The Legacy of Prohibition.

And a part of Canada, repeating history in a different way.


So you believe we live in a free society and should benefit from all things related to that.

However, a move by the provincial government of Quebec, recently brought several thousands to the streets of Montreal in protest. What caused this reaction you might ask. Mandatory vaccination? Tax increases? No the prohibition of cannabis and alcohol for the unvaccinated.

Much like Chicago in the 20's, Montreal has a deep rooted history of organized crime partially due to the fact of being a port city. Take five minutes and look up the history of organized crime in Montreal for the last century, you might be amazed.

What the government fails to realize is that those who choose to be vaccinated already are and those that aren't will remain that way.



"Prohibiting cannabis for a group of people just four years past legalization was a move in futility. The legacy market, also known as the black market still exists and has existed for decades".

As for alcohol, keeping others from purchasing it for those affected by the ban is impossible unless the divide with hate tactics employed by some levels of government and the mainstream media outlets works. Will we have speakeasies popping up with well dressed members of the criminal underworld along with beautiful ladies adorned with the historical garb of the flapper one could hope merely for the experience, however highly unlikely. Here it is almost 100 years to the day, that prohibition and the roaring 20s started in the US. The irony of a prohibitive move made by a government in the new 20s is not lost on me.



With microbrew brew, homebrew illegal stills running the outcome will be only benefit those that are willing to break the law. As for cannabis, the legacy market exists and will flourish again with this act.


The question remains will regions follow?

How will the crime affect society?

What would you do in this situation?
