Medical marijuana has been legal in Canada since 2001 to people who suffer from AIDS, epilepsy, cancer and other terminal illnesses. In 2014 doctors were given the ability to prescribe marijuana to any patient who they deemed required it. In 2016 the Liberal party announced they would be proposing legislation in 2017 to legalize the use of recreational marijuana for adults over the age of 18.

No, decriminalize it instead. Legalization is the government putting its hand into something that’s none of its business.
@9L63WVW1mo1MO
I neither support nor disagree with the legalization of marijuana, people are entitled to do whatever they want.
@9L2P5YG1mo1MO
NO. It should be banned. People in non-violent situations should receive reform and ways to get out of it. Violent and repeat offenders should be punished severely.
