The Union: The Business Behind Getting High (2007) ================================================== 700mb 1:44:00 Movie Synopsis http://theunionmovie.com Ever wonder what British Columbia's most profitable industries are? Logging? Fishing? Tourism? Ever think to include marijuana? If you haven't, think again. No longer a hobby for the stereotypical hippie culture of the ’60s, BC's illegal marijuana trade industry has evolved into a seemingly unstoppable business giant, dubbed by those involved as 'The Union'. Commanding upwards of $7 billion Canadian annually, The Union’s roots stretch far and wide, directly and indirectly affecting all areas of our society. With 65% to 85% of all 'BC Bud' being exported to the United States, it's clear that the BC marijuana trade has become an international issue with consequences that extend far beyond our borders. When there are record profits to be made, who are the players, and when do their motives become questionable? -Why is marijuana illegal? -What health risks do we really face? -Does prohabition work? -What would happen if we taxed it? -Medicine, paper, fuel, textiles, food, etc. Are we missing something here? Follow filmmaker Adam Scorgie as he dives head first into Canada's most socially acceptable illegal activity. Along the way, Adam demsytifies the underground market and brings to light how such a large industry can function while remaining illegal. By interviewing experts from around the globe, including growers, clippers, police officers, criminalogists, economists, psychologists, medical doctors, politicians and pop culture icons, Scorgie explores the cause and effect nature of the business behind getting high. Nobody's innocent in this exploration of an industry that may be profiting more by being illegal. Join Adam Scorgie as he unravels the mystery of The Union. IMDB Synopsis: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1039647/ The basic point of this documentary is to present the facts about Marijuana. It focuses less on the BC market and more on the reasons why marijuana should be viewed in the same light as alcohol and tobacco. It argues for the legalization of marijuana. The argument is compelling and factual with many legititamate sources. ================================================== There were only two copies of this movie that I found out there. The First was an AVI that looked like a low quality YouTube video. The second was a 1.6GB WMV. I took the WMV, and ripped it to your typical 700mb DivX video. I also cut the few seconds of the DVR screen that was on both copies of this movie. The WMV gave me problems, I had to use like 4 different apps to get this right. So I hope you enjoy this. The upload speed will be bad until there are more seeders... But, I felt I had to upload this anyways. I wanted to give back to this community. Forgot to add- I'm not trying to step on any toes with basically re-releasing someone else's work. No one else had the good quality picture with the normal file size. ================================================== MD5: 97c1cc21f1df0989c2bf1bf54eb8b413
