It's interesting to see how things are loosening up within the States, but not the case for Canadians crossing the border. Never mind criminal records for possession (even if it was pardoned), I heard recently that they asked Canadians at the border if they've ever smoked it, when they answered yes, they were denied entry. Seems to me that it was even noted so that they would be denied entry in the future as well. This was told to me by a co-worker, who had been told by someone that this happened to, so you never know all the truth in it...but it is beginning to seem that the "war against drugs" is for people living outside of the States.
