They pretty much did over a decade ago. My own brother was caught[0] by the police with a handful of joints- they ripped them up and threw the remains in a ditch. They don't care, unless you're running a very public chain of retail shops that sell weed to anyone.

- sdm 10y agoLike almost everything about Canada, this is very much a regional thing. Cities and provinces have a lot of leeway to deprioritize things like marijuana prohibition. Just because you won't get busted for simple possession in Vancouver or Toronto, doesn't mean you won't get busted in Regina or Winnipeg. There have been over 22k arrests for simple possession since Trudeau assumed office with the promise of legalization.
