Here is an Interesting Article on the Legalization of Marijuana in Canada
It looks like we will need to learn a whole new Vocabulary around the Booming Pot Industry...
Get ready for Beautiful Sun Grown Heirloom Flowers ....
On a cultural level, the legal pot industry is reaching for some respectability through Language. Public relations people urge reporters to refrain from using the words marijuana or pot. They prefer cannabis. Pot that is grown outdoors is “sun grown.” A joint sold in a retail store is a “pre-roll.” Niche brands market their buds as “heirloom flowers.”
Legalization is still a work in progress in California, but there’s no denying the capitalist zeal of the nascent, legalized industry. Decades ago, pot was something you needed to keep hidden from the authorities in the state. In today’s California it’s advertised on billboards and on the sides of buses. And the emails keep coming. A marijuana-themed cookbook, peppermint-flavored cannabis mouth spray to treat aches and pains, a global equity fund investing in the hemp industry, a cannabis superstore in Las Vegas.
And pot-infused “marshmallows.”
