    … And it’s still illegal to carry on federal land (including boarders). This is a win but it’s a fucking minor one.

    Amazingly enough after Canada legalized weed our country didn’t instantly fall into anarchy.

      US stayes that legalized weed had all of the predicted positive outcomes like reduced crime related to weed, increased taxes because it is taxed, etc.

      You know, the obvious outcomes for anyone who doesn’t buy into reefer madness.

      I don’t think you’ve visited enough Canadian online communities.

      If you ask the internet, specifically Reddit, Galen Loblaw will arrest you for buying 30% off stewing beef at the self scan, and while you’re shopping your car will have been stolen and TFWs will have taken your job.

        Galen Weston is definitely a huge asshole, but I’d blame that one more on capitalism and greed. The weed helps us endure the price fixing bullshittery.
