Dana Albert Larsen (born April 14, 1971) is a Canadian author, politician and cannabis legalization activist.
Larsen was the editor of ''Cannabis Culture'' magazine from its creation in 1994 until 2005, producing 54 issues with publisher Marc Emery, who now also serves as editor.
Larsen was a founding member of both the Marijuana Party of Canada and the BC Marijuana Party. In the 2000 Canadian federal election, Larsen ran as the Marijuana Party candidate for the riding of West Vancouver-Sunshine Coast, receiving 3% of the vote.〔West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country〕 In the 2001 British Columbia provincial election, Larsen ran as a BC Marijuana Party candidate in the Powell River-Sunshine Coast riding, receiving 3.5% of the vote.〔Powell River-Sunshine Coast
After the 2001 election, Larsen became the Leader of the BC Marijuana Party. In 2003, Larsen resigned from both Marijuana parties and joined the New Democratic Party.
In 2005, Larsen founded a group called "End Prohibition, NDP Against the Drug War."〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.endprohibition.ca )〕 Larsen has since claimed that End Prohibition has been instrumental in passing drug-policy resolutions through the provincial NDP in British Columbia, Saskatchewan and Ontario.〔(【引用サイトリンク】date=2006-02-20 )
In 2006, Larsen co-founded the Vancouver Seed Bank, a business which sells many seed varieties from their storefront and also across Canada by mail-order, including those for banned and controversial psychoactive plants such as marijuana, poppies, peyote and coca.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.vancouverseedbank.ca/catalog/ )
In 2007, Larsen released a book called ''Hairy Pothead and the Marijuana Stone'', a pot-laden Harry Potter parody published and distributed across North America by Cannabis Culture Magazine.
He is also the author of the Pot Puzzle Fun Book, released in 2000,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cannabisculture.com/articles/1678.html )〕 the editor of Grow Like a Pro, a marijuana growing guide released in 2004,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.amazon.com/Grow-like-Pro-Marijuana-Advantage/dp/0932551602/ )〕 and the creator of The Tokers Bowl Board Game.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cannabisculture.com/newstore/productpage.cgi?num=111 )
In 2008, he was the federal New Democratic Party candidate for the riding of West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast—Sea to Sky Country for the 2008 election, however, he resigned on September 17, after videos he had filmed for Pot-TV in 1999 were released to the media, which showed him taking LSD and smoking marijuana.
In November 2008, Larsen announced the opening of the Vancouver Medicinal Cannabis Dispensary, located almost next door to the Vancouver Seed Bank. The Dispensary is operated by a non-profit society of which Larsen is a Director.〔 〕 In July 2010, the Dispensary opened a second location, located in Vancouver's West End.〔http://www.theprovince.com/life/Medical+marijuana+dispensary+opens+Vancouver+West/3066062/story.html〕
