I’ve been advising all my crazy cannabis Canuckers to scrub all their electronics before they even think about going south, this year.

People are being denied entry at US boarders and are being put on a no-fly list because of their cannabis affiliations.

This cartoon was published in one of the local papers in my area on September 20th, 2018.

Stay safe Canadian Boomers we’re aren’t completely out of the cannabis closet yet.

None of our team crosses that border nowadays. Sad, but we are trapped within Canada because we use a certain plant! Not that Canada isn't awesome, but we hate feeling trapped.

We feel the same. :(

Hang in there! We'll catch up eventually :/ A day late and a dollar short is what my pops always said lol

yep it sucks my mum wasn't allowed to go on holiday there because she once got arrested with weed! not fair at all

Like the situation is going to horrible just because of cannabis crazy!

Couldn't post due to the update. But this is hilarious. We didn't get up to NS this year. So we missed out on a couple weeks of truly wonderful satirical cartoons.

I thought this was only an issue if you willingly admit to working in the cannabis industry. I feel if that's the case one could describe their job in a way that is neither self-incriminating nor just telling a lie at the border.

lol what? It's the other way around, we have legal cannabis here in America and you Canadians have the draconian cannabis laws. We grow cannabis and export it and have legal dispensaries you are the ones wiyh autistic leftists in charge stupid backwards Rothschild canadians.. we are Rockefeller Americans and we have jpmorgan tesla free electricity

Wtf Kid...go back to sleep in your moms basement. You know fuck all.

It took me reading your post to understand the cartoon, but once I did it clicked. The cartoon is funny. The real life situation probably isn't for a lot of people.

I didn't realize that they would do an electronics search when crossing the boarder. That's strange.

That is some crazy shit! I'm curious if there's a protocol in place that addresses this issue specifically or if it's a case by case deal where they have to take the totality of circumstances at hand for each person to make a decision? Obviously someone suspected of trafficking would be restricted in some sort of way but just being affiliated with the plant seems unjust.

My friend are you well? Its been ages.. a year almost .. lol you were one of the first to love my work when I got here and here we are.. Can you believe the irony cannabis was legalised for personal use and growth in South African last week .. hahaah... loving it... Cheer$;)
