Forgive me if I am ignorant and mistaken, however I am fairly sure that the chemical compounds you are referring to are called 'Cannabinoids' rather than 'Canavanoids'.
And to address those who are curious about why it is still illegal a couple people up there have it nailed, it was Dupont and the whole story is really rather repulsive. That wood paper company would have suffered a huge loss in profits since hemp is essentially a wondercrop. the seeds are very nutritious, and can be reduced to oils and used to manufacture a wide array of incredibly useful and environmentally positive products (compared to wood paper which pollutes the earth, and utilizes trees which take an entire lifetime to regrow, as opposed to a single season).
Andrew Mellon was the secretary of state and incidentally the primary investor of DuPont. Additionally, he appointed his railroad working no highschool degree having nephew in-law Harry J. Anslinger as the Commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics. Harry had credentials in engineering and business management, not science.
Anyway, Harry is the guy who published vastly falsified and atrociously inaccurate "scientific proof" that the drug marihuana makes people axe murder their families and will always cause violent psychosis.
(marijuana is a bastardized slang mexican term {marihuana} used to disguise the fact that was actually the wondercrop cannibis which they used for damn near everything.)
I could go on and on and on but if youre interested you should check out the intraweb for more.
