Indeed it is a Canadian topic, but oz as you would know, and Canada, are very similar, and lived in Canada for some time, I can't help drawing a comparison on social issues like this one. Maybe Canada is more progressive than oz, afterall Multiculturalism is one of your greatest exports, and if the legal dope regime works out, maybe we'll stumble down that road as well. As for the ''riot''--tongue in cheek mate. No Australian government, federal or state is that brave.
