Marijuana problem カナダ留学日記　5/14（Tue）バンクーバー生活残り182日

Canadian government decided to legitimate marijuana last year.

We discussed this topic in today's class.

I didn't agree this Canadian government decision before I took this class.

However, in the class, I learned some persuasive reasons to legitimate marijuana in Canada.

Unlike Japan, marijuana is so common in Canada.

Approximately 20％ people have used marijuana.

Our teacher said marijuana is the most cheap way to get little high compared with alcohol and tabacco.

On the top of this, legitimating marijuana makes more tax income.

Before legislation, if people want to buy marijuana, they should have bought marijuana from illegal routes like mafia.

After legislation, people can buy marijuana from authorized shop by government.

It means Canadian government can get money from marijuana.

Of course, their income utilize public society like building schools and hospitals.

With justice, using marijuana is not good thing but we need to consider this problem from various viewpoints.

I could learn it from today's class.

Today is like this.
Thank you for reading.
