I would absolutely not support those drugs you mention nor any other dangerous addictive drug being marketed. I am suggesting that the users no longer be criminalized and that those who are willing to register with a government run dispensing clinic be provided with their drug of choice along with literature and the offer of counseling and rehabilitation. Drug users are victim, not criminals.
Drug addiction does not and should allow those under the influence to escape criminal charges. A drug addict, say alcoholic that gets behind the wheel and causes a homicide(s) , then who is the victim? It will not happen, but those in possession of illicit drugs who are addicts being made to face the prospect of lengthy iimprisonment with therapy, then street usage just might go down. Execution of convicted drug dealers might also work as a deterrent, but you seem to be moving in the opposite direction advocating for drug addicts to be supplied with their drug of choice by the government if they agree to enter a treatment program.

It takes time. Pot should be managed in Canada the same way that beer is managed in Germany.

The link with psychosis and hydroponic pot is very real, the CBD is taken out loading up on THC. That's not what nature intended. CBD is effective for people living with multiple sclerosis and the buzz from the THC is euphoric. Another form, Nabilone works very well on cancer patients undergoing chemotherapy. Other forms of health benefits have not been entirely proven. The problem with hydroponic is that it's not a buzz, it's an onslaught.

This is entirely a new field, we'll be learning as we progress. Unfortunately Charles McVety is against it, if Scheer becomes PM, he'll make pot illegal again. All that valuable RD will go out th window.

It is more expensive and it's also taxed and takes forever to get to you through the postal service.

But hey, now they can arrest you 2 hours after you've been driving in case you're still 'stoned' whether in your own home or at the bar, so the 'real' goal behind legalizing marijuana was reached.

Based on personal experiences I can see and am convinced if you do the strong stuff with like 21-28% THC and smoke a large dosage the psychosis side effects are real. I hate that it makes me feel lethargic days after taking it. I can also see the benefits such as anti inflammatory properties and makes me overall relaxed but if I don’t do it often I can see the anxiety creeping in. It would be good to have better research and understand the effects of the different components and dosage because it is helpful. This is why I agree yo pay the premium and fund some of this research.

That's when you know weed isn't for you. Once you start getting all paranoid it's time to put the weed down. Some ppl have that chemical reaction. Same thing with alcohol. Sometimes certain alcohol effects people in negative ways as well. I have a few buddies where once they start drinking the hard stuff they all of a sudden become Rambo. These are the ppl who need to put the Jack Daniels bottle down. I refuse to go out with these guys if I know they're gonna be drinking the hard booze.

I was fine with the organic verdura, when the hydroponic made it scarce it became too much, so I quit.

People need to understand that hydroponic is a method of growing not a type of pot. High thc strains are linked to psychosis which can be grown in soil with no chemicals (organic) or water/nutrient mix(hydroponic). Majority of the licensed producers in Canada grow hydroponic because it grows faster, yields more and is easier to work with($$$). You can also grow hydroponic with organic nutrients.

I will never understand why people happily give money to drug dealers. They are criminals with no motivation other than cash. I applaud the legalization of marijuana as the first step in taking money away from he illicit drug trade. I believe that all drugs should be decriminalized so that drug lords would no longer have income (ergo no influence or motivation) and all the money spent on fighting drug wars could be spent on the rehabilitation of the poor bastards who got hooked on drugs in the first place.

The only way to defeat the drug trade is by taking the money out of it. Did we not learn anything from prohibition?
You may have missed the fact that more gang activity is related to illegal cigarettes than to marijuana
Despite tobacco being legal for years

ON said they lost more than 750 million last year alone to the tobacco gangs
Then add in all the other side effects (tax cheat, gun violence, human trafficking, drugs)

The black market will diversify and survive. Already the aboriginal operations that are behind the cash cow illicit tobacco cigarettes business are ramping up cannabis production in Ontario and Quebec. These operations will continue to challenge the legal trade.

Legal marijuana has already taken a good bite out of the entire BC economy which was underwritten by the illegal pot trade for decades.

Give it enough time and you will see the same situation with legal versus illegal cannabis.
