All plants have medicinal value to them including the coca leaf. All people should have the right to choose what medicines they want to use for their own body especially if it's natural. Instead if big pharma drugs that cause more health issues than natural medicines. Legalize or decriminalization All natural medicines so people are free to choose what they want to for their own body for therapeutic usage.

Every plant should be legal. Hard times farmers could find a new soccer of revenue away from the illegal drug trade. Then like moonshine eventually everything pulls in line. Education as the standard vs prohibition. Same model as cannibus, only then fentynal would be a distant memory.

It's a known fact that many addictive substances are rather inocuous when taken by mouth. The way of intake defines the addictive potential of substances. If smoked or injected even caffeine can be just as addictive as cocaine. Drinkable cocaine became illegal because of a certain political purpose of a certain non-expert. Let's bring it back!

This tea is nothing compared to marijuana. Coffee has a strong stimulating effect compared to a cup of coca tea. The coca plant has antidepressant properties like other supplements that are legal on the market such as L-theanine or 5-HTP. It is a serotonin agonist. It is a myth that this plant alters the mind. Therefore, chewing gums, coca candies and coca tea should be made legal.

Coca Plant is a scared plant of South Americans, and can cause great revenue for Canada and even the US if they follow.

Coca is not cocaine! Coca in its natural form is of indispensable pharmacologic benefit on the constant agony and suffering of the multitude who have to live with asthma, bronchitis, and sinusitis! In 1943, following the attack on Pearl Harbor, president Franklin Roosevelt had to address the nation on national tv. Unknown to most people, the president suffered from chronic sinus problems and it's now declassified that upwards to 6hrs previous to going live on tv, his doctors treated him with cocaine powder (inserting a wet q-tip inside cocaine hcl, and repeatedly inserting it inside the nasal cavity). This enabled the president to carry on with his duties and gave what is to this day one of the best speeches without any impediment from his otherwise chronic sinusitis! Further more, coca is an anti oxidant and helps out with a myriad of other issues, it relieves fatigue and clears the mind without increasing blood pressure - caffeine found in a cup of coffee increases blood pressure more than a 'moderate' amount of coca leaves. Withdraw symptoms are less than that of coffee and require the user to partake in daily consumption for 10years+, even so users who stop hardly complain of any symptoms and they are in good health overall. The 2nd part is the economic benefit that coca products will bring to the GDP of the coca producing countries like Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. As a result of this Canada would also benefit, much like any other time a new herb with strong potential is discovered and becomes a blockbuster blowing up the market. One such example is the relatively new African Red Bush or Rooibos, as is its lesser popular cousin African Honey Bush - both originate in South Africa's Eastern Cape and ever since their arrival on the North American market they've seen extreme success, becoming 2nd only to Green, White and Black Tea. This has benefited the communities of mostly native/aboriginal people in the region and brought their tribes many benef

If marijuana is legal then keeping mate de coca illegal is plain ignorance. One can get high on many legal substances like cocoa. Mate de coca kept my head straight in high altitudes of Peru.

All plants that can have some positive benefit to people should be attainable for that purpose.
