Mexico proposes the creation of Cannsalud, a government monopoly on the distribution of marijuana

The Morena party, founded by the president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, proposed a law in Congress that includes creating a public company to regulate the sale of marijuana.

In accordance with the initiative to reform the General Health Law and the Federal Criminal Code, published in the Parliamentary Gazette, Mexicans could grow their own marijuana without the need for a license or permit, provided it is for personal consumption.

In addition, the bill provides for the creation of a public company called Cannsalud , which will be authorized exclusively to buy cannabis and its derivatives from individuals . . .
