JCT: In making up an Application for Leave to Appeal to the
Supreme Court of Canada, you need to draft an Order taken
from the reasons for decision that reflects the issues of
the case.
So today, I'm mailing off the following letter along with
copies of the Orders to the Crown in Toronto for their
approval as to the form and content. There shouldn't be much
argument about the wording since I've cited them directly
from the court's reasons.

THIS APPEAL of the judgment of Mr. Justice Lederman dated January

JOHN C. TURMEL
Applicant
(Appellant & Respondent in Cross-appeal)

HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN
Respondent
(Cross-Appellant)
ORDER
THIS APPEAL of the judgment of Mr. Justice Lederman dated January
9 2003 which dismissed the Appellant's application for an order
A) declaring that the prohibition on the possession of marijuana
(cannabis) in the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) is a
genocidal violation of Applicants' S.7 Right to Life in

force and effect
3. THIS COURT ORDERS that the appeal is hereby dismissed without
costs.
(Signature of Judge or Registrar)
JCT: Notice that now we have to appeal because of the
quashing of the MMAR sections by the Hitzig group. If Alan
Young hadn't forced them to fix the MMAR, then the
prohibition would not now have become valid again, so the
court says.
Remember that the order that Bowser Burnstein drafted was
for:
"THIS COURT ORDERS that the cross-appeal is
allowed, in part, by setting aside the first two
paragraphs of the judgment of Lederman J., and
substituting therefore an order declaring that
subsection 4(2)(c), section 7, subsection 34(2),
subsection 41(b) and section 54 of the Marihuana
Medical Access Regulations, S.O.R./2001-227 are of
no force and effect."
JCT: Paul only left out the result of their victory:
"which renders constitutional the medical
exemption as described in the remaining provisions
of the MMAR, thereby rendering the possession
prohibition in s.4 of the CDSA no longer
inconsistent with the provisions of the
Constitution.
JCT: Think about that. Alan Young's Hitzig victory renders
the MMAR constitutional thereby rendering prohibition no
longer unconstitutional.
If Alan Young had not won the above order declaring those
sections of the non-working access mechanism gone, without
the great Hitzig victory about fixing the MMAR, the law
would have been declared dead on Terry Parker Day on Aug. 1
2001 but not have been declared re-alive on Oct. 7 2003!
All because of Alan Young and Paul Burstein. Their Hitzig
case brought the invalid law back to life, so they say. The
celebrated Hitzig victory revalidated the prohibition for
the Canadian Marijuana movement. Har har har har.
And for one last laugh at Beagle Burstein's Supreme Court of
Canada issue:
PART II: POINTS IN ISSUE
Did the Court of Appeal err in holding that the
appropriate remedy for the constitutional defects
in the MMAR was to simply sever certain provisions
without also remiting the case back to the learned
Motions Judge so that the court below could ensure
that the new medical marijuana scheme created by
the Court of Appeal's Order and the Government's
response thereto, would adequately address the
needs of seriously ill Canadians?
JCT: It's tough not to feel superior when constantly faced
with such mediocrity by their best.
So while the Hitzig Order stresses the fix that brought
prohibition back to life, our Order stresses the death of
the prohibition that cannot be brought back to life by any
fix other than by Parliament. Not three doctors can declare
a penal sanction back to life. Not three firemen can declare
a penal sanction back to life. Not three policemen, not
three engineers, not three monkeys that swung down off a
vine onto a bench can declare a penal sanction back to life.
Only Parliament may re-impose criminal statutes.
The fact that a thousand extra epileptics have died due to
decision of the present occupants on the bench only makes
the matter sadder.
So all we have to do is wait until the Hitzig detritus is
garbaged by Canada's highest court before our Parker's and
my quality applications go in.
Now you know where we're at and what the issue will be.
