    • I watched the full lecture on youtube, it really is great. I was inspired to continue my dreams despite all the obstacles I may think exist. I just hope when his kids are old enough that his interviews and lectures give them insight into who he really was. I couldn't imagine growing up with out my Papa!

    • I hope to lead a life like his; fulfilling my aspirations and dreams and having a wonderful attitude towards life--even in the face of great misfortune. He seems to have been an amazing man.

    • Thie above link will take you to Rick Simpson's movie "Run from the Cure" - about Rick's super concentrated hemp oil that cures terminal cancer and other diseases.

      Rick will be speaking at Dalhousie University in Halifax, Novia Scotia, Canada on October 4th, 2008, on behalf of the Chronic Pain Management Association of Canada.

      He will also be running for a seat in the Canadian Parliament in the next Federal Election.
