Escape to Canada Part 2 of 9

[8698gil]

Too bad we still have christians here in canada. They'r the only ones with a problem with smoking weed. Everybody here does it. I've been smoking for 30 years.

[ff6880]

@8698gil im christians and i smoke so who cares

[8698gil]

@ff6880 are you canadian?

[8698gil]

I was born here in Canada.  Best country in the world. Most of the americans I met are narrow-minded and ignorant. I mean, 60% of texans think that dinosaurs and humans lived at the same time!!! Do they actually take the flintstones as a factual documentary? I am continually amazed at the stupidity I come across.

[Mehtaphorical]

It's not really accurate to equate Quebec with French Canada. French Canada extends beyond the borders of Quebec and an English Canadian culture exists in Quebec.

[neil73]

Dear Canada, I have visited your beautiful shores 3 times in the last 11 years. I'm now a mature student doing an English language and Lit degree. Please let me live and work in your amazing country, because my country hates its citizens. I've had enough of the U.K: I HAVE to live in Canada!

[nowwhereman1]

@neil73 ....come on up..We're waiting for you..Love from Canada

[ammarios]

MAN, I miss Chretien....this brings tears to my eyes... what with Pierre Trudeau, Tommy Douglas ,Chretien (&now, Layton) we really WERE just skipping along the correct path (we are and have always been a left-of-centre-majority-nation­­) ... I miss the Chretien days, when we were headed in a direction of being the country in the world that follows left-wing economics AND civil-libertarianism, as in yes to government in the economy, but no to government in civil issues/civil liberties..Fuck Harper

[leptismagna10]

Canada, the true land of the free if there ever was one.

however, i feel like this is balanced out by the frikkin cold.

[neil73]

@leptismagna10 Southern Ontario is boiling hot in the summer

[Ste0wnz]

Prohibitionists bringing the cannabis legalisation hero down. We must fight back! get stronger ! Regroup! unite! invade! yeah! man!

[MaximilianHorizon]

[Rinconmaniac]

Marc, my thoughts and prays are with you while in the U.S. doing time. You haven't been forgotten!

[daydaviddunn]

[TSeanX]

@daydaviddunn Marc is in jail in the US for selling seeds to americans via mail. He was extradited last spring and was sentenced to 5 years a few weeks ago.

[356pla]

[phatray]

[Popartastic]

[thames5]

[mgore90]

'The baron of boring' lol

[shastamcnasta666]

Fuck Stephen Harper man, and any foggy conservative like him.

[facefail]

God I hate Stephen Harper...

[crass770]

Amen brother

[Salmo77]

His hair always makes me wonder..."How can you actually make up a haircut like that???"

[Polar1zed]

@facefail Stephen Harper hates me

[deathzero34]

Not sure how this really affect you at all.

[JoeyD12345678]

How the fuck am i suppose to be proud of being canadian when im seeing all these fags hug each other on roller skates?

[UpstairsMaid]

@JoeyD12345678 stop hating. start loving. pray that their freedoms are never damaged, because you'll be next. defend freedom. thanks those that defend us. stop hating.

[546046]

Man this sucks, we need a really strong conservative government.

[Gnickk]

People who are against these kinds of victories had better get used to defeat.

[546046]

This world has really turned into a twisted, immoral place. . . .

[Gnickk]

I'm not sure you know this, but we gays have existed throughout history and in all societies, including the childhood from which you don't remember a gay rights movement. The gays were there anyway, and you probably knew some when you were growing up, but you didn't know it. We sure ain't new. All that's changed is that fewer people hate us than did before.

[546046]

It's not gays I have a problem with, unless they're macking in front of my face, it's mainley the marijuana part as well as our government being insanely flexible. It really gets to me. (I'm only 16 btw, and I know a couple gay people and I'm fine with them.) BTW some of this documentary is complete bullshit, there's a part where some chick says "You can walk down the streets of Toronto smoking a joint and no one will care." BULLSHIT. If anyone did that they'd be busted by the cops instantly.

[Gnickk]

I've walked down the street in Toronto smoking weed plenty of times. Plenty of times I've seen other people doing it. Do you even live in Toronto?

[546046]

I do, now go take a dick in the ass.

[Gnickk]

Ah, to be 16 again. Tee hee!

[facefail]

Haha i know, right? This internet tough-guy's clearly got a loooooot to learn.

[crass770]

umm, no..

[546046]

Last year when I smoked weed it was a god damned mission to find a spot to burn where the cops couldn't find us. I also had a friend who was arrested for marijuana possession. Complete BS.

[CeNestPasUneBande]

Haha I love this. Canadian identity has become pretty much showing love and support for everyone in Canada. Canadian identity is love.

[Anghellik9]

0:33 - Trailer park boys!

[Superman54]

pot was re-banned in 2008. the supreme court overturned the lower courts decision. its our fault for electing harper and the conservatives, and the liberals fault for that damn sponsorship scandal. however int he next election, the conservatives are out, canada is a liberal country, and 25% of the coutnry smokes regularly, and 65% have smoked in past 3 years. we are the pot capital of the world.

[hobbes71002]

I'd love to vote liberal, but I dont want Ignatieff as prime minister.I wish all the leaders would just jump out a window and we could get a fresh batch.

[ReggieWinsor]

Harper is such an ASS!

[HomoCyborgZombie]

There's a funny thing they said.

"We're not americans, which is a big part of canadian identity."

This is so stupid.

We need our own identity.

Not say what we're and not say who weren't not, just to say who we are.

[ohmygawdyourweird]

I wanna start a revolution...

[jakechapy]

If Canada made pot legal but put more restrictions than tabbaco then it would be fine.

and pot activist is an idoit. He glorifies it too more than his country

[Ibis333]

Wow, this a bit like "quote mining". I believe the Vancouver footage is likely from an anti-globalisation protest, and I'm certain the riot in Montreal was a direct result of events on the hockey rink and the role of alcohol is kinda minor.

[man4cannabis]

pot is not legal in canada yet as of april 2009

[BishopRealTalk98]

It wasn't 2 years ago either. But I got pinched for a OZ. Which I think is over the legal amount. But something told me, even if I got caught with less then 15, like 12 I would still be charged.

[Channel1Backup]

In that case the arresting officer would probably have some sort of personal vendetta against you.

[BishopRealTalk98]

So is weed legal in Canada right now? under 14g's?

[yahyahtoopy]

if prop 8 passes im moving imigrating to canada

[Jerrehz]

LOL @ the last part.

I loved that, haha.

Showed how the couple (or friends) smoking marijuana compared to those retarded chimps causing chaos, lol!

I don't personally smoke it, & I can't stand the smell, but why would I go against it when it doesn't even effect my life? LoL. My whole family basically does it.

[gurkhaboy]

OMG!!! My Dad lived in Kesington Market when he went to University and I still hang out there for Dim Sum!!!
