you can drink on a patio though, in a lot of pubs and bars you can also smoke on those patios. btw, the fucking drinking laws here are so archaic compared to virtually all of europe, people cant have a beer on the beach ffs.. |

https://www.ctvnews.ca/politics/sena...vote-1.3980234 https://news.vice.com/en_ca/article/...-legalize-weed What you need to know: Many of the decisions around how legalized marijuana is sold and used will be up to the provinces and territories. Here is what you need to know about what will be allowed: The federally mandated public possession limit of 30 grams of dried cannabis has been maintained across the country, with most jurisdictions opting to keep their legal marijuana-smoking ages in line with those for drinking alcohol. Bill C-45 allows individuals to grow up to four marijuana plants per residence, though some provinces, like Manitoba and Quebec, plan to ban home cultivation. Provincial and territorial plans vary widely on whether you’ll be able to smoke in public. Provinces and territories also differ on whether pot shops will be publicly or privately owned. For those opting for publicly owned stores, these will be operated by provincial Crown corporations that sell liquor. In some cases, provinces have even created subsidiaries of these companies with names. Unless otherwise noted, these will be standalone stores wholly separate from those that sell alcohol. While dried cannabis and cannabis oil -- both of which will be sold in 2018 -- can be used to make edible products at home, the federal government has said that packaged edible products won’t be commercially available. Canada’s Senate passed the federal government's legal weed bill on Tuesday night, the last legislative hurdle in the country's years-long process to legalize recreational cannabis. The new law — which still requires Royal Assent — will allow adults to buy and consume small amounts of cannabis, however edibles won’t be legalized until sometime after next year. Since the government is giving the 13 provinces and territories a grace period to get their retail systems in order, it will still be another few months until legal sales actually start. It’s a massive undertaking that’s never been attempted in any country. British Columbia Known around the world for being intensely pro-cannabis, the province in B.C. will implement a hybrid weed sales model where private retailers and government-run BC Cannabis Stores can sell the products to adults over 19. There are no caps on the number of store licenses, but it’s up to each municipality to approve the store locations. However, weed sales won’t be allowed to happen in places where alcohol or tobacco is sold. Some public consumption will be allowed as long as it’s not near parks or in vehicles. As home to one of the world’s biggest illegal cannabis markets, the government is encouraging illegal businesses to join the legal fold. |
once legalization happens i wonder if there will be any studies on the long term effects of cannabis vs Tobacco smoke. there's like 60 known carcinogenic chemicals in Tobacco,and cannabis has some medical values with CBD that calms inflammation,eases stress,Stops Epileptic Seizures. Also cancer patients treated with chemo and its awful side effects benefit a lot from Cannabis. but again,smoke isn't natural in the lungs but we got Vaporizers without burning anything to a toast! |
I don't even understand the "possession limit". There's no possession limit on alcohol, you can literally buy enough to kill yourself. Under 30grams, "legal", 30.1 grams 5 years in fucking prison? Talk about no in between. Oh well, baby steps I guess. In a bunch of years time they'll realise that the sky isn't falling because of legal weed, realise that people in jail for 30.1 grams is stupid and then change the laws again. |
Curious if they have gotten the price down to a point that would eliminate the black market. I doubt the $180 per ounce I currently pay for high grade(tuna, blue cheese, pine tar, comatose, kosher, etc) would be similar to a retail store. Also curious on how the government will regulate the growers and what control they will have over the product they grow and what price they can sell at. This is the major issue for me: "This legislation proposes changes to the impaired driving laws to give police new powers to conduct roadside intoxication tests, including oral fluid drug tests, and would make it illegal to drive within two hours of being over the legal limit." What is the legal limit? How is it measured? Oral testing is complete BS and does not in any way paint an accurate picture of impairment. Will there be road side blood tests? That sounds dirty. So is it look and feel with police using their discretion based on your behavior? What is it exactly they will be looking for? Munchies? Slow speech? We are still at a time where the breathalyzer is known to give false positives and it has been around for decades and still universally accepted as an enforceable measurement. I don't believe the technology is there yet where a true intoxication limit can be accurately measured. As a reference, I picked up yesterday and we hung out for about 3 hours. We smoked at least 6 joints in that time frame. I drove home like it was nothing with no signs of any impairment at all. Since I don't show signs of impairment I would be curious how a cop would view me if he smelled it on my clothes similar to smelling alcohol on a persons breath, which would lead to probable cause for a road side test. |

BRITISH COLUMBIA Age: 19+ Where to buy: Both government and privately-run storefronts and online sales. Grow your own?: Up to four plants, out of public sight. Where to smoke?: Only where tobacco may be smoked. Other notes: Landlords can restrict cultivation and smoking on their properties. i don't get how that works.....once your plant is done and if its more than 30 grams how fucked are you? :seriously: |
Price is irrelevant to me, I haven’t bought from a “dealer” in years. I never buy more than an eighth from a dispencery as I can walk there in 5 minutes and also it won’t go dry or get old before I buy more. Even if an ounce is 2/40/50 more id prefer to walk in and buy at my own accord than rely on a dealer. |

It's a "public" possession limit, so you could stock up pounds of it in your house, but only transport 30 grams at a time. It's still dumb though. |

Let the floodgates open. Choose your weed stock and let it run boys and girls. |
I wonder how many people are gonna cause problems between now and then because "it's almost legal!" |
It feels like it is better now and once they begin implementing their rules and laws it'll make life harder. Road side check enforcement and the officers awareness of the new law making them look closer and deeper at drivers, commercial growers protocol, home grow laws, possession rules, etc. Some are calling it prohibition 2.0 Just because the law changes doesn't mean that society will accept it. There are still a shit ton of humans that demonize it so it'll take a generation to get those baby boomers out of office before the Gen X's have real power and a realistic view of it. |
fuck'em,i bet you after its all said and done in one year of sales it will top at least 2 billion dollars. |
Let's say you've got 4 plants growing in your house and its time to collect your hard earned weed. How much weed can those 4 plants produce and how long would it last for an average person who only smokes once or twice a day? If you were to sell it all instead how much are you looking at making? I don't plan on growing any or selling anything but I'm really curious as to how much this can benefit someone. |
the yield off 4 plants that grew even half-assed could get between an ounce to 3-4 Unless you're smoking a tonne, that shit is gonna be dry or go bad before you probably get through much of it. its no different than growing tomatoes or somthing though, whenever i buy a tomato plant i probably end up tossing half the yield cause its just too much to eat lol |
Someone should change the title of this thread, it's not really accurate anymore :P |

It follows up on trudeau's promise to legalize. 1st G7 country to do it..also first country to get their heads outta their bumholes |
In going to be very interested how it turns out After recently going to Amsterdam, the “weed scene” there is a joke really and at best a tourist novelty. There are seemingly zero locals who actually sit and smoke before work or somthing with a coffee etc. it seemed like it was virtually 100% tourists. I’d say Portland or Washington is obviously a better example but I feel like it’s going to be very different even from them |
