Default Re: If Canada disappeared, would anyone notice?

Yes yes. You know, I got busted smoking down a couple of weeks ago and nothing came of it - didn't even get my pipe confiscated. Right now the laws are so vague that the cops might bust you or they might not, but they're getting more and more lenient. Decriminalization of up to 15 grams, if not outright legalization, is just around the corner. If you ask Deaf, I'm sure he'll tell you that Canadians in general have a much more relaxed attitude toward weed than Americans do in general. Thank God.

I think 11 of 13 Canadian provinces/territories now recognize gay marriages, and soon it will be the whole country. My province just legalized the procedure a few weeks ago, round about the same time one-fifth of the USA decided that private relationships are public business. I tell you, nobody in Canada would ever take seriously the notion of introducing to the Charter of Rights or Constitution an amendment banning gay marriage. Well, maybe some of the Albertans.

Alaska sounds like a nice place to visit.
