Last year, a pilot program was launched in a Canadian province allowing adults to carry up to 2.5 grams of hard drugs for personal use. Soaring drug use in public spaces has raised concerns over public safety.
The Canadian province of British Columbia is reversing its policy of allowing the open use of hard drugs in public.
Premier David Eby said Friday that police will soon have the power again to enforce drug use laws in all public places, including hospitals, restaurants, parks, and beaches.
It brings to an end a much-criticized pilot program that allowed the personal use of some illegal drugs, including cocaine, methamphetamine, MDMA, heroin, morphine, and fentanyl.
The program launched in January last year, to remove the stigma associated with drug use that keeps people from seeking help, was supposed to run for three years.
I’m sorry, by ‘grow and produce,’ I didn’t realize you meant some sort of mass-production for sale.
You can, apparently, legally grow 15kg of tobacco per adult per year in Canada based on this law:

This Redditor has done the math and says that works out to 40 cigarettes a day.

I am guessing that the additives in the cigarettes that are mass produced are, in part, necessary as preservatives because they need to have a decent shelf life.
Oh yeah you absolutely can legally grow your own… but I feel like natives got shafted and they should be able to grow in Mass produce them for sale… preservatives for decent shelf life aren’t necessary you don’t need cigarettes that last 40 years haha people just want it that way I guess… but I’d rather buy cigarettes with nothing but tobacco in them and throw out a couple of moldy ones at the end then smoke fromaldehyde and whatever the fuck else are in the mass produced.
Anyway I’m being downvoted into Oblivion for existing on this thread I guess so I’m going to peace out
You have 1-3 downvotes on some comments and you think this is being mass downvoted into oblivion?
I’m just sensitive today it’s a bad day don’t mind me
A gramme is always better than a damn.
40 years? I don’t know how long cigarettes without preservatives can last without going stale, but when I used to smoke, I’m sure the cigarettes I smoked had preservatives in them and they still got stale after a few months. And I doubt they’re selling so quickly they can afford to not put in preservatives and risk having to throw out a bunch of product.
