The Court of Appeal upheld the decision of the trial court, which stated that restriction on use of only \u201cdried marijuana\u201d instead of \u201ccannabis derivative products\u201d deprives the medical marijuana users of their liberty to choose how to take medication by imposing a threat of prosecution and incarceration for possession of active compounds in cannabis, which is contrary to Section 7 of the Charter, and is also not justified under Section 1 of the Charter, as the same offends the principle of fundamental justice because they are arbitrary, doing \u201clittle or nothing\u201d to further its objective to protect public health and safety.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">The Court observed that forcing a person to choose a method of treatment which is more prone to risk of cancer and bronchial infections by smoking (inhaling) dry marijuana instead of choosing a more effective treatment by way of cannabis derivatives in the form of cookies, gel, oil etc is infringement of liberty and security of a person as enshrined under the provisions of Charter. The Court concluded that restricting medical access to marijuana to its dried form is inconsistent with the Charter, and as per Section 52 of the Constitution Act, 1982, a law is \u201cof no force or effect\u201d to the extent it is inconsistent with the guarantees of the Charter. Accordingly, the Court declared that Section 4 and 5 of the CDSA are of \u201cno force and effect\u201d, to the extent that they prohibit a person with a medical authorization from possessing cannabis derivatives for medical purposes. The Court also clarified that the said declaration is not suspended because it would leave patients without lawful medical treatment and the law and law enforcement in limbo. <i>R v.
