The intention might be international but the current scope is not,there is a massive US bias. Regarding the organisations you mention I would suggest removing those and renaming the article
List of non-governmental anti-cannabis organizations. Otherwise we could end up with variations on National Anti-drugs Force for every country going, which is confusing without the country being named. Alternatively list the organisations by country or similar. --

Thank you. I appreciate your suggestions. Many of the organizations cross international borders, so categorizing as you offer isn't really practical. I think as it grows, the list will be broken down by types of organizations and campaigns, and other details. The content and perspective aren't US-centric.
Stoner Sloth is Australian, for instance. That's an example of non-US content. And the other important half is that the perspective isn't US-centric. The principle source, The Guardian, comes from a non-US perspective. --

Inline cites
Would be nice to get a cite for each org stating it is anti-cannabis. As our list grows it will be hard to relate each item to the references currently provided at the beginning. Some of the wikilinked article e.g.
Ku Klux Klan don't currently mention cannabis. --

Sure, but they weren't organsiations.
Operation Green Merchant for example seems to have been run by the DEA. In that the case the DEA would be the anti-cannabis organisation, and Operation Green Merchant would be one of the things they did.--

Have Blue Lives Matter expressed an anti-cannabis or anti-drug position anywhere? We certainly shouldn't imply it from the fact they are a police-related organisation.--

Agree somewhat, the Police can be listed because they have anti-cannabis departments, initiatives etc. However a organization supporting a anti-cannabis organization doesn't inherently transfer the stance on cannabis of the supported organization, unless it is expressed by the supporting organization themselves in their constitution or activities against cannabis.--
