Maybe the Vancouver pot shops aren't fully legal, but the police and judges have a pact to not do anything about them. No one will get arrested for possession in Vancouver. You can literally sit outside a police station and smoke a joint.
And ya, you need a prescription from a doctor, but hey, there's a doctor upstairs, follow me...
- andrewstuart 11y agoIt's a pity it's corrupting doctors. Shouldn't be necessary.
- redthrowaway 11y agoMost of them use naturopaths, so there's very little to corrupt.
- hackerboos 11y agoAnyone know if this is the case in Toronto? I've seen one dispensary in Kensington Market but I've never attempted to get a prescription.
- x1798DE 11y agoThis kind of "de facto legal" thing really bothers me, because that really just says you are concentrating more arbitrary power in the hands of the justice system. For me, it's not legal until you can do it while calling a cop an asshole.
- hackerboos 11y agoPretty sure you can be arrested in Canada for calling a cop an asshole.
- dlitz 11y agoYup. You're relying on selective enforcement. So, as long as you're white and middle-class, you're fine. Others' mileage may vary.
