Buzz Kill: The Corporatization of Cannabis is the definitive account of cannabis legalization in Canada. It is a story of cronyism, greed, corruption, and strategic deceit of the public. Buzz Kill also describes more humane alternatives to drug policy reform which prioritize public health and social justice over corporate profits. Buzz Kill is published by Black Rose Books, Montreal.
