Except for pot smokers...
@Lizard_of_Ahaz It was so funny when they opened the weed stores in Quebec. They ran out of weed within a week! They had to wait several months until they could grow some more!
@QuidamOutrepont They don't run out down here but nobody carries the strain I use for my PTSD and my damned sister killed off my plants. The closest place to me I can get the seeds is Canada and I doubt USPS would take kindly to the seeds coming through the mail.
They have been using the wrong sales pitch is all just tell people if we converted to Metric they could legally drive 100 KPH on the freeways and the dumbass conservatives would rebel if you didn't convert the country to metric...

Canada, a land where snow is measured in centimetres and men in inches!
On American speedometers, there are both kilometers and miles. They can't look at the dial without figuring out which is shorter.

We're idiots when it comes to the metric system.

Posted by CliffordCookDonald Trump is so Bible, when he heard it would be easier for a camel to get through the eye of a needle than for a wealthy man to go to heaven, he just had a gigantic needle built to ride his camel ...
Posted by CliffordCook([stopchristiannationalism.com], when he heard there was an apparition of the Virgin Mary, he cut to the front of the line to grab her by the pussy.
