  • I smoked the finest Bubble Hash in B.C.

  • marijuana party thats what we need here.

  • Its part of us in canda :) none off us care. The amairans are just jelus . And they are all in debt and fat cuz they all eat at mcdonnads

  • hell yeah i toke i smoke im proud not to smoke chemicals and tar fuck that shit

  • Canada & Cannabis go together like winter and toques!

  • If people want to get high why the fuck does the government have to oppose it? what happened to the pursuit of happiness? is it because they can't control a person who is 'happy'?

  • I guess the future of Canada is going down the tubes. Brain dead fucks.

  • @NorthNorth2009 fuck you i smoke love it like it your the brain dead fuck if you think it is bad for you hahah you know the average amount of people that die from marijuana a year is 0.000000 now who is the brain dead fuck

  • @fruitbruiter4life Go ahead smoke it; so the ones that don't smoke up can manipulate you with their lucid minds.

  • Well, normal cigarettes are legal, why not cannabis? I mean, I wouldn't smoke anyway, but at least joints wouldn't have tar and other chemicals and shit in them, and I think they're doing studies on it 'cause it's good for cancer or something.

  • @malakaki111 hell ya i smoke i toke im proud not to smoke cigs

  • @superstud666 only certain jobs. it is employer based, not govt. controlled is the point. :)

  • breaking a crime, hahahaha, whatever the fuck that means

  • I love living in Canada. Pot is so easy to get and for very cheap too, and the fact that no one cares if you smoke it just makes it even better :D

  • @DjErryl Don't forget more potent as well!

  • @chronikmusik Of course! And pure, none of them stupid chemicals in it.

  • legal cannabis= growing economy. just say now

  • I LOVE CANADA!!!  <3

  • Shocking, absolutely shocking.

    On a completely different topic, how do I emigrate to Canada?

  • @Highlyskeptical would you like to know? i work at the embassy. :)

  • @Highlyskeptical btw this is from 2008, now the green party has seats in government

  • @Highlyskeptical I've been researching it and Canada is really welcoming, It's such a great country i can't wait to move there!

  • abundance of land, very relaxed laws, and a large pot smoking neighbor make it great for Canadians to grow. :)

  • the american at the end of the video is an asshole. canada's policies are canada's business and he can take his 'opinion' and shove it.

  • Bc bud rules!!!!

  • i was on a flight from Ottawa from BC and the pilot points out the field. no word of a lie, you have too remember there is no drug testing in Canada for jobs, school, ect...

  • @cptmuska There is drug testing in Canada for jobs, school, ect.. why would you say there isn't?

  • @LittleMikeStarCraft to go to any university at any level, no drug testing. to have a job the requires a criminal profile, such as cop, prime minister sure they drug test them but you are being more ignorant than I am with ucomment.

  • @cptmuska Well.. I live in Canada. And I have been drug tested more times then you I am sure.

  • @LittleMikeStarCraft what the hell is it you do to get drug tested, you must be a criminal...

  • @LittleMikeStarCraft what did you do, you are a criminal Im guessing...

  • @cptmuska I have worked for a number of unions, which requires drug testing and a physical. If you have any type of health insurance, or have been to the hospital ever.. you would have had your blood and urine tested for a number of reasons.

    If you do drugs, people will know about it.

  • @LittleMikeStarCraft well, you must be joking. our hospitals can barley keep track of whats wrong with people already. anyways, as in the states some companies require company wide drug testing, but if you research, it is much much less than in the states, and the drug testing is not for pot... it is for hard drugs, and other substances. dont reply lol

  • @cptmuska I can reply. You first statement is just plain wrong. "If you research.."

    Saying that isn't going to make you original statement any less incorrect. Anyways, who cares.

    Pot isn't something anyone should even worry about in the first place.

  • like to arrest anyone whos "break a crime".... hhaah,,, fat fucker'

  • A bunch of people with the muchies... how scary!

    Although I guess we could become #1 in meth use instead...

  • Legalize it, Don't criticize it.

  • FUCK BBC

  • the police chief is a pothead you can see it from a mile away!!!! PEACE

  • Go to Video HQ for more

    Help Free Schapelle Corby locked away in an Indonesian jail for 20 years for a crime she did not do.

  • Comment removed

  • Id rather have guns and not need them and weed too

    vote Ron Paul 2012

    back to the constitution.

  • We need something like this in england! Its a god dam plant, the only people that want it illeagle still are the rich snobby cunts who bealeve everything.

  • I cant belive how thise can happend in canada, and in Mexico theirs a fucking cartel in every cornner fighting for the weed business and in the US they make like they dont like mariguana.... I dont smock mariguana but it's abiusly better to have it legalize and control it. The same happend with alcohol... come on! the only reason they dont legalized it's because the price of it would drop a lot more and it would not produce the same amount off billions it does now.

  • if you rather have guns then weed on the streets vote Stephen Harper lol

  • All this fuss over a plant.

  • @ginger punk the reason that we had to give into the states demands is that by closing off the border we would loose almost all of our fresh produce. also we need to send the oil to the states to be refined before we can sell it.

  • Tests being resulted: Positive the people are now more easier controlled, and

    less to object. They also are less likely to protest, and do any real thinking.

  • Paying taxes funds un-organized crime

  • omg.... WHICH WAY TO CANADA!!!!

  • that cop is a little bitch.........he shouldnt touch marc emery

  • CANADA JUST GOT A LOT MORE INTERESTING!!

  • Why prohibition? It's not working!

  • At 2:09 The Guys Says "iLike To Arrest AnyOne BREAKING A CRIME" Lmao

  • @BeatzGoHardd Why do you capitalize the first letter of every word? It looks retarded. Are you American?

  • wow, bbc must have found the 5 people in canada who are whole heartly against pot and put them on camera, everyone else either smokes it or doesn't give a shit, because let's be serious, it's just pot

  • honestly, marijuana is sooo much better for you than most prescription drugs. chill out. do we need to bring the hippies back here in america???

  • so why isnt he being arrested? beats me im just a cop lol

  • Sad to see so many comments, where people are begging to be rob of their fundamental rights. The one who claim " legalize, regulate, tax it." are begging for their slavery and falling right in to the trap of the selfish, greedy, power freak that want to tax and control our food.

  • aha weedguy's in this 

  • you can't blame the people who try and earn good money from smugling some weed in bc. Can you imagine having to work in starbucks for 8 hours a day or some boring fast food chain earning crappy wages. You can't blame people for having a go. THe government take the piss and enslave people in time wasting jobs that eat you're life away for nothing.

  • YEAH!!!! free marc!

  • ...trees and fishing ....hahaha ignorant brit

  • what a waste of life.. need to start giving morels to our kids.laws need to be inforced

  • @TheDexterdog Whats a waste of life? what are they doing that ruins or makes theyre life worst? I dont see anyone of those stoners depressed or crying about marijuana addiction. quit being a troll and go watch JB video's, also you act like they promote child marijuana usage.... STFU and do what I said earlier.

  • @TheDexterdog LOLOLOL morels are mushrooms!

  • I hope people get smart and stop saying that pot is good Health Canada and the Winnipeg regional health authority have proof that it slows your brain function and just like cigerates you may not be affected by it but hey theres a chance why take that chance?

  • @Mrguy533 because they're adults and shouldn't have the government telling them what they can and can't do with their body, no matter how "unhealthy" you claim it to be?

  • @Mrguy533 Don't drink water or eat food tomorrow, there is a chance you myth die from it. While not as poetic, nor graphic as images of great battles between arch-angels and arch-demons, the war between Ignorance and Truth is far more real a challenge than an image akin to Universal Championship Wrestling. Stacked against the forces of universal truth and knowledge is the human condition that worships ignorance as a kind of heavenly bliss- that not to know is somehow better than the truth.

  • @Mrguy533 ya and what does alcohol do to people? i'll tell you this buddy im not the smartest man out there but i do live around the hardest working people! who run farms build giant hunt camps and logg wood for a hobbie the kind of people that build this beautiful nation called canada! and they smoke weed and look down at alcohollics! ya we love are beer too but we drink responsibbly and sit around the fire smoke joints and talk about what will build next it's are culture true canadian culture!

  • a grow op like the fake one they set up would bring in more than 20grand a year, you can usually crop out like 3-4 times a year, and some high-yeild indica or mix strains can harvest up to a pound each plant, and that looked like around 30 plants, give or take some, 30poundsx3.5times/year, wayy more than 20 grand

  • @ dc bud your forgetting that when Canada tried to lower the conscequences for having small amounts of weed the u.s.a threatened to close it's northern border bullying the Canadian government into scrapping the idea

  • @Generalkimar When that happened I dont understand why Canada didn't just say 'fine, close our boader and live without the oil we power your country with' lol

  • No not at all I was trying to say that the us has bigger problems to worry about than recreational marijuana use and should start working on prosecuting criminals in their own country before medling with canadas views on marijuana

  • @Generalkimar No one is U.S. is "meddling with Canadian views on marijuana." Don't blame us for the laws your government passes and you don't like.

  • @DCFunBud Is that why the DEA has offices in Canada? Seriously, your country is part of the problem for us. Sawry.

  • @FuckingStanz your right. The US needs to chill out and leave us alone (along with everyone else). Plus the benefits of legalization are so obvious, an estimated 7 billion dollar industry. The pot is going to get smoked anyways, the government might as well legalized it and do what its best at by taxing us and taking more of our money.

  • Comment removed

  • @dcfunbud: lemme see if I remember this correctly u.s.a's invasion of Iraq=thousands of dead soldiers and civillians, deaths caused by Canadian marijuana smokers = 0

  • @Generalkimar So, the war in Iraq justifies the violation of Canadian drug laws by Canadians.

  • Go Canada ! Marc Emery your a star !

  • we as canadians need to legalize and further develop more uses for this wounderful canadian pastime

  • Bet u the camara man got high with the crew XDD

  • 5:25 Dude... Its our Fucking Conutry we Can Have Any Rule We Want Shut The fuck up And Get Life...

  • CUNARCKS = LOSERS...

  • Freudian Slip-

    "I'd like to arrest anybody who's breaking a crime!" Police love pot ; )

  • Proud to be canadian ;)

  • "id like to arrest anyone who is breaking a crime " 2:08

  • that pot leaf at the beginning has 9 leaves lol fucking Canadians and there crazy pot way of life.

  • and yet alcohol is legal, which is a greater cause of problems than marijuana.

    Stoners are less likely to harm themselves/others than alcoholics.

  • police officer: :I'd like to arrest anybody thats breaking a crime." Breaking? more like committing

  • roight. cherrio

  • the legalization of marijuaner is fun loving but also drug peddling affair that just aboot anywhere else in the cilvilized world, would have been nipped in the bud.

  • This big weed rally is no different than a big gatherin' at your local pub drinkin' beer. Except who gets violent on weed? Nobody I know of. Every time you go to a club there's fights and shit that starts for nothing because people feel all big and tough while drunk. But how many fights break out at these social weed gatherings? Is there a need for police like there are after the clubs? No

  • "social experiment" doesn't sound far off.

  • seems Canada is more progressive with legal industrial hemp generating a billion dollar, and allowing marijuana with revenue in excess of 7 billion dollars. Yet the catered to the U.S. by handing Marc Emery over to them :(

    Prohibition last days are numbered. It's not working and more people turning to pot because it is a safer alternative than alcohol. Politicians need to pay attention as it is becoming a mainstream issue and will cost them votes.

  • I was at the Rally, and I got one of those joints!!!! my my my what A day

  • I can't believe the reactionary tone of this report...

    Then again it's obvious the issue is being vilified because decriminalization would seriously affect the most powerful people in the US: Can you imagine the most heavily armed (the police forces), the nastiest (the criminal lawyers) and the booming detention industry OUT OF A JOB?

    Would you want to be around when that happens? Just look what happened in Germany in the 1930s and come to your own conclusions...

  • Look at all those joints! :D I wish I had them. -.-

  • Government grown, government approved. Can anyone else say government backed pharma corporations.

  • At the start of this video the news lady states that an estimated 7 million dollars is made fr this herb. If it was legal it wouldn't yield this level of cash money. It also wouldn't feed the 'criminal under world'

    It would probably line the pockets of empty suits and reptiles.

    A cop walking around in a massive forest bitching about people growing cannabis in a fucking forest! Ha I didn't watch the rest of this video I just felt compelled to say my piece....

    Let's free the weed and dive

  • in your face big brother. eat bud.

  • Cannabis Canada.

    Soil in B.C. is so good to grow top quality Cannabis.

    Cannabis is a natural and sacred herb.

  • sucks I now live in a tiny town on lake simcoe and cant find some buds anywhere. LEGALIZE NOW please, so I can just grow some.

  • laws politics aside

    lemme ask every canadian and american something

    who has bigger crime rates, who has better health care, who spends more than half their money on war

    ask yourself those questions

  • Free Marc Emery

  • medical use is legal in cali. this nov we will vote to legalize...

  • I was just wondering if Canada's people and politicians are cool with cannabis and the cops can really give a shit why is not at least decriminalized overthere.

  • I hate how they say Americans think that this is leading to organized crime. Which is true but wouldnt be if it was legal and distributed like achohol. Stupid poloticains. (sorry for spelling)

  • there should be a law saying that everyone should smoke pot and the world would be a better place...just look at us Canadians, and how nice and caring we are...

  • @canada995 TRUE DAT!

  • giving weed for free...that guy is GOD..

  • All americans dont think the same way as this douche bag here. We love canada and its way of thinking. Rock on Canada! Love, Kansas

  • Marijuana laws are only enforced on the grounds that they are laws. The laws are based on marijuana being a dangerous drug, harmful to ones self and society as a whole. That claim is based on NOTHING!

    How do you fix this? Make sure you vote and tell others to vote ONLY for the politicians that speak with insight and reason. Never before have we had something with positive implications on nearly every problem in the USA!

    Fix the economy, Stop the violence, Heal the Sick ~LEGALIZE MARIJUANA ~

  • Free Marc!

  • The marijuana spokesperson in this video, Marc Emery, has now been extradited to the USA for a 5 year jail term for shipping marijuana seeds to the US by mail. Canada sold him out to support the relationship with America's outdated war on drugs.

    There are much bigger things in this world to worry about rather than a naturally growing, relatively harmless plant.

  • lmao i love that pile of joints... would be so funny to roll all those

  • The only reson why pot is illegal in this country and others, is becuase the government cannot sell it to you.

  • what a rip off, we get processed bull shit like mc donalds

    and they get high quality BC bud in exchange...

  • happy canuck im are!!!!!!

    its our life

    if we smoke

    its our decision

    illegal ? ! ....................you would be surprised who smokes behind closed doors

    i recently viewed a you tube vid of a 80 year old lady .....who stated if they like it ...leave them alone, god bless granny

    keep on rollin

  • i wish i were canadian

  • Cop looks high...

    Id like to arrest anyone whos breaking a crime?

    LOL wtf/

  • @hash121212 I bet he is saying that to look good ;) he probably smokes too. Haha

  • BEAUTIFUL

  • haha dude that was a serious spliff smoking, that made me so happy

  • Just another reason for it to be legal everywhere !

  • $2,000 and you dont go 2 jail wow!!! amazing

  • Most cops just don't care in Ontario. They'd probably just dump it and tell you to leave.

  • Wish i had the money to move there

  • who gives a fuck if its illegal, it makes it better.

  • Dammnit. Im tired if this "war". Its pot. Relax.

  • mariwaner

  • This video makes me proud to be a canadian and glad im not american

  • America is warmer.

  • @smokingajayble How pathetic that your identity is based on not being another country.

  • @Moionfire Do you also think its pathetic that even if i tried i couldn't give less of a fuck what you believe to be pathetic?

  • @Moionfire You should care. Your country's obsession and inferiority complex with the USA makes Canada a laughing stock...

  • @Moionfire ooh no some dumb fucking loser thinks i have an obsession with him... again, couldn't give less of a fuck. In fact it seems as tho ur the one whos so hung up on Canada not the other way around. Guess what moron, ur an asshole, dosent matter if yer from usa, canada or any other country, your still an asshole. Im cool and have lots of friends, again dosent matter what country im from im still cool and have lots of friends. So yea dont give a fuck. Loser

  • fuck yeah

  • @smokingajayble i wish i were a canadian..im from usa Florida

  • @Adro407 emigrate to canada, get citizenship and don't be an asshole :P

  • @smokingajayble  YUp :D

  • @smokingajayble Why do Canadian criminals make you proud to be a Canadian? It would appear Canadians feel free to ignore their own laws whenever convenient. Hardly, a source of national pride.

  • Great video, though only touches on the bad consequences of prohibition.

    What fun, throwing out joints!

  • LOLZ never legalize it !!!! u ask why??/ because the government would just package it and add harmfull chemicals like they did with ciggarettes

  • yea and it would be heavily taxed

  • "I'd like to arrest anybody thats breaking a crime" lol repeat that again... think you mean law, lmao dumb cop!

  • Funny how no one talks about the illegal cigarettes that come from the american side of native reserves and are sold in canada. Almost everyone I know up here who smoke , smoke native cigarettes. As well as alcohol and guns that pour in from USA. Guns kill people, marijuana saves people, who the fuck is trying to make people believe marijuana is dangerous. Prohibition is way more dangerous. You shouldn't go to jail for growing dope, fuck the DEA and their hardline approach. Free Marc emery!

  • correct native ciggarettes come up to ontario as well all the time and tons of guns come into toronto, both worse than pot. Marc Emery is a hero

  • if growing and selling cannabis is a crime...

    then when is alcohol producing and tobacco producing a crime... which actually have deaths related to them , when cannabis does not?

  • FOR REAL! doesent 7 billion say enough for a legalization?!

  • lol, the HQ button reminds me of the half q im about to pick up.

  • Prohibition on marijuana is not about weed it is about HEMP.Our weed economy is insignificant compared to the threat of the HEMP industry. What cannot be made of HEMP please someone tell me. The weed issue is a diversion. What about the small industry that would erupt from HEMP cultivation a farm would be a stand alone self sufficient factory with very happy workers. Can you just imagine or should I ask or DARE you to imagine? Big business would never stand for this

  • What a bunch of bullshit! See how the view of the media is leening toward one side compared to the other.Corporate owned media. a fine theatre for propaganda and human thought conditioning.

  • Thats the difference between our countries, Canada is a country with our own fuckin laws, mind you own shit American cunts

  • What we have to do now to smoke some... what a waste, because of some greedy corrupt business. Revolution!

  • id like to arrest anyone bracking a crime 2:08 watch it what a dumb fuckin cop! join my group on facebook its called GET INVOLVED! JOIN NOW!

  • "too bad thats gonna change very soon. FUCK BILL C-15 !!!!"

    annoying how things always have to get worse before they can get better : /

  • hmmm i think that bill will be amended by the senate. the weight of evidence that most of the policies contains within c-15 will have negative consequences is well recognised. stephan harper is a nutsuck

  • families should be able to grow 10 plants at a time i tihnk. it seems to me that the only people who have issues with pot, is the non pot smokers...... how can you argue over something you dont really know n e thing about. sure you might now thc counts and all that business, but theres no explanation for being high.

  • Bring on the 2010 Winter Olympics!!

    Ross Who?

    Ha! Ha! Ha!

  • This is why my NDP file was closed!! C Bell my NDP MP won her seat here in BC by 300 Votes after this! Members of my Compassion Club, family and friends supporting the SICK, then add all the POT HEADS!! Noreen a running MJ Party Member was LOCKED UP AND DRUGED here for a Compassion Club ONLY Grow-op with some HC Licensed Plants, and Mrs Bell NDP did and said NOTHING!! I am a disabled Veteran and Peter Stoffer NDP VAC Critic did nothing!

    USE YOUR HEADS PEOPLE!

  • i want out of america! I am a american canadian. You legalize pot then you can put the real criminals behind bars. Rapist, pedo's, murderers.. ETC.

  • Haha!

  • $2000 fine for cultivating marijuana. I didn't even know that, I live in Ontario.

    too bad thats gonna change very soon. FUCK BILL C-15 !!!!

  • its having serious trouble in the senate most of the provinces are saying this bill is a waist of time

  • It's also a crazy thing how in Massachusetts in America you can be jailed for Blaspheming against the Christian religion. But, no one is arrested for it. And Massachusetts is the least religious state in America.

  • Y'see. Why ruin a good thing and traffic outside of Canada? You bring the winy Americans into the mix and soon you'll have sanctions and people bitching left and right about a simple plant.

  • legalize it

  • im moving my third world ass to canada!!
