The quantity and quality of British Colombian weed are both in excess. By the books, the province of BC is operating at a deficiet, but black market trade more than makes up for that 1 billion and some loss.

Fairly cheap? if you know anyone who deals you can score it for practically zilch
especially if they are drunk at the time "How much for this massive bud?" "uhhhh i dunno I don't have a scale" "guess" "10 bucks"

There was a supreme court case that struck down part of our Cannibis law (namely, possession of small quantities).
As usual in Canadian supreme court cases of this kind, they gave parliament a deadline to fix up the law. Parliament slacked off, and the deadline passed: resulting in the entire law being no longer enforceable. In effect, while the law against possessing small quantities of weed is currently on the books, and you can be charged with it, you have the backing of the supreme court when it goes to trial. Sort of a wierd state. Police in some areas aren't bothering to arrest under this non-crime crime. The legalization of pot for medical use has occured, and is also causing some strange precidents. At one point, the government allowed doctors to perscribe pot, but nobody was legally allowed to grow it, and judges bonked the government on the head for it. The use of weed isn't extremely common, but it isn't extremely rare. I know pot heads, ex pot-heads, and people who have never touched the stuff. I also know people who drink alot of beer, people who used to drink alot of beer, and people who have never touched the stuff. (admittedly, there are far fewer never-drinkers than never-weeders). In some circles, smoking cigarettes is considered alot more anti-social than smoking pot. Those who sell pot are still committing a crime in Canada.

And if that's not illegal, what if I give it away and get a few sizable donations to my local charity, entitled "The co-op of relaxation"?

I love the fact that the Canadian government grows "medicinal pot" in an abandoned mine in Flin Flon, Manitoba...
Cracks me up, everytime.

If were up to just Canada I'm sure it would be totally legal by now but there is too much pressure from the US not to.
As the borders are still closed to most of our beef and threats of a tightening border should Canada legalize pot, our government doesn't have a lot of choice but try to avoid the issue. It's pretty screwed up that the US is making such a big deal about our pot when all their cocaine and what not causes far worse issues. All in all the issues the marajuana trade causes is pretty small in comparison to the far greater problems other drugs cause, it's simply a waste of resources busting people for pot. And contrary to what everyone belives pot is not a gateway drug leading to much worse habits. That is a statement used by weak individuals as an excuse to why they ruined their life, and by individuals who know nothing about it. IMO!! |
