Zusammenfassung:Provides comparative health information about delta9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the primary psychoactive drug in cannabis, and ethanol (ethyl alcohol), the psychoactive drug in alcoholic beverages, particularly in relation to health-related harms caused by each. Emphasises the greater harm caused by ethanol and the irrationality of New Zealand's current drug laws, in light of the upcoming referendum on legalising cannabis.
