Yeah... every other Province set it the same age as their alcohol age Quebec always likes to act like they are the progressives of Canada but in many aspects they are the most regressive when it comes to tolerance and acceptance of diversity they are like the most hostile (excluding the Montreal area which shares more political values with english Canada) No offence to Quebequers tho. Im talking about Government policies. On an individual level of course it depends on the person Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessicaCampbell74U 0 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Then it is better to have both alcohol, cannabis, and cigarette age restrictions. But not one after another. Anyway, everyone under age will find a way to get it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doroteyo 451 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Having lived in Montreal for years, I actually think this is a good thing. It felt like everyone was high all the time when they legalized weed. Since I'm European I don't see why the drinking age should be 21 but frankly for weed, yes. While alcohol is more toxic, it's just a social substance in most cases. If you don't go overboard you're fine. Weed in my experience is a very antisocial drug and the behaviour-altering effects of a joint are much more noticeable and inadequate than those of a drink or two. Idk, I think Quebec has been a little out of it since they legalized weed but that's maybe just my opinion Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessicaCampbell74U 0 Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 Well, I get your point. Probably, those people were just happy that it is legal and smoked it everywhere. But I think that the number of weed smokers will decline, and only those who are underage will remain. I think everyone when they are underage they tried to get alcohol or weed. When I was a teen, I tried to sneak out with friends and get booze. When it became legal to buy alcohol, I simply lost interest in that. I just drink occasionally. The same thing with weed. Instead of smoking weed, I switched to vape with CBD oil. I order it on knockoutcbd.com and no more hiding from parents. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
