So Canadian values are to smoke pot? Awesome! Man we should be really proud of that.

Don't get me wrong; I like to smoke pot (I'm high right now, doing homework and posting on TA at 1pm), but knew that once the Conservatives come in the chances of pot getting decriminalized are going to be slim to none.

I didn't give any time reference, or suggest that anyone was acually going to do it. Just suggesting ONE of the posssible positive side effects if it ever did happen.

talk about short-sighted.

further wasting of police and court resources on simple pot possession is a huge step backwards...but that's Harper for you...hey, let's just become the fucking U.S. in our attitude towards pot!

good thing the CPC is planning on building more jails, eh?

Presently, marijuana decriminalization laws remain in effect in California, Colorado, Maine, Minnesota, Mississippi, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, and Ohio. Individuals found possessing small amounts of marijuana in these states receive a traffic-like citation and must pay a small fine.

How very American of us

And hey, unlike the Liberals, at least the Conservatives are doing something in this country; I may not agree with the move, but the Liberals did a whole lot worse.

So who wants to smoke some joynt just for this news..

I'm not surprised. I find it funny that he (unless misquoted, which is possible) lumps marijauna use into the category of "serious crime". Ah yes...conservatives! Why does anyone even CARE anymore if people smoke a joint? It's literally part of our culture now anyway...at least among many people. Personally, I'm not a huge pot fan but I'd even advocate full legalisation. The government could make some serious coin off it...although it would draw more criticism from the Yanks.

Even though Canadian penalties are much more lax than the US concerning drugs, I think we're still too hard on people with small amounts of whatever. Even the more "serious" drugs like coke, e, k, etc...I mean come on...if I"m walking around with half a gram or a few pills, is that REALLY worthy of jail time? Depending on what province you're in, you could be looking at that. Someone told me that if you have more than one E pill on you, you can be charged with attempted murder. Now I'm not sure if that's true, but Jesus Christ! Moronic. Some people take ten in a night for themselves!

I think you'll see attitudes start to change when our generation takes power though, in the next few decades.

Nothing Surprising, I figured this would happen.
Time to brush up on the search and seizure laws.

personally i dont really care and Im a big ass pot head too.
smoking weed is something that should be done somewhat privatly, keep that shit away from school yards and such etc... plus as long as your not a dick cops really wont give a fuck anyways they dont have time for your shit if you have a small amount, plus the liberals didnt really do shit to legalize it anyways..
weed is pretty much legal here anyways ( its like an unspoken canadian law) is long as your not being a dick or comitting a another crime while in possesion you have nothing to worry about.
Just keep smoking and be smart about it

PS we all know goverment sucks ass too...so lets keep it the way it is

Good point. Busting pot smokers is a waste of tax payer money. I thought the conservatives were planning on cutting taxes. It will never happen with the added costs of incarcerating all the pot smokers. It costs alot of money to build more jails, unless they plan on letting murderers & rapists go free.

While I lived in Windsor, it was obvious that the police couldn't deal with the cities very high number of cocaine addicts. Harper just proved that he's out of touch with the real issues on Canada's streets, and that he's more interested in sucking up to George Bush & his Right Wing Political base.

I do hope that he does make good on his plan to increase penalties on violent criminals.

This means "to talk down to," okay? Got it?

I too am floored that an English major doesn't even know what "fruition" means.

Fuck this, I'm never trusting a female's intelligence again.

I couldn't agree more with this. Many a times I have had the cops turn a blind eye to my being stoned. If you don't cause any trouble, or place anyone else in any danger, they really can't be bothered to make a fuss about it and charge you, it takes too much time and causes too much paperwork. And not only that, if it would actually make it in front of a judge, don't you think the judge would throw out the charge anyway. I mean there are much more pressing issues to be dealt with in the courts then proceeding with a charge against someone because they smoked a joint.
