The Simpsons Predicted Canada’s Pot Legalization Long Ago

Canada recently announced legalizing marijuana in its country and it got me confused because all this time I thought it was already legal because The Simpsons said it in that episode where the guys went to Canada to get free prescriptions.

The scene has always felt weird to Canadians who knew the line wasn’t technically true, although enforcement has always been lax.

Now, this whole scene feels like someone in The Simpsons’ writers room accidentally read too far ahead in the book of future history which they stashed it there and predicted way too much.
