I've worked with guys that smoke and they are dangerous enough. So my opinion is NOT AROUND FIREARMS....but that's just me.

After reading these posts in this thread,there'll be a 60oz of Crown Royal and 10 2" thick T-Bones going on the camp table on party night in gratitude for 20 years of friendship and fellowship with the best hunting crew in Canada. Our lucky stars really aligned for this one.
We took the initiative to address this right after last year's hunt, given the impending legalization. Things learned about cannabis (by actually speaking with people who use it:
-There is no such thing as a 1-drink equivalent; and
-Its effect on different people can vary widely.
Our decision: Cannabis users are welcome to it in the evening after the guns are put away. If smoked it must be done so outside. Zero tolerance for use during the day.
For the hunt camps I have been to, the use of any controlled substance (for which cannabis is now a part of), for anyone responsible came either after the morning hunt, and used in moderation during the day, but as to not be impaired, and if there was anyone using more booze or weed, they would exclude themselves from the evening hunt. For some they consumed after the evening hunt, and stayed up as to not partake in the morning hunt.
If cannabis was present in the hunt camp before it was legal. It is still going to be present now. I don't think it will make a difference on who consumes it. Just like alcohol.
We hunt crown land, and for some that come up it is not just about the hunting, it is about coming up and spending a relaxing time with friends. Even though we are up there for a week, there have been some that have only hunted 1 or 2 days. As long as all the others are satisfied with our harvest, it never has been an issue.
There has never been anyone who is not responsible up at camp. We have invited new people up here and there, but they have been responsible as well. I think the group would definitely speak up if someone invited a guy/gal that was not responsible. They obviously would not be allowed back, and we would give the invitee a earful.

I wonder if it will have an effect on the number of deer put up on the pole.....a lot more guys sleeping in the stands/blinds during their watch :)
