It's not just BC that is decriminalizing dank its all of Canada. From now on in Canada if you are caught carrying under 30 grams you will only get a fine. I'm not sure if it's in full effect yet tho but i know they threw a case out of court in ottawa, and many other cases of people who had under 30 grams.

Canada is a good notion but look at the difference in population.

Canada 30,287,000 Vs. United States 267,839,000 That is almost nine times the population. California has more people then Canada. It is a lot easier to keep a smaller population apeased. I am not saying Canada is a bad country, it just doesnt have the "problems" America has because of its large population.

Phil- I agree with you I don't think there is another country in which has a better system of distribution of wealth, responsibilites and valued resources such as the United States of America. I feel some on this board take for granted what America has that other countries don't. I am not saying America is perfect, still I wouldn't live in another country. Well maybe Canada. But thats only if America goes to shit.....

America has a failing social system, corruption is rife, racial tensions are clearly evident, no democracy what so ever, highest murder rate in the world, over 1 million are imprisoned, employs the death penalty against the mentally ill and retarded, and I could go on and on.

are you part of the problem or are you part of the solution?

WHAT WOULD YOU DO DIFFERENTLY?

What strides in your life are you taking to make America a better place? What liberties are you willing to give up for the equality of all Americans?

What country would you live in besides America?

ROFL.... I can name one easily, SWEDEN! Sweden has the best distribution of wealth in the WORLD, and thats not an opinion thats statistically true. Their are NO poor, and their are NO rediculously rich.

As far as "anti-american" goes, in order to lable a person "anti-american" you would have to have an extensive knowlege of what "american" means, so phil... tell me what is american, and no it CANNOT be "your opinion"... give me a dictionairy universal definition of American.

if so why doesnt Sweeden have to secure it's boarders to imigrants crossing into its country? Maybe I am wrong and cant offer concise numbers when it comes to the distribution of wealth.
The opurtunity per capita is much greater then what Sweeden has to offer. Am I wrong?

in no other country in the world can a person go there dirt poor and in a span of that persons lifetime be a multi-millionaire with as high a percentage as her in the USA.

why are people constantly doing anything (even risk their lives) to come to america??? obviously not because poor people cant make it. or else all those poor people wouldnt be coming here
