Canada Becomes the Second Largest Country Permitted Marijuana as Legal

Business Habit ⋅ @businesshabit ⋅ Jun 11, 2020

It's not a daydream, it's true Canadian government already legalized marijuana in Canada. From July 2018 marijuana is publicly available. The first country was Uruguay who legalized marijuana.

The Canadian government is very smart enough to handle this drug among the customers in a proper way. You have to be over 18 if you want to buy marijuana and up to 30 grams in public.

Justin Trudeau Tweeted:

"It's been too easy for our kids to get marijuana - and for criminals to reap the profits. Today, we change that. Our plan to legalize & regulate marijuana just passed the Senate,"

Marijuana is now a billion-dollar industry and the continuous demand makes the market more growthful. Every bad side has a good side. It's now time to observe how intelligently Canada can handle this issue to cope up with the young generation.

What do you think, is it a good decision for Canadians?
