OTTAWA -- Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says recreational marijuana will become legal in Canada on Oct. 17.
Trudeau made the proclamation during question period Wednesday, saying the provinces wanted more time to implement the new regime than originally anticipated.
"We heard from provinces and territories who told us they needed more time to transition to this new framework, so our government will continue to work in full partnership with them, to ensure the smooth and orderly implementation of this new law across Canada," Trudeau told reporters during an end-of-session news conference.

What's a few more months after 95 years of prohibition eh. IMHO I don't see the cops charging anyone for toking until the law changes at least in most provinces.
