Cannabis in Canada is still widely illegal. With a new government entering parliament in 2016, the odds of legalization, further criminalization or decriminalization of marijuana coming to fruition are still to be determined. But despite that, black market growers and grey market marijuana dispensaries are more prevalent than ever. And the sometimes dangerous, and legally dubious process of manufacturing weed oils and other concentrates is rising with growers investing tens of thousands of dollars to make sheets of potent pot wax.
With the legal fate of weed still in the balance, VICE host Damian Abraham went to BC, the Wild West of Canadian chronic, visited grows operating illegally or semi-legally, met concentrate manufacturers making large quantities of oil in spite of the law, and checked in on the exploding dispensary scene that the federal Conservative government is trying to shut down.

Canada's new government will legalize (control, regulate tax) and shut down this insanely rich and powerful Cannabis Cartel; the MMAR growers who profit enormously from prohibition with their insane patient plant limits of 100 up to 500 plants. They have no regulation, inspection or taxation and launder millions into legit businesses.
Could you make a tube of pot wax and just hold a flame a few inches underneath it to smoke? LOL
fake voice is annoying as fuck
Vice please find some quality grows.. These dudes are talking about fire tree but every single video clip of kush you have shown looks mediocre. The green house hell even outdoor in California looks way better then this indoor. And don't get me started with the indoor down here. Cut off these mediocre amateur growers Vice. Contact me to see my buddies farm in California next season.
Lol 16:00
We're in it for the patients.. Oh this shatter here. About a hundred dollars per gram.. Lmfao. This dude full of shit.
Wow Vice that's smart give tape to a woman who claims shes cured her sons cancer with cannabis oil 3 times and can't even pronounce the type of cancer, that's not going to cause harm to someone on here thinking they should just smoke cannabis instead and stop their real treatment from a fucking doctor.
ja mexicana and cocaina
If the states wish to legalize Marijuana then why must we stop them? I know it possibly have bad effects on your lungs and in some cases your brain. The right to decide is in the hands of the people and their votes. I'm a christian and feel the same way about gay marriage. God gave us free will. God has given us our right to decide whether we want to commit sins or not.
Getting Impatient waiting for Legalization, lets make it happen already please.
21:58 "and Guy Fawkes was an anarchist after all" maybe you should cut back on the weed g
every stoner should litter untill they lagalize it….
