‘Some that have smoked are saying no, because they’re scared that they may be banned for life’
The mayor of Estevan, Sask., says local residents have been turned away at the nearby U.S. border after admitting to past pot use.
“It is a fairly serious concern,” said Roy Ludwig, mayor of the 11,258-person city located just 16 kilometres north of a North Dakota border crossing.
“Even people that might have smoked it 20, 30 years ago, they’re being asked, ‘Have you ever smoked cannabis?’ when they get to the U.S. border. We understand some people have said yes, that they have, and have been turned back.”
