With the recent decriminalization of marijuana in Canada, I've found the reactions of Canadians super interesting.

I grew up during the War on Drugs. I knew folks who smoked, and how the official line was bullshit. As I got older, I learned about the prohibition's origin in racism, its role in oppression, and its safety, especially compared to legal drugs. Legalization undoes a world of evil.

Most folks I speak to still view it as an icky illegal drug, just like any other.
