I suppose, given my experience with the drug, that it would
be fairly easy to come across 'dealers'.

Granted, that would depends upon where you're going.

they haven't really changed the policy yet... but generally
speaking, the cops just don't give a shit... because they
have bigger fish to fry... avoid doing it in some very
public place (particularly if it's not like a joint that you
can finish before authorities would have time to respond to
some WASP who complained).. but other than that... it ain't
nothin' to worry about... unless it's a small town and the
cops are lame... as far as acquiring it goes... it'd
probably be pretty easy.... just chat someone up in a bar or
sumpin'

... otherwise, just find a hook up on here... there's a fair
amount of us Canadians spread about this board...

Cops bust you for beer not weed here. Well you can get in
shit for weed but more people get in shit for drinking in
public.
A guy I know got fined 80$ at the bootlegger on halloween
and they took 56$ worth of beer away from him too lol!

But yeah Weed is pretty easy to find, on the east coast
anyway. Our beer is fantastic too,

hang out at the train stations. lotsa traffic there. and
anytime i stand around for more than 15 minutes at the 7th
ave station here someone is BOUND to offer you something.
and yeah...i'm under the impression that it's not a big deal
at all. but then, i don't smoke...so. dunno. *shrugS*

well. i know that it's grown like crazy there and people
always talk a lot about "the weed in british columbia".
so...i guess it's supposed to be great. i dunno. but yeah,
like everyone has said, most people just turn the other
cheek. "bigger fish to fry" as dr. deadeight says.

god, the US government wonders where we can get more cash so
they just raise taxes - morons. If they just stopped
arresting people for pot (convicting people, it really does
no harm) and just enforce limitations like we do on alcohol,
there'd be millions of extra tax dollars for the US to use
to blow up the next country that blows a foul breath their
way.

Shows how smart Canada is not to worry about it. :D

heres the deal......

1. getting weed especially in the west is easyyyyy as all
fuckin hell, its everywhere. plus its always really good
bud.

2. canada grows and supplies some of the worlds top weed,
its literally the bomb.

3. if you get caught with less than 30 grams of pot (just
over an ounce, which goes for about 150-200 depending mainly
on quality). its a fine or ticket you get on the spot and
ofcourse your shit gets taken away, happened a few times to
me.

4. usually cops if they catch you smokin one here will just
tell you to put it out and not do that in public places and
what not... they dont really give a shit about it, cause its
really no problem.

5. marijuana culture in canada, especially the west were
most of us are is huge, bong shops every fuckin where you go
man... its in.

Hence why I'm moving to Canada. Seriously, the US can blow
me with its oppression. I don't do anyone any harm when I
light up, whereas there are drunk boyfriends and husbands
hitting their wives and children every night all across
America. What a fucking joke. But as far as B.C. goes, my
two best friends are from there, and as their older brother
has told me, it is more or less legal, you only get fined
for having a lot, and if you grow all they do is take your
plants if they find them.

what part of canada are you going to? ever do shrooms? If
you go to B.C., you'll definately be able to find some bomb
ass shrooms, but you wouldnt want to ask around for those
like you would for weed, I'd wait until you've found a
"dealer" and then start asking.

last weekend, a cop caught me and a couple of buddies
smoking in front of the club...

takes one look at us (i'm shitting my drawers) and says :

"put it out gentlemen"

that's it...

Yeah, easy enough to come by ( in the west anyway) and it's
not legal, but it's not exactly illegal either. The most
recent 'big step forward' for the marijuana movement was the
decriminalization of possession of less than (is it 30
grams?). Quite a lot anyway, and you only get a lame
ticket, rather than a criminal charge, a court date, and a
criminal record, which is nice for all concerned.

If your going to Vancouver (Canada's Amsterdam if you will),
it's not legal, but it's so commonplace that many just smoke
up on the streets, and I was offered dope (and speed and
crack BTW) on more than one occasion by perfect strangers,
so it's easy to get.

Hope that clears some things up.

yeah, that is kind of what i meant by more or less legal,
it's not legal, but in comparison to what someone from the
states is used to, it basically is legal.. :)

Canada > every other country, ever, except Atlantis and
Olympia

Yeah, you can basically light up wherever you want here,
nobody will really care. Our cops have other things on their
mind, like containing the rabid beavers.

And Canada misses The_Funkmaster! All 30+ million of us are
doing our best to cope though. Sales of Passion have shot up
300%.
