In a first for Canada, Jewish journalist Solomon Israel's become a full-time cannabis reporter. He was hired by the Winnipeg Free Press in 2017 to cover all aspects of the burgeoning cannabis industry. He now writes for the organisation's dedicated cannabis news website, The Leaf, which documents anything and everything about the shift in Canada from Reefer Madness to a legal lifestyle option. Solomon speaks to Jim about how the legalisation of non-medical cannabis in Canada in October 2018 is working out, and what life covering the cannabis beat entails.
