In this episode, Kirk learns how the law was on the side of righteousness when Owen Smith found himself in front of the Supreme Court of Canada defending a desire to help the Victoria Cannabis Buyers Club, a longstanding compassion club. In the first part of a longer discussion, listeners gain insights to his six-year legal journey which ends with him becoming a medical cannabis industry advocate and influencer. His cannabis story started with family, but it was a faulty exhaust fan and loud music which moved the Victoria Police Department to deliver, “rock star treatment” during his arrest for creating cannabis edibles. He explains how a legal technicality brought him to the Supreme Court, while the Canadian court system actually supported his efforts creating cookies for medical cannabis patients. Owen Smith LinkedIn UTNDR - https://utndr.com/R. v. Smith, 2015 SCC 34, [2015] 2 S.C.R. 602 https://decisions.scc-csc.ca/scc-csc/scc-csc/en/item/15403/index.do?q=CannabisVictoria Cannabis Buyers Club-Instagram - @
