Uh, what legal activity would that be? Simple posession is still illegal in Canada (if not much enforced). Production and distribution is illegal. Selling seeds is still illegal - the RCMP just made a big bust the other day of a Canadian outfit selling seeds. And now that we have a Conservative gov't I wouldn't expect to see any further loosening of the laws, in fact I expect we may see stronger penalties for some of these crimes. That's one thing I don't agree with the CPC (Conservative party of Canada) on, but I believe it's a stand that is generally popular with CPC supporters.
I stand correct on the legality. But the Gov't sill collects taxes on sales.
I've been in Canada 4 times and on two of those visits, I was offered a joint by friendly young Canadians. They are very cordial with their cannabis - very friendly neighbors.
