If decriminalized, possession of small amounts of marijuana, likely anything less than an ounce, would still be illegal. But rather than face a court date, offenders would get a ticket and a fine instead. Rather than a criminal matter, it's more like a speeding or a parking ticket.

Interesting. If this goes through I wonder how the US would react to these changes. Although I have never smoked pot, I think we should reduce the sentence for having small amounts as well. I don't see marijuana killing people as much as alcohol related accidents do on the road here in the US.
