O CANNABIS!! New Poll: Canada’s Wealthiest SUPPORT Marijuana Legalization By 74%
Not all is well for Prime Minister Stephen Harper
A recent Canadian pot poll which demonstrated over 75% of The Great White Norths residence look forward to the day when marijuana is decriminalized/ legalized for adults over 21 to consume. This most recent poll
indicates Canadas push for marijuana legalization has cultivated strong roots, growing by over 4% from the last time this chronic question was posed to the Canadian public in November 2012.
Deaf to public sentiment, blind to the political dead-end of marijuana prohibition Stephen Harper may soon find himself out of a cushy gig. Representing the right wing political position of the conservative party Harper has
adopted an incomprehensible position on recreational marijuana. First elected as Canadas Prime Minister in 2006,
Harper now finds himself implementing harsh punishments for a substance that over 69% of his constituents believe should either be decriminalized
Or outright legalized.
As a means of providing further insight into the sticky topic of marijuana legalization, the form research poll broke down there results by socioeconomic groupings: the
pro-pot poll discovered the highest support for the removing of criminal penalties for marijuana consumption existed amongst those making more than $60,000 a year while the lowest support for marijuana legalization was noticed by those making under $20,000 a year, with the poorest in strong support of increasing criminal penalties for marijuana possession.
Support for decriminalization/legalization is highest among the youngest (75%) and the Boomers (55 to 64 72%), among the wealthier ($60K to $100K 74%) and in BC (77%).
Thanks to PM Stephen Harpers crackdown on cannabis, a simple possession of less than 30 g can cost you $1000 and six months in jail.
