Legalizing Marijuana Rating Options

Yes, I think there's already a topic on this but those are from a really long time ago. As you all know Marc Emery (the prince of pot) ran for Mayor of Vancouver in 1996 and ever since he's been fighting for legalization for marajuana in Canada. And he owns his very own shop in Vancouver with a vapour lounge in it.

I live in Vancouver and I'm a huge supporter of Marc Emery. Im so glad that he is still fighting for legalization. I've been to his shop many times before and I've met Marc Emery himself there. He's a really nice guy and I think with time marajuana will be legal here.
What do you guys think of legalizing marajuana?

Reason for edit: It's "marijuana," not "marajuana."

In 1985, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved dronabinol (Marinol®) to treat nausea and vomiting (emesis) caused by chemotherapy in cancer patients who had not responded to other standard anti-emetic drugs. Dronabinol contains a synthetic form of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), an active cannabinoid in marijuana. Since that time, more effective drugs to counteract these cancer-related symptoms have been developed that do not contain any cannabinoids.

By the late 1990s, the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Medicine and the National Institutes of Health had developed reports on the medical use of marijuana. The drug’s benefit in some medical settings was confirmed, more studies were called for, and distinctions were made between smoked marijuana and chemically refined by-products that could be taken by mouth.

Maybe legalizing some substances in marijuana would not hurt, and these should be available to people with licenses or with some kind of knowledge of drugs, not to the entire population to get high off of.
