Now Canada faces a true test of its national conscience. Will the people of Canada acquiesce to the persecution of a seriously ill person simply to continue the charade of "researching" medical marijuana?

MARIJUANA CRUSADER TO GET JURY TRIAL

Gaunt, frail, but unapologetic, a wheelchair-bound Grant Krieger got his wish yesterday -- a trial before a jury of his peers.

But Krieger may have to spend months behind bars before he gets to try to convince 12 fellow-Calgarians that he should be allowed to grow and distribute pot for medicinal reasons.

The medical marijuana crusader app-eared briefly in provincial court, where lawyer Adriano Iovinelli elected a judge and jury trial on his behalf.

Wearing standard Calgary Remand Centre blue overalls, Krieger, 45, made no comment after rolling himself into court in a wheelchair.

But outside court his lawyer spoke volumes, saying his client's health is rapidly deteriorating because he can't get the pot which alleviates his multiple sclerosis pain.

"He needs the marijuana to live," said Iovinelli, whose client has been denied bail because he refuses to promise not to distribute the the drug to other sick individuals.

"He used to be in a wheelchair prior to using marijuana."

When Krieger appeared in court last Friday, he was able to stand.

Marie Krieger said pot has been a lifesaver for her husband. "It makes him able to walk like the rest of us, my God, isn't he entitled to that?" she said.

Following his court appearance, Krieger told the Sun he isn't confident he can strike an agreement with the Crown to gain his release on bail. "The Crown wants me to say I will not cultivate, but I'm not sure because I need to possess (it)," he said by telephone from the remand centre.

Krieger will have a Court of Queen's Bench jury trial date set Oct. 13
