The Leaf THE LEAF Sept-October 2019 | Page 3

Hello I have been producing this newsletter every other month now for nearly 5 years. Hard to believe as time has flown. Researching Medicinal Cannabis articles on everything and anything, from illnesses and ailments through to corruption by governments and legalisation issues. As a digital newsletter, my emailing list is currently 923, which as you can imagine, takes quite a while to send them out as due to quantity can not be sent all at once. These then get forwarded on by yourselves to countless others all over Australia (and overseas) It has been registered with the National Library of Australia in Canberra as a serial newsletter (ISSN 2206-2807) and is available for download in every library across Australia. The Tasmanian Labor Party have supported me, and still do, in my advocacy of Medicinal Cannabis for all Australians, and regularly print out hard copies for distribution at events, Little Green Trailer Tasmania and individuals we meet on a daily basis. Every copy, from the beginning is freely available for download from Joomag, through my Facebook site “Medicinal Cannabis & Hemp Tasmania” So why am I saying all this, well the time has come for me to step back, I’ve done my bit and time for others to stop talking and start acting. I’m tired of Australian apathy and attitude of “she’ll be right mate, someone else will do it” Hence at this stage I will see the year out with the November/December issue 25 2019 possibly being the last edition of ‘the leaf’ not definite, but we will see… Enjoy the read and please forward it to others, thank you Andrew Irving Medicinal Cannabis & Hemp Tasmania® and Little Green Trailer Tasmania Passionate Advocate for the Legalisation of Medicinal Cannabis for ALL AUSTRALIANS Deadline for November / December 2019 edition - Mid October 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.
