Hello friends of CannaVigilance,
There are two ways to view this week: Option one is that it’s that week of the year again when American cultural imperialism overrides good taste and logic all over the world. Option two is that you get to dress up any way you want without having to explain it to anybody. This last option gives way to many interpretations and we’ll just leave it at that. In the meantime, the world keeps on turning and things keep on happening, which is the reason you are reading this. So, just keep on reading.

A vigilant eye on cannabis news
