those two are also joined by the Green Party.

The ONLY party in Canada that does not support legalization is the conservative party.

So, the majority of voters across Canada are represented by political parties that support legalization.

The U.S. is, of course, more backward than our neighbors to the north - we don't like to admit we're not as innovative or have govt. that is less representative and more repressive - but that's our reality.
