There was a dramatic uptick in the amount of cannabis seized at the border after pot became legal

OTTAWA — The number of cannabis confiscations at the Canadian border increased more than 60 per cent year-over-year in the first six weeks after pot legalization, new statistics show.

As a result, bringing cannabis into Canada is against the law even when travelling from places that have loosened their laws on marijuana use, and despite the fact recreational consumption is now permitted in Canada. The newly released statistics do not indicate how many charges resulted from the 329 confiscations in the six-week period last fall.

The border agency also saw a massive year-over-year jump in the number of cannabis interceptions through searches of parcels sent to Canada by mail during the six-week period.

Maybe people thought it was, you know, legal?

“The Canada Border Services Agency is linking the rise to the fact it began asking people last fall whether they were bringing cannabis into the country.” No so called “dramatic uptick”. Just click bait headlines.

Hmmmm wonder how much of it actually made it to official lockup? 😂
