Since the possession of marijuana was criminalized in Canada in 1923, Canadians now are starting to become more educated regarding it's affects and the role it plays in Canada's street crime.
I don't think the Canadian government should be just as strict and resentful regarding the availability of marijuana as the United States. Unlike George Bush, none of our Prime Ministers have so formally declared a 'War on Drugs.' Although I believe that it is still important that we continue to defend our nation's security by intercepting drug cartels attempting to breach our borders, I don't think our government should spend so much of its police forces' resources confiscating marijuana as America's government does.
I think our government should be more committed to the education of marijuana to the public than the physical intervention of the public being able to obtain it.
