Yes it certainly is.
Currently, it's on the way to full legalization here in Canada.
Whether or not that is a good thing will remain to be seen.
I'm not pro-or anti anything as I truly believe that each and every person, is going to do whatever it is they are going to do in this life, regardless of whether or not it is "legal".
I know many that used to smoke recreationally, who now, no longer smoke.
I know some who would never have touched THC products that now do, even before it has been legalized completely.
Many of them were placed on Ritalin or SSri medications and have used these products to get off the prescription drugs that were, in the end, making them miserable and degrading their biology.
Will the economic boost from the "legalized" recreational use of marijuana products do anything for us as a society here in Canada?
Only time will tell.
Personally, I will be getting a medical Rx for mine each and every time I decide I may want to have it in my life.
For the last three months, I have not used any because I have just not had the desire to.
But, changes in season change how our energy levels adjust and I may need a non-toxic dopamine boost from time to time.
So there is an answer from a Canadian who has been watching this process happen over the last few years and thinking it will be a good thing for many who, may have avoided it's use for medical reasons based on the fact that it was not "legal".
Maybe my own mother will break out a toke of indica and see if it will help with her ongoing insomnia.
Humanity is an ever learning-through-hindsight species and I am glad to be part of a time where we are being able to try things for ourselves and make up our own minds.
