decrim isn't the way to go though. decrim would make it legal to smoke and carry small amounts of marijuana, but it wouldn't do anything for selling or growing it. it would actually just drive the growers and sellers deeper into the black market. what we need is FULL LEGALIZATION (ideally with no taxes). DECRIMINALIZATION is NOT GOOD!!!!
just a note:
I DO NOT SUPPORT DECRIMALIZATION> it is not the answer it is a compromise which keeps all the harmful effects on our communities. and has the only benefit of reliving some paranoia of the smokers
That was a good short read. I think that the laws are a complete joke and many Canadians know it. I am a computer science student and a professional computer programmer. I'm also a criminal because of the plants I have growing in my closet.
WTF?

Thanks again this report will help all of us in our arguments. Seeing what our government bodies have said is very uplifting.
Yea I voted for the NDP last election and I'll vote for them next time most likely. Those guys will lighten the laws concerning marijuana.
Full legalization won't happen right away.. It's to much at one time for the government to handle. They wouldn't even know how to begin to approach "legalization" This is where decriminalization comes into play.. It's a stepping stone towards full legalization of Cannabis.
The bigger issue right now is medicinal patients , people that choose to use Cannabis over pharmaceuticals. These people that choose to treat thier illnesses with Cannabis are being considered criminals and getting criminal records for things like simple posession of Cannabis. People with MS, Glaucoma, HIV, Hep-C or Cancer are being fined, evicted, and even jailed for something as simple as medication.
So decriminalization is an essential step to actual legalization..
Canada, Stop making our sick citizens into criminals.
Bob.
