    So I hear California has legalised recreational use and that it is legal in Canada.
    Why is Australia always lagging the rest of the world?
    It took us years to legalise same-sex marriage.
    We still have poor internet.
    Saw a debate on TV this morning about the push to legalise it here.
    Pros and cons were discussed.

    I hope it becomes more widely legal.  Only makes sense to do so.

    It's all over the news here this morning (plus DUI ads).

    For me, having a medical prescription for the next year or so, the only changes should be packaging and additional taxes.  I figure other shit and details should be figured out over the coming months.

    This is such a win/win!

    Just curious, how long does it take for cannabis to leave your system so that you do not violate DUI laws?

    It's not legal in Canada yet, but will be in the middle of this year. All you really need for this to happen in Australia is a PM with the will to do it and a population who votes for him largely on that platform. Justin Trudeau promised to legalize when he ran, and it was one of the biggest election issues that helped him win.

    I believe it depends on factors similar to those of alcohol - when ingested, quantity, weight (or fat content), etc.

    Guessing it hasn't left my system since the early 80s :rofl:

    We've invested in a company developing "breathalyzers" for just this purpose.  Again, win/win!

    The usual recommendation is that you shouldn't drive within 4 hours of smoking up.

    I don’t think there’s an on the street test cops can give like a breathalyzer. I think in Washington they’re trying to develop one. Cops now assess impairment, but I don’t know how well it would hold up in court.

    Generally speaking, driving 15 MPH in a 45 MPH zone is often a clear giveaway.
