Mission to Legalize Coca Plants in Canada

I've been doing a lot of research on the coca plant in the last little while and feel that Canada should rethink it's current laws on coca. Of course I know that I myself can not legalize a plant, but I feel that Canada should start a campaign to legalize Coca. Like Marc Emery started a revolution to legalize marijuana in Canada, I think coca also needs to be considered. It seems like I've been reading nothing but articles on how countries are trying to eradicate the coca plant during the last month. Canada, primarily BC, has always led the way for trying new political and medical techniques in North America. Vancouver is the home of the only supervised safe injection site in North America. Of course Canda has the reputation of being a fairly pot friendly country, but all that may change with our new prime minister. I think that Canada needs more advocates for legalization now more than ever, and not just for marijuana. Coca seems like a good plant to start pushing for, as it has many health benefits when consumed orally. Also, coca naturally has alkaloids that block most of the effects of the cocaine alkaloid, so it's not like someone can buy a bunch of coca tea and get high off of it. If Canada legalized coca plants, it's another step in the direction of harm reduction, as well as opening up a new market and cash crop. I think it's time we turned our focus to legalizing all naturally occuring plants in Canada, especially now that Stephen Harper is in office. What do you think?
