    It was legalized federally in Canada in 2018, so it’ll probably be around 2028 when it’s legalized federally in the US, just like it took a decade for the US to legalize gay marriage after Canada did it.

      Different culture. Canada is far more liberal than the United States.

      But with the ongoing migration crisis and continuing stupidity of Trudeau administration, I’m afraid that the momentum gained for the Canadian right to eventually become mainstream.

        Don’t worry, when we eventually get basic human needs down such as universal healthcare and other social welfare, worker’s rights, and liveable non-car dependent infrastructure, I’m sure everyone will start moving to the US instead of Canada and you’ll be saved. I give it… a few decades, when the climate catastrophe starts becoming apparent.

      Lets see how long we’ll get to keep it with a MAGA SCOTUS majority. Kim Davis already started the process to get it up to them and Thomas will definitely be a no.
