Germany on the brink of legalizing cannabis | DW News
One topic in the coalition talks to form a new government in Germany is the legalization of cannabis products. All three parties are in favour of a regulated system for cultivation, trade, and sale. German pharmaceutical companies are also hoping for a boost from this.
When cannabis was legalized in Canada three years ago, many customers were eager to make the first legal purchase of marijuana. Today, the legal cannabis industry in Canada posts more than two billion euros in sales annually. The government there closely monitors cultivation and sales.

#Cannabis #Legalization #420
Wie illegal er damals noch war….
Come on uk 🇬🇧
Finally
TLRY LETS GOOOO
Finally! As a german I cant wait for this. Fought for this for years. We welcome everyone who wants to visit Germany for smoking Weed 😉 If we do something serious here you can expect the best products.
2:24 is she laughing at his german accent? bruh
I still think that i would go to the netherlands just because of the awesome people, culture, everyone speaks good english and the architecture of whole netherlands. Its just much better than Germany. I think the weed will may be a little bit better in germany but Netherlands has also good weed and the other plus points.
in germany sprout seeds are illegal.
"classified as class 4 drug, like heroine and cocaine" erm… right lol 🙂
Imagine if cannabis had been legal before the world wars. Things woulda been alot more peaceful.
Goddamn, the whole world will look to legalize cannabis when you have world class players as examples like Canada which is big in the field of electronic patents and Germany feels like one complete nation with everything. When Germany legalize it, it’s a short matter of time until Denmark will follow the same path.
The narrator sound like she blazed it before the video
That Doogie was sagging
thta guy they interwiev was high
WE’VE MADE IT
Imagine everyone walking with a smile on their faces ☺️😮💨💨
POV: You are waiting for the UK to finally legalize cannabis
Fantastic news for the whole of Germany. Netherlands are shaking right now, I can almost guarentee the Netherlands will go full on legalisation (instead of their weird look the other way status), right after Germany to keep their tourists coming.
UK to follow, and after a few years of watching the success of other countries, then the scandinavian countries will pursue and hop on board.
They legalized it today
I’m glad more countries are deciding to send the world a message that the war on cannabis was one of the worst decisions made by authoritarians/tyrants.
It Just got confirmed 😤😤🙏🏼🙏🏼
Lung 🫁 cancer here we come lol
lol, Germans and weed
I’m not sure cannabis, but sharia law for sure
Pray for us
When I found out that one lady in the uk (with a mysterious hard to diagnose ilness) is being supplied through the UK government already, I decided I would cultivate whatever I needed personally. I’m still waiting for police to come through the door. You can jail me for the rest of my life. If she gets medicine, I get medicine.
Ist der Felix da aufgeregt?
They just announced to legalized it. The decision has been made.
The UK MP’S needs to wake up & see the benefits of medical cannabis…
The decision has been made, weed is going to be legal here, in Germany! 🥳
Its pathetic thst grown adults cannot choose what they want to consume, its funny how out leader and Governments only legalize what kills us, there has never been a recorded death due to Cannabis, hundreds of thousands die every year from alchohol and tobacco, the healing properties of Cannabis shld be enough to legalize it, German elites will legalize it only when they have guaranteed THEY will make billions of revenue of it, a plant that belongs to this planet and all of us alike.
02:25 , am I just high or is someone laughing in the background? xd
It will be legalized! 💚😍✨
Yes baby… legalize
Finally some good gas
2:20 definitely hit one before the interview😂
Do it Germany!💚
The most important fact here is that there are about 250000 criminal proceedings because of possesion of small amounts of weed per year in germany(costs money,time and personal),the police is very strict, espcially with enforcing laws around driving entoxicated,in a routine car-control in the middle of the week anny traces of substances from a nice weekend can cost you your drivinglicens,you have to attend drugscreenings over a couple of months and pass a mental-health-test to get it back,this can even happen when you for example got caught smoking weed in the park,if you own a car (registered on your name)you may get a courtletter for the weed and another one from the registration-office(screening,mental-health-test). The criminalisation of weedconsumers feels out-of-date in these days,there was one prohibition in the past that failed and I don´t feel the second has been working good either,after almost 40 years it´s time for a change.
인구감축을 위해서 뭔짓을 못하겠느냐 !
Hope they legalize it in Germany and here in Minnesota so I can listen to heldmaschine ein traum. Got to smoke up with some good German metal:)
legalization is a trap
Decriminalize it
I’m from germany and I don’t believe anything, before I see it with my own eyes. Parties and politicians keep telling us for years they want to legalize. But only thing they want is our vote. I think you guys have a wrong picture about us and you would be shocked if you’d know how slow and conservative germany is.
it sounds so surreal to me, if i think DEUTSCHLAND & Cannabis… wuuuuuut? hahahaha well then soon i can say goodbye forever to the paranoia and being literally forced to be scared from the police
YES jah bless
Legalization should always include self-grow. Otherwise it’ll be just for profit control
If germany legalised weed, make no doubt about it, this man would become richer than anything you could dream up.
finally! I’m dutch and this makes me so happy
Thank God. I don’t know why but first I read "Cannibalism".
ENDLICCHHHHHHHHH WURD AUCH MAL ZEIT
