You would tax corporate revenues to grow it and there was a 25 to 40% tax rate on the sale of it? With half of the taxes going toward drug rehab centers.

It would be a criminal offense to sell it to somebody under the legal age

Driving under the influence would be a criminal offense like drinking and driving. No idea how to test for that but there would have to be a way.
I think that's a pretty good idea, mirror the laws that govern alcohol. Don't allow it out in public or you get a fine, just like liquor. Sell it in liquor stores or cold beer and wine. The tax generated could help pay for health care. It would save the courts lots of time and free up police and crown prosecutors to go after real crime. I don't use marihuana by the way, just think its silly to keep it prohibited when we could use the cash flow as a country.
