Yeah, up here in Canada it’s honestly crazy how normalized it’s become and what a complete and utter non-issue it is. Always a bit of culture shock when I go travelling now.
What’s bizarre in the UK is that we don’t have legislation and seem to be fair from it, but it’s still incredibly normalised. I’m at the point where I don’t even think about the law when I buy and vape these days.
And people like myself who have a medical prescription can get 10-20g of 21% THC flower at a time delivered to my door from the pharmacy via DPD next day delivery, completely legally.
But the government are utterly shit, so I have no faith of it being legally allowed for recreational purposes any time soon here
I mean, I don’t have a prescription, but get mine in the post too.
It was pretty normalized in some places for a while before legalization too.
Except for police who target communities they dont like
It definitely was fairly normalized pre-legalization, but it’s a whole nother level now. 40+ year old parents are fairly regularly using it at social functions, the stigma around it has just incredibly dissipated.
