It should be noted getting asked is extremely rare but as we all know from reading recent news articles, it appears border patrol is intent on setting some precedent and making examples of people given Canada is on the verge of legalization. The current federal government in the US is also extremely anti marijuana. So it isn’t likely your average citizen is gonna get asked and it may not last forever.
The problem is that this isn’t like getting a speeding ticket. Getting banned for life is ####ing permanent. It could cost you months of work and around $1000 every single time you want to travel to the US for the rest of your life. The stakes are extremely high.
Now all that being said, if I’m the co owner of a company that makes weed supplies or owns a dispensary, I’d just not go to the US instead of risk getting caught lying. I’m not and have nothing to hide so there’s a lot less risk.
