they just want to stop the coffeeshop tourism in towns close to the belgian/german border

the smaller towns there are really fed up with the daily invasion of potheads, ban starts next week in those border towns

the ban in Amsterdam is scheduled for January 1, 2013

 

 

Why not stop with the border towns, like Maastricht? Bah, all of the Netherlands is tiny.

 

Edit: I just googled. Maastricht to Amsterdam is only about 200km. I travel twice that far for good sushi.

well, it's towns like Maastricht that pushed this ban, it will start there next week

Maastricht is a beautiful little town, 120.000 inhabitants, each year 1.500.000 coffeeshop tourists visit the city and Maastricht wants them to stay away.

They first proposed to install coffeeshops on the border, but belgium and germany were against that
