    So not only will you be able to get it, the people who get it to you can’t be big corporate shitheels.

    Cannabis Social Clubs have existed in Europe for a while under a legal gray area, e.g. in Spain. I imagine that’s why Germany went with a non-profit cooperative model instead of the US’ (recent) for-profit corporate approach. Although Canada’s approach of a state monopoly is similar to what Norway does with alcohol, which is another way to socialize the profits of drugs.

      We originally tried the usual approach (or at least a combination of both), but because of EU laws, it wasn’t possible to do a law which gives stores permission to sell them, so this was the best thing one could still get.
