Freezing wind chill and snow did of course affect the numbers in a huge way. I am very impressed by how many braved the nasty weather (70+). The cold and snow didn’t dampen our spirits in Calgary! Recorded live May 5 / 2012 http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/22380903 and http://vimeo.com/41663020
A lot of the Calgary 420 members that attend these types of public events do posses a Health Canada MMAR Exemption (legal medical cannabis). They can legally consume their legal cannabis medication in airports and hospitals in Canada using a herbal vaporizer. They can smoke their legal cannabis medication anywhere a tobacco addict can consume their poisonous to all legal drug. These same Health Canada MMAR people will consume there legal medical cannabis in a discreet as possible fashion at these types of public events. These sick and even vulnerable Canadian’s go out of their way to show respect for other humans they don’t even know. We all at least should show them and their life saving medication some respect.
I do want to thank The Calgary Police Service for the many years of professionalism when working with Calgary 420 Cannabis Community and for their compassion for sick and vulnerable Calgary citizens!
