Canada to Legalize Pot This Fall |
2018-06-22 |
[Daily Finland] Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Wednesday that recreational marijuana will become legal nationwide in Canada starting Oct. 17. Visitors, too? ![]() The legislation, which stems from a campaign promise of Trudeau to keep marijuana away from underage users and reduce related crime, allows adults in the country to legally possess and use small amounts of recreational cannabis. It sets out parameters around the production, possession, safety standards, distribution, and sale of the drug. It also creates new Criminal Code offences for selling marijuana to minors. More bureaucracy! Under the bill, it will be illegal for anyone younger than 18 to buy pot, but allows for provinces and territories to set a higher minimum age. Thus fulfilling his campaign promise to keep pot away from underage users. It's illegal. What else can he do? |
