#QuickTapLive Survey: Torontonians Will Buy Marijuana From Black Market Despite Legalization

Many Torontonians are rejoicing at the recent announcement that the federal government will be legalizing marijuana by next spring.

A recent survey by #QuickTapLive, the real-time data collection tool of QuickTapSurvey, shows that the majority of Torontonians polled would still buy marijuana from the Black Market instead of the government.

Here are some of the survey results based on a poll of 500 Torontonians during the 4/20 rally at Yonge and Dundas Square in Toronto. Equal numbers male and female were surveyed.

40% said they would buy it from the Black Market.

24% said they would buy it from the government.

36% said they would buy it from whichever source is the cheapest.

However, most interestingly, over 73 percent said that they would buy from the government if there was clarity in the legislation on how that money would be used. But since there hasn’t been enough clarity, the above numbers preside.
