Australia; the land of sun, surf and soon to be legal weed? I’d wager yes to that question, provided several years is classed as “soon”. So what’s really going on with cannabis in Australia right now?

A lot of its citizens may not think of Australia as progressive, especially compared to some countries like Canada and regions like Scandinavia. On a global scale however it is certainly up there.

Australia is no trailblazer when it comes to progressive policies, however it’s certainly not one of the last countries to jump on board either. For example, Australia was the 25th country to legalize same-sex marriage. This is nowhere near the front of the pack, however 25th out of 195 puts it in the top 15%.

So, how many countries have legal recreational cannabis? Again, this number varies depending on definitions, however the short answer is two; Uruguay and Canada. There are also a number of other places around the world that have legalized recreational cannabis in some parts of the country, for example, the United States.

There are other places who turn a blind eye given the boost to the local economy, for example Amsterdam in The Netherlands. And then, there are other countries who allow recreational cannabis for consumption but not for sale such as South Africa and Georgia. That’s not to mention the countless countries who have decriminalized recreational cannabis. Or the countries who don’t often enforce it, provided it’s a small amount and deemed for personal use only.
