Brent Starting With The Bacics

        Last Thursday, Gregory Lenehan, A Haxifax judge acquitted another cab driver of sexual assault. The provincial judge said that Houssen Milad, The sex assulter can walk free... Vice News reported that although Lenehan believed the complainant was sexually assaulted last summer (2016).  The Crown failed miserably to prove that Milad was responsible. ." Lenehan has a long ongoing history of sex assault and acquittal cases. In March, the first of which involved a woman so intoxicated that she was passed out in the back of his cab. However, despite her having a blood alcohol level between 220 and 250 milligrams of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood (roughly two to three times the legal driving limit). Lenehan proclaimed that the victim had consented in this situation. But was it true? His decision reads that a person will be incapable of giving consent if she is unconscious or is so intoxicated by alcohol as to be incapable of understanding or perceiving the situation that presents. This doesnt  mean that an intoxicated person cannot give consent to sexual activity. obviously a drunk can consent for their own safety.

         Vice's story about this is gripping giving the reader enough information to know what happened without going in to too much detail if you ask me, but it is good to know more than you want to know than to not know enough. I think this is an article that everyone should take into consideration to read because things like sexual assault should be very punishing and shouldnt happen!

On Sept 22 2017, Ontario Is allready fighting on Dispensary owners for legal weed. Clint Younge was tormented by bullies as a boy in elementary school Because of his ADHD in Stoney Creek, Ontario, long, long before he discovered the power of cannabis.around the same time he turned 20, he was struggling with mental health issues and post-traumatic stress disorder linked to his childhood, so he started researching cannabis and began using it as a treatment. He found the substance more effective than any prescription drug he tried.“It saved my life,” said Younge, who’s now 35 and is the CEO of MMJ Canada, a cannabis dispensary chain from B.C. Tyler James works in community outreach and strategy for Eden, another B.C. dispensary chain that opened shops in Ontario around the same time as MMJ. Toronto police have raided them multiple times in recent months, but James said it doesn’t do much to deter them. He said they serve around 15,000 customers a year at their Ontario locations.James put his arguments forward this week at the Toronto licensing and standards committee hearings, a municipal regulator, on legal cannabis. He said his company has launched a concerted effort to lobby the provincial Liberals, as well as the opposition parties.The ministry was “not able” to provide figures on the number of dispensaries in the province or how much the industry is worth.

“Though more consultations are required to set the price of cannabis in Ontario, we will be guided by our focus of keeping these illegal pot shops closed,” Rudyk said.
