Although I do think cannabis was made illegal to stop its many uses, the medical use was decreasing around the time of prohibition. THC was not discovered until the 1960s so in the early 1900s cannabis tinctures had unreliable potency. THC could not be tested for (or CBD) so they could not standardize the active components easily. It lost favor to new single molecule drugs with the advent of the hypodermic needle.

But the entire oil-pharma empire was made upon breaking herbal medicine in general. But reductionist medicine was working really well at the time, with the discovery that vitamins (one molecule) could cure diseases like scurvey and rickets, or antibiotics could cure infections people just assumed single drugs would work for everything. And well the capitalists could patent those drugs and they they started making herbalism into "quackery"

it'll be interesting when there's 1000 dispensaries in Canada and a huge supply of green market weed at around 1k/lb. they want to convert that whole market to selling lp weed, no concentrates or edibles. I've heard rumors of LPs already acquiring dispensaries, for client lists and locations.
dont know whay any LP would bother buying a dispensary. If they get caught in illegal activity of any kind they could have their licences pulled. Why risk it?
Besides almost all of the LPs are setting up offices, in high traffic areas across the country, for med mariconsulting purposes. They help you fill out your forms and such and then set you up to buy their schwag. The thing is...these "offices" are obviously every easily converted to dispensary set ups, in great locations...
So... i dunno about this...
