A lifetime ago I visited Amsterdam where cannabis was available at coffee shops. At the time, I couldn’t imagine the change in the attitude of the Canadian public that would be required to mimic the situation. The ability to openly purchase and carry cannabis without fear of prosecution was but a far away dream. It still is.
