In Brazil, the Ministry of Justice asked for the rejection of the bill that legalizes the cultivation of Cannabis for medicinal and industrial purposes. In a technical note signed by Executive Secretary Tercio Issami Tokano, the ministry refuted the proposal and cited seven subordinate departments and bodies with the same position. “If, in our country, even social programs with resources by modest beneficiaries have significant percentages of fraud, imagine the legalization of companies and associations that may have their activities intersected with the second-largest illicit market” according to the National Secretariat of Drug Policy.
