It's not just Canada, the big pharmaceutical companies have to push this lie around the world. We have studies now to show how many fewer prescriptions are needed when cannabis is legal, it's striking. The drug industry in the US makes hundreds of billions of dollars, they will fight cannabis legalization tooth an nail wherever they can and however they can and they have unlimited money and political interest.

Did you happen to see today where John Boehner joined Acreage Holdings, a cannabis firm that produces and sells the drug in eleven states? He is now on their advisory board....so who knows where that will lead, he has a lot of clout on capitol hill.
No but that is good, what will end cannabis prohibition is the politicians getting hooked on the cash and tax revenues. No place that is currently taxing it will ever ban it or let the feds crack down.
You can say that again. If they were smart they'd legalize it and designate the tax revenue to paying off the deficit.
that's how we know that won't happen.
