The high North : Cannabis in Canada

"In 2018, Canada became only the second country in the world to legalize cannabis. The High North is a groundbreaking collection that examines the run-up to legalization and its aftermath, while disrupting widely accepted narratives about legalization in Canada. What does cannabis legalization really mean for the public, governments, and the Canadian legal system? ... From the first appearance of cannabis in Canada, and the advent of current-day dispensaries, to the mental health implications of legal weed, and the plight of workers in the cannabis economy, The High North offers a comprehensive critique of the many aspects of legalization. To quote the Grateful Dead: what a long, strange trip it's been."--
