Canadians Could Be Denied US Entry for Legal Pot Use
加拿大人可能因合法使用大麻被禁止進入美國
As Canada prepares to legalize recreational cannabis this October, US border officials warn of potential border crossing problems and even lifetime bans. A senior border official for US Customs warned that using and investing in the cannabis industry is federally illegal in the US even though several US states have already legalized recreational and medicinal marijuana use. Because of this, Canadians who admit to using cannabis or working in the industry could be denied entry and even banned from travelling or investing in the US for life. Shares in the Canadian cannabis industry fell shortly after this news broke. When asked to comment, Canada’s prime minister defended the US right to police their borders as they see fit.
加拿大打算在今年十月合法化娛樂大麻使用，美國邊境官員警告可能出現邊境穿越問題甚至是終身禁令。美國海關的一名高級邊境官員警告，即使美國多州已經合法化了娛樂和藥用大麻，但使用大麻或在大麻產業投資違反了美國聯邦法律。所以，承認使用大麻或在大麻產業工作的加拿大人可能被拒絕入境，甚至終身被禁止去美國旅游或投資。此消息公布后，加拿大大麻產業的股份出現下跌。在被問及有何意見時，加拿大總理維護了美國以其認為合適的方式監管邊境的權利。
