Daily Mail: High times! Canadians celebrate the first day of legal recreational marijuana by smoking in the streets as they wait in massive lines outside the 111 stores across the country
* Canada officially became the first industrialized nation to legalize recreational marijuana on Wednesday
* Hundreds of cannabis-craving Canadians lined up at the 111 licensed stores now open across the country
* Toronto police launched a snarky public awareness campaign to remind people to stop calling 911 on smokers
* Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government has been working to legalize marijuana for the past two years
* Trudeau's hope is that a federally-regulated marijuana market will replace the black market
* Experts say that it will take a while for the government to catch up with the demand, and that most of the weed smoked during Wednesday's celebrations will have been purchased on the black market
Hundreds of Canadians have taken to the streets to celebrate the legalization of recreational marijuana following a nearly century-long ban.
Canada officially became the first industrialized nation to legalize the drug on Wednesday following a two-year push by Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government, which hopes to bring dealers out of the black market and into a regulated system.
Cannabis connoisseurs appear to have embraced the new system as massive queues formed outside many of the 111 legal pot shops now open around the country.

Then they get high and wrap their car around a pole, just nuts
I would be more worried about my lungs. The tars can't be benign, especially if the smoker lives in some polluted place like Los Angeles or any area in the L.A. basin and south.
"WNU Editor: No. I do not smoke pot."
Especially while wearing shorts. Very wise.

There's already a meme going around with an altered leaf on the Canadian Flag.
Just another thing to test people for, why throw more has on the fire?.
So kids now grow up that drugs are ok
Drugs are bad mmmkay but alcohol, ,pills, caffeine are mmmokay, kids drinking monsters and rockstars while vaping mmkay. Weed is bad mmmkay its make you laugh, eat and sleep mmykay.
Tens of thousands of Canadians could soon be eligible for a pot pardon, but lawyers warn about limitations
I am all for outlawing weed if at the same time booze and smokes are outlawed. If any of the three ok, then all three ok
Goverment regulated pot but you cant grow your own witch is backwards in my opinion.
