The Board of Directors of Civilized, the online marijuana magazine launched in Saint John now includes the former publisher of Vanity Fair magazine, Mitchell Fox who will also be an advisor.
The founder of Civilized, Derek Riedle, says legalisation of marijuana in Colorado has resulted in the black market drying up with a beneficial effect as teen use of pot has actually dropped.[
Riedle says the marijuana industry is estimated to be worth 60 billion dollars with most of that being in the black market but savvy investors realise how great the potential is for further growth that will accompany legalisation in more jurisdictions.
