His flip flop on dope legalization was pretty dramatic from i'll never back up complete legalization to (OMG I can get the youth vote) i'm the king of burning one down with my friends, lets legalize it, yeah.

I'm neither a member of "the youth vote" (I'm in my mid-30s), nor am I a pot smoker, but this is one area where I agree with Trudeau 100%. The war on drugs (including the prohibition of marijuana) is bad government policy. Just this week,
five Nobel Prize-winning economists called for the end off the war on drugs. Two US states have already legalized pot, and several more will likely follow shortly. This is a proposal whose time has come.
