I hope nobody minds us changing the subject somewhat but yes Trudeau definitely got elected primarily cause he promised he’d legalize it. The funniest thing was that his competition used it against him in their campaign only to discover in doing so they helped him get in.
I’ve never gambled but I doubt the same thing will happen. They conducted a world wide poll and discovered that Canada had the most users and this was long before Trudeau was elected.
I’ve never gambled. I’m not really a drinker or partier and I certainly don’t believe marijuana is a gateway to other drugs.
The way I view it is that people are going to use whether it’s legal or not but it is better if it’s a controlled substance than an uncontrolled one. It’s better to have safe places to purchase rather than people buying it off the street. It’s safer. It will be taxed. It will be controlled. It will bring in employment opportunities meaning more revenue. It’s bringing new methods of use that are safer. Not everyone wants to use marijuana to get high. There’s more important contributions than merely the THC yet that’s the first thing most people think of when they picture cannabis.
A lot of research is being done on it and it’s successfully treating people with epilepsy, autism, ptsd, glaucoma, nausea from chemotherapy and a list of other ailments.
Its not all doom & gloom Camper.
Sorry for not talking about the cake .
