Even though she says she has never consumed marijuana, a Saskatoon woman stood up and spoke at a rally on Saturday to decry the police raid of the Saskatchewan Compassion Club.

Last Thursday, Saskatoon police shut down the medical marijuana dispensary and arrested four people with drug trafficking.

"Somebody I love was once very ill," Brittany Elliott told the crowd on Saturday.

"I lied next to him every night as he screamed in pain and lost his quality of life."

Elliott said her friend has Crohn's disease and was depressed and in pain. She said he tried many treatments and also took part in drug trials.

"He discovered medicinal marijuana and it changed his life, and we saw him smile again for the first time in a very, very long time," Elliott said.

"He got his life back and he wanted to share it with others."

She then identified the man as Lane Britnell, one of the four people arrested at the Saskatchewan Compassion Club.

Britnell, 23, has been charged with trafficking of marijuana and possession of marijuana for the purposes of trafficking.
