“…O’Gorman [ 49 ] argues that normalization of substance use not only occurs within geographic and socio-cultural contexts but also results from the intersectional context of class, race, and gender. It is through these complexities that substance use can be simultaneously normalized and positioned as deviant [ 50 ]. In The North, one participant’s expression of distress at “becom[ing] one of those reserve Indians” highlights the ways in which pervasive colonial narratives of substance use in First Nations communities have positioned contextually normalized patterns and types of substance use as deviant.…”

Qualitative research indicates that many young people report the illegal status of cannabis as a deterrent 67. Even if only two in every 92 current non-users were tipped into use this would mean an extra 100 000 of Europe’s 16 year olds using cannabis monthly, resulting in thousands of additional cases of dependence, depression, anxiety, and psychosis 23…”

“…Informal rules reflected in advice to novice users vary, as would be expected, to indicate the wide array of social circumstances in which the drug is used.
