A new survey suggests more British Columbians favour ending the prohibition of marijuana.
The Angus Reid poll shows three out of four people support taxing and regulating the drug.
That's up a whopping six percentage points from a year ago.
Pollster Mario Canseco says it reveals a growing distance between public opinion and the law.
"What's interesting is it's really hard over the past couple of years to get three out of four British Columbians to agree on anything. This is one of the issue where we are definitely different from the rest of the country. There's high support in other areas of Canada to legalize marijuana, but it's not as high as it is in B.C."
He says it's especially signficiant, considering Washington State is set to vote on a referendum on whether to decriminalize marijuana next week.
