While Grenada criminalizes , the rest of the world has monetized marijuana for medicinal and recreational use. The white lightening rum that is legal and causes so much misery in Grenada with alcoholism . Can someone please enlighten the politicians who are unaware of these simple facts
The conservative colonial way sets Grenada back. Places like Grenada should have been leaders on the decriminalization of marijuana. Now places like Grenada will have to catch up. The Caribbean is already importing marijuana for medicinal purposes. Then there is ole talk of reducing the import bill.
Legalize it… do what many countries do: legalize it, authorize shops to sell it, tax it and spend money on schools and other worthwhile programs to help the citizens of Grenada. It just ganja man, been on the island for long-long time. Plus is good medicine for many people and in many ways.
That is a lot of weeed.
