Catch a fire : the blaze and bust of the Canadian cannabis industry / by Kaplan, Ben,author.;
"The untold story of the $131 billion Canadian cannabis blow out. Canopy Growth founder Bruce Linton didn't invent marijuana, but he figured out how to turn a Canadian start-up selling the stuff into a $22-billion international buzz. Catch a Fire goes behind the scenes of Justin Trudeau's legalization gambit and the stoned pioneering lawyers who helped make weed gummies more valuable than U.S. Steel. From the dope dealers of the 1960s to the never-before-told bribery accusations during Covid-19, cannabis historian Ben Kaplan speaks with the dealers, stealers, and renegade freaks who made and then lost money with the combined chutzpah of Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and Sam Bankman-Fried.
