Argument for legalising cannabis after concern over psychoactive substances in vapes

The Irish Times
Legalising cannabis could simplify regulation compared to synthetic cannabinoids in vapes, argues a letter to The Irish Times.

Summary

The letter writer notes the HSE's call for agile legislation to address new psychoactive substances found in vapes. He proposes straightforward legislation to legalise organic cannabis and its derivatives, arguing that this would make the endless variations of synthetic cannabinoids redundant. He points to Canada's experience of legalising and taxing cannabis without catastrophic consequences. The writer signs off as Patrick Talty from Tulla, Co Clare.
