Make no mistake, says Anne Franey, oil derived from legalized hemp plant seeds in Canada is both legitimate and healthy. The Annapolis Valley businesswoman was reacting to an article in Friday's edition in which a Maccan resident called the golden-coloured liquid he produces from marijuana plants hemp oil.
Ms. Franey of Berwick didn't want the legal hemp seed oil she uses to create dozens of products confused with Rick Simpson's oil that he claims relieves pain and cures many ailments, including cancer. "Our hemp seed oil comes from hemp plants that have a negligible amount of THC ( the compound that makes people high )," Ms. Franey said.
"Hemp seed oil has been legally sold in Canada since 1998."
Ms. Franey said the oil is found in health food stores and now in various pharmacies in Nova Scotia. "It is nature's most balanced oil for the Omega 3, 6 and 9." She markets dozens of products, ranging from edible oils to skin-care, under the name Totally Hemp Ltd. Mr. Simpson agrees his oil is different from legal hemp seed oil. His oil is made from plants he grows himself and has a high level of THC.
"It's a miracle drug,' he said, estimating he's distributed his product free to at least 300 people for a variety of illnesses. They ranged from cancer, psoriasis and skin ailments to back pain and concussions.
Mr. Simpson, who had 1,600 marijuana plants seized by the RCMP earlier this month, intends to discuss what he does today during a public meeting at 2 p.m. at the Maccan Royal Canadian Legion.
