RE: LEGALIZE IT!
I do have to warn Canadians that "allowing" weed, like happened in the Netherlands, to be sold in coffeeshops, as well as the right to have some weedplants at your house, has also caused some problems. We are considered to be one of the biggest suppliers of XTC in Europe (and maybe even the world); there are a lot of examples in which people died of XTC because it contained rat poison, or other chemicals. We are the "Colombia" of Europe. Because of this, and other things, especially Germany and France have criticised our stance on drugs; the smuggling of drugs from the Netherlands has caused problems in these countries.
I'm not against the legalisation of weed. However, you should take in consideration that mistakes are easily made, and abuse is just around the corner.
