Canada will be the first G7 country to legalize marijuana...

Well, it's finally happened. Canada legalizes cannabis! It will come into power around 2018 and the prices will be set as well as age restrictions at the minimum of 18 years old.

The Canadian government has stated that they will use the tax revenue to help pay for:

• Education
• Research
• Administration
• Enforcement

Liberal parties have stated:

“The Liberal solution is clear: If we pass smart laws that tax and strictly regulate marijuana, we can better protest our kids, while preventing millions of dollars from going into the pockets of criminal organizations and street gangs"

And...

“Our current approach is failing our kids,” he said back in 2014. “It’s not protecting them from pot, it’s allowing them to access marijuana easier than they access alcohol or cigarettes. Millions of dollars of the trade are being funneled into criminal organizations and street gangs."

So, there you have it. Canada just seems to be getting more and more polarized than it's neighbor country each month! What do you think of it?

“Our current approach is failing our kids,” he said back in 2014. “It’s not protecting them from pot, it’s allowing them to access marijuana easier than they access alcohol or cigarettes. Millions of dollars of the trade are being funnelled into criminal organizations and street gangs."

Trudeau’s vision is also outlined on the Liberal Party website: “The Liberal solution is clear: If we pass smart laws that tax and strictly regulate marijuana, we can better protest our kids, while preventing millions of dollars from going into the pockets of criminal organizations and street gangs.”
