CBC's sad attempt at hip-tv, Zed, did a special episode on Cannabis and poses the question "Is there a cannabis culture?" Some good tunes and short movies they think Stoner's would like, but the highlight of the show is the interview with Dana Larsen............. Pot-TV More shows from Newshawks

freak,
Wed Apr 9 08:32:19 2003 This show is fucking boring.
But still, it is an attempt at getting pot tolerance out there to everyone, and I guess it's a good thing. better than all the anti-pot shows that go on the air constantly.
seems like this show tried to keep a very unbiased attitude, which is commendable.
btw gj dana on the interview.

Dana Larsen,
Sat Mar 22 21:18:02 2003 They spent days in pre-interview questions and discussions, but used almost nothing of any of that.
The empty chairs were because people like Emery and Renee Boje weren't able to make it, although they had both given many weeks advance notice that they couldn't come.
I also talked about pot culture in India and many other related topics, but they didn't use any of it.

dickduck,
Sat Mar 22 15:29:17 2003 Kudo's to Zed and CBC for this production. It may not be all people want it to be or think it should be however, it did air on national television and does show a less than negative vantage; perhaps even a supportive stance to cannabis and consumption. This in of itself is a victory for the culture.
be well
