i'm in favour of pot in corner stores. pick up some bud, some rollies, some cheezies, some pizza pops...

it would ultimately be a carbon emissions reduction plan, because it would minimize trips to the store.

but, i don't really have a problem with selling alcohol at the corner store, either.

i would suggest a devious plan to use care bear themed subliminal messaging between television frames. we'll all be off to the yoga studios, screaming about how wonderfully meaningful life is in no time!

i would also suggest that we just burn all the existentialist literature. we don't need our new positive-thinking, smiley-faced superhappyfun citizens to be corrupted with any of that nonsense.

it'll no doubt be a province thing. i'd expect quebec to allow it to be sold in depanneurs. ontario will likely be more strict. but that won't necessarily mean bankers hours for access.

for example, pot bars will no doubt pop up where people can buy something at the bar (marijuana has a wide array of fine culinary options, from refreshing drinks to delicious desserts). they'll id. they'll tell kids to get lost. you might not be able to take the j outside with you, but there will no doubt be late night options. until 2:00 am, anyways.

of course, if you walk into pretty much any under-35 bar, the reality is that everybody is stoned, anyways. it won't be much of a difference.
