The federal government is backing away from changing the marijuana bill, despite Prime Minister Paul Martin's musings about toughening the Chretien government's proposals.

The amount of marijuana possession that would be decriminalized will stay at 15 grams instead of being lowered, and there will be no extra penalties for repeat offenders or traffickers, say Liberal MPs familiar with the federal bill.
