Cannabis should be legal. Every fact-based, peer-reviewed piece of scientific and political research produced within the last twenty years verifies this fact. So why is cannabis usage still something that is stigmatized and persecuted within our modern societies? The obvious example is the power and funding of the police state coupled with the influence of the pharmaceutical industry, but what exactly have we done besides complain about it? The purpose of this working paper is to address issues the cannabis community is having in gaining legitimacy and propose a way forward for legalization initiatives in North America.
