Go ahead and google it, you’ll get varying opinions from legal experts on the matter but the most common thing you’ll see is that you
can be denied entry or that you
can be banned for life. I’ve gone through customs many times, and speaking from my own personal experience I can say your statement that a person
will be denied entry for admitting to having used cannabis is not accurate. I’m not suggesting it’s going to do a person any favours as far as getting through but it is discretionary, like a lot of things at the border.

Why anyone would answer yes is beyond me. Of course you answer no.

Because when they scan your passport more than just you address pops up on their screen. They could also ask to go through your phone etc, so unless you’re 100% certain you have nothing that can be traced back to you having used cannabis you could be taking a greater risk by lying.
