The '''Bloc Pot''' is a provincial [[political party]] in [[Quebec]], Canada, that is dedicated to ending [[cannabis (drug)|cannabis]] [[Prohibition (drugs)|prohibition]]. It has contested four provincial elections but it has failed to win any seats in the [[National Assembly of Quebec]]. The party was launched in 1997 by [[Marc-Boris St-Maurice]] as a way to push for political change to marijuana laws. He also went on to launch its federal offspring, the [[Marijuana Party of Canada]].<br />
