Why don’t the people just pass an initiative to legalize cannabis? Is there a lack of support in the more conservative cantons?

how would a blood test possibly prove this?

"oh - this is CBD weed, but I did just get back from America where I was smoking a ton"

Wow that's nuts - I did not know that.

As stupid as the law is, have you actually heard about a single case this was done? I mean 10% of the population here consumes it regularly, any park, concert, heck even bigger street will have typical smell more often than not. It was legal here 2 decades ago for brief period of time.

Thats to say - police are generally fine with it. At least in big cities, expect some some random redneck chest thumping far out in the woods/alps.

And if you cause problems, expect no end of stuff cops can pull out on ya, just like anywhere else.

Laws that are overbroad and allow abuse any time the police are mad at you are bad anywhere.

South Korea sometimes pulls this too.

Also other parts of SE Asia will demand an on the spot piss test.
