What if you had a chance to change the future?

What if you had a chance to change the future?

It looks like I did post in here this year.  lol I need to assign this job to someone, perhaps my assistant Facilitator will accept this roll.  I'll have to ask her.  I'm actually working on another Blog site, to which I may move this one over to its own sub domain on that BlueHost server.  Please click that link if you need a website of your own!   Oh right.  I need to promote my courses!  I am in school with Make a Change Canada, taking IBDE web design training  (finishing it with this course on WordPress) and one update to go from a previous course I took).  I'm also in a business abilities course through Make A Change Canada as well.  If you are considering a business, you should check them out.  Lots of free training there too!
 
Anyway, the reason for this post is to let you know you can change our shared future.  I am real sure you've heard about Cannabis, and the expected changes to take place in April of 2018.  You will be affected by the change in Canada.  Here in BC, a new committee, the BC Cannabis Regulation Engagement Committee has been tasked at getting our province ready for that change.  For my class, I have to republish a post I made on my website, "http://walknroll.info" which is a request from the committee for "Stakeholder input".  As a citizen of BC you are a stakeholder.  Enjoy, let them know what will look best!  If you had clicked the link above to the committee, the survey's behind that and you can skip the rest below!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Do you live in British Columbia, Canada (aka BC)?  Have you heard about Cannabis?  No doubt you have a well formed opinion, it's been illegal for 100 years as I type this. Read on to see how you can help BC make sense of our future.  Do you know that you will be locally affected by National policy changes and overburdened provincial forces concerning the impending legalization of Cannabis? It's on track for July 2018.  Speaking of our UBCM, here is an after report as seen by a reporter  at CBC News.   Or have you purchased a ticket on the Mars Shuttle and are planning on departing this planet?  That's not my link by the way...

You might be using it for Medicine even before the change.  You may be even authorized by your doctor.  More often than not, if you consume while diagnosed you likely do it "illegally" as that doctor may not believe in the power of it.  All good.  In April of 2018, things are going to change and it'll be as common as tobacco.  You can hide your medical use.  Imho, all use is medicinal, recreational is just a mask, silently making things better and protecting healthy individuals from chronic illnesses.  Whatever.  It all boils down to freedom.  You will be free to choose, or refuse.  Things are confusing in the political world, help the BC Cannabis Regulation Engagement Committee do the best job they can so our shared future is less confusing then it is presently...  Thanks in advance!

The Request:

Have your say in the matter! You will be affected in other provinces as well and apparently in the USA too but alas, this is only directed towards those of us who live here in BC!  Onward to freedom, be the change here on the west coast!  The BC Cannabis Regulation Engagement Committee wants to hear from you, as a stakeholder in our shared future!

(won't cost you anything but time)

It has been a long time since I wrote on this blog.  In the last 7 years, I have now my own business, just going to start a new course to help that, I manage 2 WordPress Blogs (Volunteer Prince George hired me last year to manage theirs at volunteerpg.com and I built a website for the Carefree transportation society with an attached Word Press blog~ carefeesociety.org).  I am known as a Professional Volunteer, still remain the Facilitator of the Prince George Multiple Sclerosis Self Help Support Group among other volunteer positions I hold.  I am also employed pert time by the Handy Circle Resources Society. In just a week or so I will return for another course with Make-A-Change Canada. The local hospital, PGRH or Prince George Regional Hospital,  was renamed since the last posting, it is now known as the University Hospital of Northern British Columbia or UHNBC

The Prince George Multiple Sclerosis Self Help group will be reforming again this year, in the fall of 2017.  Our role in our city has become very important with the closure of our local MS Society of Canada office closing (in early 2016) to be reborn (mid 2017) as a new, larger region covering all of Northern BC, a few southern BC communities and up to Whitehorse in the Yukon territory.  It is now known as the "Northern Regional Chapter of the MS Society of Canada, BC and YT Division"  with its staff scattered around in major centres like Prince George and other lager communities in the region.  Our local MS SH group, not unlike and other MS SH groups in the province, includes members of the MS Society board that reside in our communities as they are as affected, with some afflicted individuals helping the community we cover locally.  They do fit the criteria of membership that includes people with MS and anyone who has interests or awareness of our community.  To that end, we do have a board member to act as lesion between the SH Group and the Society, to assist us in the reformation and sustainable existence of the group.  Looking forward to the near future!  O and Cannabis at this point is set to be legalized in the very near future, but at present time, it's still risky to be involved in the trade either as a purchaser or as a distributor and "legal weed" has all sorts of restrictions subject to government recalls...  it is  becoming well known to be an effective safe treatment for the effects of Multiple Sclerosis.  Stay tuned for another report hopefully sooner than another 7 years.  Safe travels!
