That was not really the point . The poi8nt being if you are convicted of stoned driving you will be treated the same if you were convicted of simple possession when trying to enter the states . The point being according to the head drug czar in the RCMP states there is no method of positively determining when and if a person is high . Nor are there any studies regarding motor skills and consumption of marijuana . The lawyers will be having a field day .

You'll need proof of something that doesn't happen to refute that point.
Well have fun on your days off.
Impaired and inebriated are TWO Different charges
Impaired is basically for anything besides alcohol that negatively effects your driving safety...guess how they prove that...?
...like they always have.
Smoking pot helps cure cancer. And alrviates some of the bad effects of chemo.
Marijuanna is not addictive. Unlike many legal prescription drugs.
Mostly unenforceable once it is legalized. Lots of them are simply setting guidelines on where and who can produce/sell so they can milk the new cash cow.
Victoria is going to have weed sold in weed only stores operated by the liquor people - whoever that is. The government ones I suppose.
They are literally going to create a chain of brick / mortar stores that are only for weed and it will only be sold there.
Its seems just one more expensive and elaborate way to sell something that is already widely sold.
Like the government method of growing all this weed indoors so as to produce a $300 an ounce product - when enough of it could be grown outdoors in a single season to supply every pothead on the planet for life.
It is just heart wrenching to watch the government do anything,

I wonder if their little weed outlet shacks will be shaped like bongs? .... harkening back to the photo developing kiosks of the 60s and 70s?
Opium is an addictive drug, cannabis is a medicinal herb - apples and oranges.
Opium is used as an analgesic especially in palliative care for terminal illnesses, so it's a medicine too, no?
Yes, I was about to add, dried poppies made into a tea will help with insomnia and mitigate chronic pain. I know a lot of old Doukhobor women who grow poppies for that reason. Doesn't make it any less addictive. And yes, a small percentage of pot smokers become mentally addicted to it but not physically.
Maybe habit forming as opposed to addictive. Although not addicted they may just not be able to face this insane world without toking up. I have known a few. Not being a doctor trained in addictions, I can't say for sure.
Baba would make poppy seed cake when we were kids and we were only allowed one slice when we asked why we were told because I said so :lol:
