Germany announced plans to legalize cannabis for recreational use to make Germany Europe’s “most liberal cannabis legalization project.” However, cannabis will be taxed, limits will be placed on THC content for adults under 21, advertising for cannabis will be prohibited, neutral outside packaging will be required, and the market will be tightly regulated. So, in other words, although recreational marijuana will be legal, there won’t be anything resembling marijuana freedom.
