The British Indian Hemp Drug CommissionReport (1894), La Guardia Commission Report (1944), the Baroness Wooten Report (1968), the Canadian Government’s Le Dain Commission (1970), and the Shaffer Report (1972) reflect one hundred years’ worth of research concluding that marijuana, America’s favorite intoxicant, is relatively harmless. Certainly edible and concentrated cannabis products need better regulation.
