America is a benchmark for the legalization of different aspects related to cannabis. Highlight examples of some US states as well as Mexico or Uruguay, the last to take such related decisions. Now, Colombia wants to join the wave of change in favor of the legalization of marijuana itself. This is one of the Latin American countries that has suffered most from drug trafficking issues.

This November its president, Juan Manuel Santos, announced that it will soon be ready a regulatory decree the use, production and export of medicinal marijuana. Santos has claimed to be aware that the demand for this to happen is high and also that there are companies in Canada and the United States who use the grass to create a variety of therapeutic treatments. With these statements, the country gives a big jump in the policy that has been maintained and is very similar to the drug war led for years by its American neighbor.



The Colombian government has taken other decisions to change course. It has promoted a program to replace illegal crops of certain products by other permitted and has even stopped fumigating plantations such prohibited, as he usually did.

Santos wants to follow the example of Mexico, Brazil and Canada, which have started to allow the import of cannabidiol, a compound of cannabis that is typically used to create drugs that help children with epilepsy. In Canada, the use of medical marijuana is legal throughout the country and export and import specific purposes and even research with new strains that may be useful for patients is allowed.

Although this is only the beginning, in Colombia know that legalization will give you many not only medical but also economic, benefits since the legal export of grass could become big business."

And NEWC is the number one?
