Penticton Western News (British Columbia), August 23, 2013 Rick Simpson, 63, is a proponent of homemade cannabis oil, a product he developed from marijuana buds and claims to have used to heal himself. “It’s basically a cure-all. It’s good for all types of cancer, I would say all types of diseases. I haven’t seen a disease yet it wasn’t a benefit for,” he said in an interview this week from Nanaimo, where he kicked off a 17-day B.C. tour that ends Sept. 6 in Terrace. “Over 10 years ago, I cured my own cancer using an extract from the cannabis plant,” he continued “Since that time I’ve been to everybody there is to go to — the cancer societies, the different political parties, I’ve been to them all — and all they’ve done is persecute me. “But now, it’s all over the Internet because I took my case to the public.” ... Bruce Prince, a Terrace resident who organized Simpson’s visit, said he learned about the oil through Internet research and became a convert earlier this year. ... Prince encouraged people to do their own research. “Once you start going online and start looking at the reports and the peer-reviewed studies, you can’t help but get involved,” he said. Simpson will be at the Seniors Drop-in Centre in Penticton from 6-9 p.m on Tuesday, Aug. 27. Tickets start at $10 and will be available at the door. Proceeds from the event will cover his travel costs and also help fund his compassion club. pentictonwesternnews/news/220735641.html
