The truth about pot in Vancouver

1) For now, pot is technically illegal in Canada. The truth is in Vancouver personal possession is mostly tolerated. However, you could have problems with the cops if you smoke a big joint in a busy public area. If you choose to smoke pot in Vancouver be respectful and be discreet. Find a log on a beach away from people or something.

2) There are smoke friendly coffee shops in Vancouver. The New Amsterdam Cafe is one that is located close to downtown Vancouver. They do NOT sell pot, the deal is you buy a drink or snack and then you can have a seat and roll up a joint of your own stash. Must be 19 years old to enter these establishments.

3) . If you are an adult and you plan on purchasing pot ask someone you trust. It's the same here as everywhere in North America, its easy to find. NEVER buy drugs from street dealers. They are probably just looking to scam you.

4)Yes, you can buy seeds in Vancouver. There are a few places you can get them
