Canada goes to pot

Article Abstract:

The US is concerned about cannabis imports from Canada, and marijuana is said to be British Colombia's top export crop. Plant genetics and other high tech developments have meant that British Colombian cannabis has become valued for its potency. The penalties for selling and growing marijuana are seen as too light by some critics, and there is concern about the involvement of organized crime in the trade. There is also concern about the impact of the trade in Quebec.

The Canadian media and banking industry are under pressure from the US, and there are questions as the the independence of Canadian politicians. The loss of Quebec could lead to other provinces joining the US, according to some analysts. There is a need for reform in a number of areas in Canada, including labor relations. Canadians have to take on some of the characteristics of the US in order to survive, and this includes accepting market forces.
