The Union documentary originally was planned to be Anti-Pot

Q. SMtF: Have you always been supportive of marijuana, or what caused you to change your views?
A. A.S [The Union Director].: No, actually, I was very against marijuana when I was younger, I was somewhat of a jock in high school and believed everything that I was told about Cannabis, that it would make you stupid, lazy, go onto harder drugs. It wasn’t until we started filming The Union that my mind was changed, because originally all we wanted to do with The Union, was just an exposé of the B.C Bud industry, we never knew it would evolve into the educational piece it has become. It was because of interviews with former Police officers like Norm Stamper and scientist and doctors like Lester Grinspoon that really turn my perception, of what “I thought I knew” around.
