Now, would-be legalizers are trying a new tack: direct contact with members of parliament (MPs). "Cannabis canvassers" recruited via the Internet have been paying visits to politicians in an effort to win them
over, and it seems to be working. The canvassers have already collected the signatures of five MPs, including former health minister Marek Balicki.

Legalization of personal possession (or decriminalization) would be a step forward for Poland. Under current law, possession of even small amounts of marijuana is a serious criminal offense.

Poland became a member of the European Union on 1st May 2004 and has a population of around 38 million people.

Should the quest for decriminalisation be successful, Poland joins the Czech Republic, Holland, Belgium, Spain, Portugal, Austria, Germany and Switzerland, European states which have decriminalised cannabis in varying degree's over the last few years with the only noteable exception being Holland, which decriminalised the personal possession and use of cannabis over 30 years ago and as a result, now has one of the lowest drug user counts not only in Europe, but in the entire world.
