Since Canada's legalization of cannabis five years ago, researchers say the policy has had mixed results in terms of public health and justice reform.

From both sides when it bugs ya is a pain for sure. Not even weed, if I had 2 chain smokers as my neighbors I'd be very annoyed.

Obviously it'd be better for you if they were smoking less or were somehow able to direct it away from your place, but maybe a couple small / medium hepa filters will at least ease your discomfort instead of having to keep windows closed when you maybe want them open?

It would be nice if they just smoked in their home, but I'm not the type to be militant about what people do on their property.

I've learned to just deal with not having those windows open, even though I'd love to have them open more often.

The challenges when others smoke outdoors (both cigarettes and weed) in public places is probably more of an issue. Since I try to get outdoors to improve my health (physically and mentally), so not being able to as much as I'd like has a negative effect in the short and long-term.

Like I said, as soon as it starts to impact other people, it's a problem.
