Why was pot illegal in the first place?

As you have no doubt heard a million times, marijuana became legal this year. And as we told you in our year-end show, not much changed. The more interesting story is how it became illegal in the first place. If you’ve heard CityNews Reporter Shauna Hunt join us on this podcast, you know she also hosts The Legal Potcast, and this is the kind of stuff she does—deep dives into the stories behind the pot industry. So today we’ll give you a taste of that—an episode of The Legal Potcast, featuring Shauna’s sit-down with author, professor and PhD Dan Malleck on the long and winding road of pot prohibition. Meanwhile, we’ll be back with fresh daily episodes, starting next week.
