The use of illegal substances such as heroin, cocaine and cannabis will not be punished in Norway but treated instead. The Scandinavian country known for its zero-tolerance policy towards psychoactive substances made a historic step in its drug policy reform. The Storting, Norway's Parliament, passed the law with a large majority backed by parties across the political spectrum.
