  • ... that in Japan, you can expect to pay nearly $60 for a gram? Source: The Japan Times, "According to a U.N. report, a gram costs an average of $58.30 in Japan, compared with $9.80 in the Netherlands and $20.50 in Singapore."

  • Hi Morgan695. The Japan Times article gives the figures you cite for lifetime use in Canada and the US, but gives 1.8% for Japanese lifetime use. The article gives the 15 to 64 age usage for Japan, while giving the lifetime proportion for Canada and the US, but implying that these last two are 15 to 64 figures. It may be easiest to change the article to give the Japanese lifetime use, which would be directly comparable.
  • I have no preference either way, but I think the proposed hook might make for some weird link piping issues; even now piping the link as "people in Japan have used cannabis" feels a bit awkward. 21:46, 13 December 2021 (UTC)
