Mexico's lower chamber approved a marijuana legalization bill Wednesday, setting the country on the path to becoming one of the world's largest legal marijuana markets.
It would also require that individuals, and not just associations of users, have a permit to grow plants for personal use. Each individual would be allowed to have six plants with a maximum of eight per household. Adults could use marijuana without affecting others or children, but if caught with more than one ounce they would be fined. They could face jail time if they had more than 12 pounds. Opposition parties did not support the legislation, which they say will lead to increased drug use.
