It's a new day for marijuana, with mounting evidence about the potential medicinal benefits and a general public that's moving past "reefer madness" sensationalism about potential harms. It's a bias so deep-seated that even today, in the face of an ever-growing mountain of scientific evidence about marijuana's medicinal and therapeutic value, the federal government continues to ignore the likes of the American Medical Association, the American College of Physicians, the New England Journal of Medicine, the Lancet, and the American Cancer Society by maintaining its classification of cannabis as a Schedule I drug, claiming that it "has a high potential for abuse" with "no currently accepted medical use in treatment."

When I was a kid growing up in the 1960’s in Canada, we were taught in junior high school that Canada was the biggest producer and exporter of asbestos in the world. As of December 30, 2018, the Ministry of Environment will now “prohibit the import, sale, and use of asbestos as well as the manufacture, import, sale, and use of asbestos-containing products”. Although the harmful effects of asbestos on lungs was first identified almost one hundred years ago, and many countries started limiting its use in the 1970’s, still Canada attempted to block the efforts of the World Trade Organization to declare asbestos a hazardous material. And even though Canada finally stopped producing and exporting asbestos in 2012, it continued to allow products containing the hazardous substance to enter the country.
