Before modern-day regulations, Cannabis was practically legal around the world for a long period of time. Esentially, the “Industrial Revolution” brought forth implementations that started rgulating Marijuana use for the public and slowly shifted that legality into illegality. 

But nowadays, the tables are turning, and the world is step by step showing efforts to legalize this heavenly plant for industrial, medical, and even recreational uses. So where is weed legal now? This blog will discuss all the countries that have legalized weed until now.

Canada

Canada was the 2nd country in the world to legalize the cultivation, possession, and consumption of cannabis and its products nationwide, and might we add, they’ve worked wonders with that. Canada is famous worldwide for their highly developed research and investment towards the cannabis industry leaving their weed becoming some of the world’s best buds.
