PLEA TO GROW MARIJUANA REJECTED BY APPEAL COURT

Vancouver -- Canada's medical-marijuana rules have withstood another
constitutional challenge from a marijuana advocate.

The B.C. Court of Appeal rejected Michele Kubby's claim that the
regulation infringed on her rights.

The former Californian went to court after Health Canada rejected her
application to possess and grow marijuana.

Her doctor's letter was from California, but Health Canada said the
physician had to practice medicine in B.C.

Ms. Kubby now lives in Kamloops.
