Six years ago, the consumption of marijuana became legal all over Canada. This was one of the promises made by Justin Trudeau in the 2015 federal election campaign, where his Liberal Party started in a distant third place and ended up forming a majority government.
The needle did not move markedly from last year on consumption. About half of Canadians have never tried marijuana , while a third used it before it was legal and 14 per cent only acquired it after it became legal—a proportion that rises to 24 per cent among those aged 18 to 34. Discussions about decriminalization—inherently tied to the current crisis related to the use of prescription and non-prescription opioid drugs—have not made Canadians more supportive of a blanket legalization of all substances.
