    Weed stays in your system anywhere from a few days to a few months depending on how much you smoke, so how do you avoid getting a DUI? Like supposed your pulled over and your eyes are red but your not actually high at the time youd still have it in your system and would fail a drug test so how exactly does that work? It seems pretty ridiculous.

    Smoke weed and listen to rap, better combination than the bible



  4. leo coolio on June 13, 2021 at 7:25 pm

    Hey Guys,
    I am a young man from the UK and I am looking to go into the cannabis industry full-time in Canada one day, hopefully soon. Can anyone please give me advice on how I could make this a reality, I am open to any opinion and your words can really help me. Thank you.

    In my community in Ont it’s still legalized :/ and now about the Covid-19 nobody is allowed to fly out or fly back home

    Canadians can be rough with their comments for sure. A black cop died of a fentanyl overdose here and someone said good riddance to a cop, because the cop was black or good riddance to a cop?



  10. Jiyon Min on June 13, 2021 at 7:31 pm

    One time I asked a personal question to someone high on weed and he got defensive, don’t ask personal question to someone high on weed



  11. Jiyon Min on June 13, 2021 at 7:31 pm

    For real, cops can smoke weed in Canada



  12. Jiyon Min on June 13, 2021 at 7:36 pm

    I had experience where guy was high on weed at the park and I had german flag with me. The guy was giggling at me or my German flag? this got me mad, if he was giggling at german flag, no good to him, for superpowerful Germans in germany, don’t mess with Germans for real

    While each Moon Rock marijuana will be a little bit different based on the strain you use, here is one thing you can count on: On average each moonrock nug will contain around 50% THC—a staggering level that should leave even the most experienced smokers very pleased. @t

    God bless canada



  15. sub-zero on June 13, 2021 at 7:42 pm

    maaan I soooo want it to be legalized in my country :((((



  16. dv planetwaves on June 13, 2021 at 7:43 pm

    We need your help Meanwhile, all dispensaries in Canada have been ordered by the government to close, and remain shut, until they receive all levels of permission (building owner, municipal, provincial, federal, etc). This will take years in most cases. Any dispensary that sells without all licenses and inspections will never be welcomed into the legal system, threatened Bill Blair. He’s the person Trudeau put in charge of legalization So to PROTECT yourself from the government that gave the OK to access a CLASS A NARCOTIC, for recreational uses & then ARREST you Please Join the MARIJUANA PARTY OF CANADA BY Bishop Coulbeck. thank you.

  28. Jiyon Min on June 13, 2021 at 7:54 pm

    Justin Trudeau has three young children don’t know why he made weed legal



  29. Fallen Angel on June 13, 2021 at 7:57 pm

    I have no objection about someone personal choice.
    But at public place, it’s problem for non smoke/serious allergy or asthma people/patients/kids.



  30. SilentBoy on June 13, 2021 at 8:00 pm

    so can i go from Edmonton to high level with pot lol



  31. djSpinege on June 13, 2021 at 8:00 pm

  33. Jiyon Min on June 13, 2021 at 8:02 pm

  34. Brandon Bisaccia on June 13, 2021 at 8:02 pm

    Government run stores rather have it illegal



  35. Indrajith bhoga on June 13, 2021 at 8:05 pm

    So many ppl complaining about restrictions. You’d be in prison for years for keeping just a few grams for personal use in my country. Good job Canada, leading by example.
