It's not completely illegal, just illegal for recreational use. I'm a medical cannabis patient and use it manage symptoms of CPTSD (mainly insomnia and night terrors). It was not a difficult process in my experience.

I agree it should be legalised for recreational use though. But that would impact the profits for the alcohol and tobacco companies, so I don't see that changing unfortunately. I have hope, but I'm also realistic in that respect.
