Americans will be able to buy marijuana in Canada  – and it's possible that Amsterdam style "coffeeshops" could eventually become popular – Canada's federal government has decided to allow individual provinces to create their own rules governing public consumption.

It's left up to the individual provinces to make rules for pot tourism. However why would they say no to extra income. Ofcourse what happens when you cross the border smelling like pot is up to the US.

The U.S. embassy in Ottawa told the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation that "legalization of marijuana in Canada will not have any impact on marijuana's legality in the United States." It also warned Canadians to be "aware of possible actions they may face upon attempted entrance into the United States."

I've already been to one of those in Vancouver.  Although you had to bring your own weed someone apparently set up shop in the building next to it.  They even had a little glass room and if you bought anything (could even be just drink like juice or whatever) then you could go in the glass room and bake it out.  We went in there and smoked a joint.  Apparently Vancouver has bigger problems like heroin to deal with than harassing potheads.

They have those in downtown Toronto right now too. They're strict, though. You can't socialize with people you didn't enter with, there are time limits for seating, and if a band is playing you have to pay to get in I think. That's to avoid sellers setting up shop inside I assume.
