The Union: The Business Behind Getting High-2007-DivX-velvetfog

The Union: The Business Behind Getting High Canada, 2007, 105 min Directed By: Brett Harvey Executive Producer: Adam Scorgie Producers: Graeme Flannigan, Stephen Green, Kieran MaGuire Camera: Brett Harvey Editor: Stephen Green Music: Michael Champion http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1039647/ Highly entertaining as well as informative, The Union takes a look at British Columbia's ever-expanding marijuana industry. Beginning with a brief history of the use of marijuana in North America, director Brett Harvey takes us on a journey that includes interviews with growers, clippers, criminologists, politicians, doctors, police officers and pop culture icons to illuminate the business of BC bud and how it is that such a powerful industry can function so successfully while remaining illegal. With enormous profits to be made, he questions who benefits the most from the current state of affairs and comes up with some not-so-surprising answers. In examining more closely the propaganda of the anti-marijuana lobby, some unexpected facts and figures surface regarding the health risks of marijuana as well as the economic, agricultural and societal benefits of growing hemp, and the current laws prohibiting such crops in North America. As an industry that brings in seven billion dollars annually, the business of growing and distributing marijuana is even more profitable for those involved on both sides of the law due to the prohibition. The Union is a fascinating and in-depth look at one of BC's most profitable industries and the players involved, from the growers and dealers to pharmaceutical companies and builders of private prisons. Winner, Outstanding Documentary Feature, 2007 Winnipeg International Film Festival. This film is nominated for the National Film Board's Best Canadian Documentary Award.

@johnefp - They gave me a skull because I have been seeding torrents on TPB for the past five years.

Thank you! This is such a great documentary.
There's another documentary out there about marijuana called "Escape To Canada". Well, 1/2 is about weed & the other half is about gay marriage but a fascinating well done look at both subjects & worth downloading if you can find it.

@gared111 - I have been seeding "Escape to Canada" for the past 10 months. You can get it here:

Excellent Download, very fast. Thank you.
Funny how many prescription medication MJ would render useless. The way I see it, government lobbyists in pharmaceuticals are the reason MJ hasn't been legalized.

IMPORTANT:
No need to torrent, as the movie has been uploaded to YouTube by the film makers in high quality (480p)

kiwij (2012-08-06)

Video quality 1/10

ramwen (2013-04-19)

Video quality is really bad. I don't understand why people would even upload this kind of shit. 700MB for 336*256? Are you kidding me? For anyone who wants a good quality just look for the HD version on youtube and download it with KeepVid or Jdownloader.

ssent1 (2014-10-20)

You can watch in HD (up to 2160p/4K) on YouTube.
