Ok, it's a bit of a stretch pinning this news to the loonie entirely

A Canadian task force has issued its report on legalising Marijuana use and Bloomers has the details.

  • Pot retail should include a mail order option

  • Pricing should balance the health aspect vs curbing the black market

  • There should be restrictions on advertising

  • Canada should encourage small producers to enter market

  • Fed gov should regulate the market

  • Advises minimum age of 18

  • Should allow limited home grown pot for personal use

"Productivity" is the popular word these days among central bankers and economists, and it looks like it's going to remain low in Canada for quite some time.

The Canadian pot task force in action. It's for research, honest.
