Cannabiz report…Legalise Cannabis WA MP Dr Brian Walker has said social media and the education of politicians will play key roles in nudging Australia towards legalisation.
Dr Walker told Cannabiz a twin approach — aimed at the public and politicians — will help change the narrative around cannabis after decades of prohibition.
He said: “Firstly, engage the people using social media, press, activities. We should energise the people to rise up and demand that a healthy, healing herb be available to all.
“Secondly, we need to present to parliaments (all over Australia) the evidence for safety, scientific need, financial possibilities, revenue options, and psychosocial improvements that will combine to raise the standard of living of Australians. The legislators can then craft the laws needed.”
