Cannabis and Hemp Andrew Irving Medicinal Cannabis & Hemp Tasmania® and Little Green Trailer Tasmania Passionate Advocate for the Legalisation of Medicinal Cannabis for ALL AUSTRALIANS All submissions / feedback for the magazine can be emailed to - [email protected] (Personal stories can be anonymous if you wish) Deadline for May / June 2019 edition - Mid April 2019 We thank the Labor Party of Tasmania for their continued support and determination to bring in Medicinal Cannabis legislation. I especially want to thank the Labor Party of Tasmania for their support of the work that I do, and the many offices who kindly print hard copies of this newsletter for me. Senator Carol Brown and her staff print out includes a few bound hard copies. This has allowed the Doctors and Specialists who have requested them, to have a quality copy in their respective consulting rooms.
