It's impossible to say that it is a 'lesser harmful' substance as like you say it is down essentially to tolerance levels and inherant factors, as well as the strain used.
9/10 cannabis is smoked though, therefore the user is at the same risk from carcinogens as tobacco smokers.
Hello jeebs
I doubt employers will welcome this change then, how will it affect them..
Will they still be able to carry out these tests for a legal substance?
One major difference is if you are an alcoholic if you stop then your organs recover, once a psychological change has occured it's irreversible.
To me that's what makes it more dangerous.
