OK. Well, here goes! My very first post! Ta-DA!

(But first, maybe you should know that I was not born and bred in Canada; it's my adopted country. OK, now you know . . . go and read on.)

Really? Is this Canadian humour on a grand scale? Health Minister "Dr. Philpott" at UN today (4/20) announces legalization of marijuana. Today. 4/20. What a country!

And, uh, is that "Phil-pott" as in phil-osophy, phil-anthropy, i.e. "love"? Or is that "Phil-pott" as in "filled" with pot?

The bigger question: Is this all just fortuitous coincidence? Or does God really exist?

My guess is - "love-(towards-)pot".

Sounds peculiar. Interesting choice of date to announce it. Some videogame communities I know will appreciate that.

Good to hear Canada taking progress in terms of social policies. By legalazing marijuana, you've silenty accepted the fact that life is stressful and we all need a break; if lighting a piece of flora on fire and inhaling its smoke is what strikes a chord with you - go ahead, have fun! Maybe this will prove an example to other countries.

That's pretty awesome. I think ca is up on legalizing it commercially next year. Chong is already trying to commercialize on it. It's been pretty interesting I think after next year wel be almost half of the states have some form of legal Mj.
