Dutch pot-smoking not taking hold because: “They’re stoned”.

Canada’s liberal-left intends to build our country by attracting the best and brightest such as these people.

In writing about the drug problem in the pot-smoking Netherlands, Vancouver Sun writer Ian Mulgrew stumbles onto some eloquent quotes from a Dutchman who advocates pot-smoking but may just have to move to “progressive” Vancouver (which is to say, progressively degenerating). 

[…]  “The market has changed completely,” van Schaik said [Nol van Schaik, a former national coach of the Dutch bodybuilding team and owner of the Willie Wortels pot-smoking coffee shops.] “Now, our minister is prosecuting growers, and what he’s doing is causing organized crime to come back to my back door.”

Ben Dronkers, another pioneer coffee-shop owner, said you didn’t need a weatherman to read the political winds.

“They are putting people in prison again for growing marijuana,” he told me. “It’s crazy.”

Dronkers had one explanation for why the pot-legalization movement had failed to solidify its gains in Amsterdam.

“They’re stoned,” he sighed. “That’s the real answer. Absolutely. They can talk about it for days, but try to move them. Come on…. As long as you smoke, who cares? Nobody cares, nobody gives a s—- any more. That’s really not good.”

That’s why some of them are now looking at bud-friendly B.C.

“There is no doubt about it,” de Fries said, “I [will] start a new business in Vancouver within two to three years for sure. That’s for sure. I love Vancouver.”
