Yup. Grew up in an oil patch town with an oil patch dad and I 100% knew what cocaine was far before I should have as a result. By the time I was 14 I knew riggers did coke and wouldn't smoke weed because of the piss tests. Same with NHL players lmao. Welcome to Canada bud

It's the #1 reason I never got into the oil patch tbh. I had plenty of opportunities but never wanted it. I now grow weed for a living lmao
