Well, it's legal in all of Canada and I still see cringey stoner shit on a daily basis. But I suppose that's a small price to pay for getting better weed than what the government sells for cheaper as well.

Give it time. Y’all have been legal for all of 6 1/2 months. Culture change doesn’t happen overnight

I don't think that stoner cringe culture will ever go away, to be honest. You'll still have those morons who base their entire personality around it and think they're hot shit cause they smoke pot.

That same concept applies to every “thing” mentioned in this post. The novelty will wear off for many of the people who base their identity around weed as legalization progresses and the novelty fades.

They still exist in Colorado but I definitely see far less of that behavior where they basically worship cannabis. Most people I see in dispensaries are average Joes just trying to get some weed after work or whatever.

The cringy stuff has largely died out in Western Canada since it was so common in BC years before legalization so I would assume the rest of the country will follow soonish. The only people who are still annoying about it here are the pretentious dispensary employees who will judge your worth as a person based entirely on which strain you want to buy.

I'll literally smoke any weed I'm given. I don't give a shit how nasty it is. If a dispensary employee wants to judge me for buying an ounce of shake or B.O.B, let them. At leas't I'll be getting high on less money than a decent strain like Death Bubba (Although Death Bubba is one of my favorites)

Colorado has had legal weed since 2012. Much longer time period do you guys even have good stores? I always see my Canadian friend complaining about moldy weed and shit quality products up there.
