It’s High Time You Make These 20 Vegan Cbd and Cannabis Recipes
420 Day is here again, so why not celebrate with vegan cannabis-infused recipes? The day supposedly got its namefrom a group of California schoolkids in 1971, who set out to find an abandoned crop of marijuana as laid out in a treasure map. They arranged to meet in the afternoon at 4:20 which has entered popular culture as an alternative name for cannabis. CBD is short for Cannabidiol, which makes up 40 percent of the…

Seth Rogen Joins Calls for Cannabis Amnesty in Canada
Actor Seth Rogen is joining calls for the Canadian government to expunge the criminal records of drug users who were convicted of simple pot possession. Rogen used this year's 4/20 event to draw attention to the Cannabis Amnesty campaign, which wants the government to issue "blanket pardons" for the offence now that recreational marijuana has been legalized across the country.

What the Secrets of Ancient Graves Tell Us About Our Long Relationship With Cannabis
One day, about 2,500 years ago in western China, a man was laid in his grave. A wooden bed was placed in the grave under him, and a pillow of reeds under his head. Around him, they placed earthenware pots, and on top of him, as a blanket or shroud, they laid 13 fully grown, uprooted female Cannabis indica plants, with their roots placed below his pelvis, and the branches and flowers extending toward his…

10 Ways to Celebrate 420 in Toronto
Easter and Passover aren’t the only holidays being celebrated this weekend. Saturday marks Canada’s first legal 420 festivities. April 20 has long been touted the unofficial day to celebrate cannabis culture, but not many know why the day was chosen. According to TIME, the term 420 stemmed from a group of friends at San Rafael High School in Marin County, California. The group, who dubbed themselves “the Waldos,” often gathered at 4:20 to smoke a…

Manitoba Marijuana Users Say ‘Astronomical’ Price of Legal Weed Is a Deterrent
Canadians have been able to legally buy recreational marijuana for six months, but some say the prices are still too high. “It’s basically three times the price,” said Taylor, whose identity Global News is protecting. “The price is the biggest factor for me right now.” For nearly three years, Taylor has been purchasing her weed illegally through an online site in British Columbia to help her calm her anxiety. But on Oct. 17, like hundreds…

Some in N.W.T. Still Waiting for Green Light on New Cannabis Stores
‘There’s a lot of money to be made here,’ says Inuvik town councillor. Wednesday marks six months since cannabis was legalized in Canada. At least one entrepreneur in the Northwest Territories hoped to be selling cannabis in a retail location by now, but he's not.

I’m Growing My Own Medicinal Cannabis and Asking the Police for Amnesty – Here’s Why
Fibromyalgia and a stroke in my 20s leave me in chronic pain – but after my landmark cannabis prescription was overruled, I refuse to go back to my costly prescription. In 1928, following centuries of cannabinoids being used in medicine, the UK made the decision to reclassify cannabis as an illegal substance based on its psychoactive effects, instead opting for other equally psychoactive compounds as legitimate medicine. Examples include anaesthetics, analgesics, anticonvulsants and anti-Parkinson drugs…
