Enforcement: Increase taxes and make the nation a police state, which will increase market value and profit margins for growers because of reduced supply. A never ending escalation on both sides, until anarchy or revolt.

Legalization: Tax it, set up treatment programs, and raise a nation of potheads. Let the economy collapse and maybe they wise up.

Actually they(Canada) got the worst of one world. The world of non existant differences between modern Libertarian and Socialist views on drugs and other social issues(abortion, porn, etc. etc.).

Both ideaologies revel in the mantra that "drugs aren't bad and are "freedom"". The only difference is that both modern day Libertarians and Socilaists will look at a pollution power sucking pot farm and say "cool dude", while looking at a factory that produces wealth and products that benefit prople, the socialist will say "evil capitalist pig slave farm", while the Libertarian will say, "Oh come on that ain't so bad, but the pot farm is way cooler."
