With out knowing how cannabis will be sold or how and what we can do with it, what do you think will be the effect on small towns/cites if the police are given order to crack down on illegal selling/growing and the gov does manage to under cut the black market.

I can tell you the experience of Colorado which is that small towns can outlaw dispensaries but they can't outlaw home grows. They can limit plant counts inside city limits but that's it.

you mean stigma....???
cause that's gonna probably take some time....
I know plenty of people that would be embarrassed to purchase weed from a store front....
just because someone else in the community would see them there....
In turn they would by a bottle without batting an eye....
It will be the younger generations that will cast aside the stigma that prohibition caused....

Everyone should shut there fucking mouths. Go to the Dam.
Get over it. Some people go in the bars. Some people go in the Coffeeshop's.
Only real diff is the people who are coming out of the bars are more likely
to rape and kill.

It's science.

Should have been more clear I'm talking about the underground growers spending money in small towns that have a strong underground community. There is a lot of them in BC. Say the gov does some how magically undercut the black market.

I don't see how the government could under cut the bm.
The bm price is dictated by supply and demand plus risk factor.
Mandatory minimums didn't make the price sky rocket so why assume anything will change it now?
I don't know about bc but here in Ontario most small towns don't have their own police forces. They have the opp patrol highways and most domestic problems are rcmp.
