Ways to consider non-medical cannabis : reasoning from conceptual analogues / by Austin Lawrence.: PS113-1/2016-11E-PDF

"Cannabis legislation and regulation is a complex undertaking. This paper provides a framework for organizing approaches to thinking about cannabis regimes by considering the psychoactive commodity analogues of alcohol, tobacco and natural health products. An understanding of the characteristics and semantic spaces that have been applied in the development of regimes to control currently legal psychoactive commodities can be instructive in rationalizing and organizing the dialogue related to the legalization of psychoactive cannabis"--Abstract, p. 1.
