There are a lot of recreational drugs which work adversely on your cardiovascular system - cocaine/amphetamine/ecstasy will cause sympathetic nervous stystem activation (increase heart rate and increase BP, impaired electrical conduction in myocytes, reduced contractility). Whereas canabis has a biphasic effect on the autonomic nervous system, which can causing tachycardia and increased in cardiac output.
Overall, not good for your heart, but I'm guessing you already know that.
