Why is marijuana still not legal in Canada?

[lost201a]

Around 2003 it seems a wave was hittting the media and government that marijuana was going to be legal soon. Than some strange phenomena no one talked about it any more . Now 8 years after that we are going back in time not progressing.

What is going on?


From wikipedia

Several polls since 2003 have found that a majority of Canadians agreed with the statement, "The use of marijuana should be legalized", the latest being the 2009 Angus Reid poll, with 53% for legalization.[2] However, the current government, the Conservatives, are attempting to pass a law with "mandatory minimum" penalties and jail sentences for drug crimes. Cannabis users are specifically targeted

And what is up with the media bias now , they where not so much like this before.



Full of myth and media bias .
Public health approach to marijuana use beats criminal model

Why are they not asking why is tobacco and alcohol legal and socially acceptable but not marijuana .
