Australia General Discussion 4.0: It ain’t easy under Albanese

[Vosem]

The Victorian Labor government has just intervened to kill an Inquiry into Cannabis legalisation, with Labor members flipping at the last minute to drastically water down the Inquiry's recommendations. Given the overwhelming public opposition to Cannabis Legalisation this is a surprise to no one, the only shock being it took them this long to kill it.

I find it interesting that cannabis legalization has remained so unpopular in Australia and New Zealand even as it's become an uncontroversial majority opinion in Canada and the United States -- can you say more about this?
