Is pot illegal in Canada?

I know this is a separate issue from Industrial Hemp, but if this is true( possesion of marijuana is legal), why is there still all this red tape around industrial hemp? Here is yet another link from youtube . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzYJUIXkl7g . If what they are saying is true then there is no logical reason for the red tape around Hemp. As far as I can see, we are waiting for a judgement to be published from an appeals judge which was rendered in November. I do not know why there has been such a long delay and why have people been busted for holding small amounts since the law was deemed unconstitutional in 2001? I have more questions than answers at this moment. I think I will take the fellows advice in the video and call on my local MP to see what he knows about this. Have fun.
