Cannabis in Montserrat, the British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean Leeward Islands, is illegal under British law.
In 1994, Montserrat seized 3 kg (7 lb) of cannabis and destroyed 240,600 cannabis plants.[1]
Montserrat has no drug testing facilities, neither in its prison nor in civil society, but use of Class A drugs is minimal, with the island's drug issues largely confined to cannabis.[2]
Black the Ripper was a notable Montserratian who advocated for the rights of Cannabis use during his life and died in 2020.[3]
