I've had friends who got caught with weed and the cops just took it away. None of the people I know have ever had their cars taken away. The jail thing is always a possibility and I doubt that Canada has a policy of never incarcerating those dealing or using drugs.
personally I wish it was like Amsterdam since I live about 15 minutes from the border.

Depends on where you are in Canada. London has a marijuana cafe where you can smoke openly. So does Toronto, and a handful of other cities. There are many such cafes in BC, and some even sell weed if you ask discreetly.

I don't have to worry about people shooting at me while I'm pouring my slurpee at 7 eleven, and I thank the powers that be that I wasn't part of the country that would elect a warmonger piece of shit like that you got running the place. Don't you people feel at least a little bit of sympathy or guilt for all the innocents that are being killed in the name of America, because of the president that you elected. There ain't no high horse here, just the basic freedoms that everybody should be able to enjoy. The only thing I have to worry about is when your all mighty president decides that hes gonna destroy Canada because we got some of the natural resources that he wants. Of course we can be assholes to, the reason he was yelling at his waitress is because she was probably an idiot that brought him shitty food, I've been down to your great country and the food and water quality sucks.
Have a good one eh
I've lived in the states my entire life, and never had that happen to me. That could just be b/c I use intelligence by not blatantly using drugs in public or driving around while intoxicated or carrying.
I love our food. And the water quality varies wherever you are.

Yes they do... I've only actually gone through them on two occasions, they're usually just around holidays and stuff, but they have them now and then.

heh, dude you didnt even read the webpage you posted. Ill post some quotes here to save you the trouble of reading your own link. :p
Quote:
ST. JOHN'S, Nfld. -- Marc Emery added another arrest for smoking marijuana to his growing list when he lit up outside a police headquarters in Newfoundland on Saturday.
Quote:
Pot activist Marc Emery, who was arrested Wednesday for puffing at a pro-legalization rally in front of Winnipeg police headquarters Wednesday, may have to refrain from lighting up at all summer, thanks to bail conditions imposed yesterday.
Quote:
Cannabis Culture publisher Marc Emery was arrested on July 9, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, at about 4:20pm, during the first stop of what was planned to be a 16 city cross-country freedom tour.
Quote:
On July 21, Cannabis Culture publisher Marc Emery was arrested for the third time during his Summer of Legalization cross-country tour. Emery was detained by police shortly after lighting up a bong in front of the Moncton police headquarters at 4:20pm.
Quote:
A self-proclaimed crusader for legalizing marijuana had to cut short his summer tour plans yesterday after he was arrested for smoking pot on the Main Street steps of the Codiac Regional RCMP Moncton detachment.
Quote:
Vancouver-based pot crusader Marc Emery was arrested yesterday after smoking marijuana outside city police headquarters as part of a national tour to push for legalizing the drug.
But stopping off at other Canadian police stations later to smoke could be tough for Emery, if Edmonton city cops get certain conditions placed on him.
"You can't go and flaunt your illegal activity in front of a police station without being dealt with," Insp. Dick Shantz said at city police headquarters downtown.
Quote:
Cannabis Culture publisher Marc Emery's "Summer of Legalization" tour is turning into a "Summer of Busts," as Emery was imprisoned for the second time on Saturday, July 12, in Regina, Saskatchewan, for possession of marijuana.
Need I go on?

i *think* what some people are trying to say is where in teh states would someone caught that many times be let back out to do it next year?
i dunno, im jsut playing devils advocate.
its all on wher ein canada you are...but its teh same for where in teh sates you are i would imagine...what it all comes down to is teh individual cop. as much as we may liek to think tehres this big massive blod swallowing up us pot smokers....its really sjut a bunch of peopel that are for or against it acting singly. in my opinion. its clear what the law is...its up to a handfull of people to decide to uphold it or not.

Oh lol.
He got busted at a COUPLE of the stops he made, yes, and was released both times without charges.
I can tell you for a fact that he was not arrested on each stop, because I was there. I smoked his joint (guy has some KILLER buds, by the way!) and smoked from his friend's bong. I lit up my own joints and passed them around the crowd, too. Not a single person was arrested.

I'm fully aware he was arrested a few times, I never said anything to the contrary. Apparently you have trouble reading my posts.
He was the only one arrested at SOME of the events, the dozens of others who stood around smoking weren't.
Here's my original statement:
"Worked out okay for quite a few of us, actually."
Where did I say he wasn't arrested?
