Weed will be legal starting next summer.

I hope it is a good thing!

@kingu_platypus_gidora Thanks for the links.
Wow that's a big step. Could influence Europe too.
I'm especially impressed about the legalisation of self-production..

@Myrkskog The part that make me doubt is "buy from a licensed retailer". Who will be licenced?

@kingu_platypus_gidora More seriously, I think it's different for each country/state.
Here are explanations about how to obtain a license for each state legalizing medical or recreative weed:

@Myrkskog If any shop can apply for a license all is fine, but if it is only available through government owned selling point (like it is the case for alcohol), it can be disastrous as quality might drop down and the price might rise...

Myrkskog⏣ @Myrkskog

@kingu_platypus_gidora Oh. Yes, it is almost mandatory, sadly.
OR, if the black market keeps going strong, with better products, maybe they will align on it. Or be even more repressive.
I'm not aware enough of the current (or event pasts) Canadian Government so I can't really anticipate haha
