mushrooms in vansterdam?

hey guys,
i have been reading a bit out the marijuana situation in vancouver, BC (affectionatly known as vansterdam) and it seems pretty chill. i guess there aren't any shops currently selling bud, but it seems easy to get, and there are smoke-friendly cafes. a lot of people say you can walk down the street smoking and no one cares.
so what is the mushrooms scene like in vansterdam? is it possible to get them easily on the street, like it is to get pot?
once coffee shops open up, how long do you think it will be till we see the first smartshop? there are already stores there that sell auyahuasca, pervuian torch, iboga, salvia, HBWR and morning glory seeds. i'd imagine that they would love to start selling mushrooms ASAP. any guesses on when?
its an exciting time in canada. i am thinking about taking a tour out to BC this coming summer to check it out for myself. if it's even half of what it's cracked up to be, it should be a good time.

They're illegal, so there aren't going to be any opening up.

yeah
but so is pot, technically
Mushrooms and weed arn't too similar...
legalizing mushrooms will come after the legilization of weed, or it may just not come at all.

I've been up to Vancouver a couple of times and a little bird told me that at least one main store there is already selling mushrooms =). It just takes a little asking around

sounds promising shattrdharleguin.
see, all it takes is for everyone to just say "fuck this. we're gonna grow, sell, and use." and it just works. i really gotta get myself into that scene...
imagine how amazing it would be to look back in 20 years, knowing that you played a big part in helping mushrooms to be legalized..

Man... if you want a really messed up trip, go to Vancouver and take a bunch of mushrooms, then go to the Club Amsterdam and smoke a bunch of weed, the step out the door, turn left down Hastings St, and walk a few blocks.
In an instant you will realize that every single other person on the street is obviously a junky or crackhead, and that you're surrounded by empty store fronts and various types of drop in clinics, homeless shelters and some extremely shitty apartments.
It's a damn frightening area, so turn around and walk the exact opposite way and you'll get to Stanley Park, which is way bigger than Central Park, and it separates the Vancouver core from North and West Vancouvers. There you can chase the birds, relax on the beach, and explore forest. Oh, and there might be a small free zoo in there... but I'm not sure if they got rid of that.

I highly doubt you can smoke weed walking down the street, but if it is in a blunt or a joint.. you could get away with it. but I highly doubt they have shops like in amsterdam, unless it underground, I am sure there are undergound places all over in that area. At the same time there are underground places all over the place, no matter where you live.

Dude, of course you can smoke weed walking down the street. I've smoked weed walking down the street in downtown Toronto on several occasions (including a crowd of several thousand for a big march).
You can also go to the Amsterdam Cafe, as well as some other similar cafes, and openly smoke pot. They have a small, well ventilated smoking room, as well as some outdoor tables where you could smoke pot. I think this is actually related to smoking in restaurant bylaws.
Pot smoking is really common there now. It's crazy.
