[extropy-chat] Ultra Vires nature of laws made in error?

[Extropian Agroforestry Ventures Inc.]

Can a law which is made based upon an incorrect , misleading or
unfactual basis be
questioned decades later and be amended or replaced to correct original
errors in its
original enactment?

Anybody anywhere ever come across such a contention?

The application is this:

In Canada Medical Cannabis is and has a consensus by the public and
representative organizations to be defined as a "natural health product"

Canada since July 2003 has a NHP act and regulations and bureaucracy.

The key issue used by health Canada to keep cannabis out of the NHPD
formulary and perview is that it is listed in the CDSA (controlled drugs
and substances act) and therefore can never become an NHP.

Natural health products have a full coverage of product safety, efficacy
regs..and can be prescribed the same as pharmaceuticals...
