New Zealand - Kaikohe’s main street had a distinctive aroma wafting down it last Wednesday and the culprit seemed to be a large green bus.

‘Mary Jane the Cannabus’ was visiting Kaikohe as part of a year long National Organisation for the Reform of Marijuana Laws national tour.

Driven by Dakta Green and Fooz, real names as stated on their drivers’ licences, the bus has hosted a protest daily at 4.20pm, for almost a year, in nearly every town from cape to cape.

"The protest involves smoking copious amounts of cannabis with anyone who wants to join in from that town," says Mr Green.

In Kaikohe, a group of about 20 locals inside and outside the bus puffed a joint to support Mr Green and Fooz’s cause. There were no police present at any stage of the protest. When contacted, Kaikohe police said they were unaware the bus was in town and that no complaints had been received.

Mr Green believes cannabis should be treated with the same laws that apply to alcohol.

He says a legal age limit would apply to minimise the effects on minors. It could also be a solution to economic downturn.

"If cannabis was legalised it could provide 20,000 jobs for Kiwis during next five years," he says. "And a regulated and taxed cannabis industry could yield more than $200 million for the taxman."
