Canadians for Safe Access (CSA) is an action-oriented, grassroots
campaign of patients, supporters and suppliers working at the local, provincial and national level
to change the unjust laws that prevent Canadians from accessing therapeutic cannabis.
Canadians for Safe Access will begin an aggressive media and grassroots campaign designed
to:
Pressure Health Canada to live up to its court-ordered obligations and follow the will of the Canadian people by opening up access to therapeutic cannabis.
Health Canada's Office of Cannabis Medical Access has proven itself incapable of addressing the needs and concerns of Canadians wishing to use cannabis therapeutically. The CSA will promote the development of a decentralized access and distribution system with the goal of allowing all Canadians who could benefit from cannabis therapies to do so safely and efficiently.
Defend the rights of patients to seek alternative access to therapeutic cannabis.
CSA will work to prepare and defend medicinal cannabis dispensaries and the patients they serve from attacks by local, provincial and federal law enforcement through legislative strategies, media campaigns, and non-violent direct action.
Serve as a catalyst for media-savvy grassroots activists to work effectively with drug policy reform groups and supportive local, provincial, and federal officials.
We will work to unify medical marijuana advocates, patients, and caregivers around a focused campaign of liberalized access to safe cannabis and anti-discrimination towards users and suppliers.
