Most of the research I've found involves the inhibition of cancer cells, not their destruction. Of course anything is possible. I think population control is the least of our worries, you'll find when a nation reaches a higher GNP that an effect of this is people having and desiring to have less children. Sure we're living longer, but we also are desiring more commonly two children at the most and in most post-industrial nations their population has leveled off and is not significantly rising.
As far as age, well our life expectancy has dramatically increased, due to antibiotics primarily. I doubt marijuana has had any effect on this, if any it's inversely related as life expectancy has increased since prohibition.
Cancer in itself is typically diagnosed at later stages in life, I believe it to be a natural part of aging. As we have raised life expectancy, so too are we seeing increases in the number of cases of cancer. Of course some cancer is not natural and there exists many ways to increases ones risk for the development of cancer however there are plenty of natural sources for carcinogens and radiation linked to cancer as well.

you know what i did in english class? I came to class stoned out of my mind every day, i chugged vodka in the back of class, i put dead fish in the ceiling tiles. i put a gallon of old milk and orange juice in the file cabinet before winter vacation. i brought snakes in a tied up sweater and let them loose during class. i didnt go to school to learn, i went because i had to. i didnt care, and i didn't fucking listen to that stupid bitch. and i still don't fucking care. i tore the pages out of her books and burned them, and threw away all the books in the class, two books per day.
