Thousands of people from the region and around the globe again made the annual pilgrimage to the Nimbin MardiGrass at the weekend. Now in its 22nd year, the MardiGrass festival and cannabis law-reform rally is the one day of the year where cannabis lovers come together in solidarity to celebrate a much maligned illegal herb, despite a continued police operation targeting festival goers with drug swab tests for drivers and sniffer dogs, see story in Local News.
