THE PRINCIPLES AND AIMS

LEGALISE CANNABIS ALLIANCE

PRINCIPLES

• We believe the use of cannabis ought to be a matter of choice and not of law.
• We believe that the prohibition of cannabis is against the public interest.
• We believe that the prohibition of cannabis contravenes Human Rights.
• We believe that the prohibition of cannabis inhibits the use of a beneficial resource.
• We believe that the legalisation of cannabis is a very important step that should be taken to benefit the people and their environment.

AIMS

• To hasten the full legalisation and utilisation of the cannabis plant for the good of the peoples of this world, on a local, national and international level.
