Ontario-born Alyssa Boston, Canada's bet to the Miss Universe 2019, wore a medical marijuana-inspired outfit during the pageant's National Costume Competition on Saturday.

The first country in the world that legalized marijuana was Uruguay.

The 24-year old beauty queen is an advocate for the legalization of medical cannabis as a solution for various health conditions.

During the recently-concluded swimsuit segment, it was mentioned that Boston also created a platform on social media with the hashtag #TalkAboutMe to spark discussions on mental health.
