Banned for life from the USA... although I don't really believe that, it has been reported. I think a prepaid credit card would be best for now.
 
Honestly, within 5 or 10 years it seems pretty likely that all but the reddest of states will have it legal and my hunch is that the next president of any sort of progressive streak will legalize it at the federal level.

And, honestly, if they don't trend in that direction anyway a lifetime ban wouldn't be that bad regardless.
 
It's legal recreationally in Washington State too but it doesn't matter. The border, and customs, are federal so if there were a ban on people who'd bought cannabis then individual state laws wouldn't matter much.

That said, this is all in the theoretical stages right now so the idea of being super worried about it seems pointless to me.
 
Far from an epidemic but it is happening at some border crossings.

Oh, I'm sure it may be an issue during the current administration but that's a pretty far cry from a lifetime ban. I think it's pretty unlikely a Democrat-led DOJ, or even a fairly reasonable Republican DOJ, would continue to enforce such a policy.

Even then they're turning away people for admitting to smoking pot. Not, as cabber has mentioned, using an OCS charge on a credit card to deny entry.

The power they have is to search financial records without a warrant for non-residence, and that is only if your banking institution keeps any sort of records on American soil. 

I'm not sure which, if any of our Canadian banks keep CC transaction info stored on servers in the US.

So if you have American citizenship, they couldn't search your financial records without a warrant. If you own stock in a company that has anything to do with cannabis, they can refuse you entry into the US. 

I haven't actually heard if any of this is for real or not, might just be scare tactics. 
 
Don't know if we have any Michiganders here but congrats on joining the legalized Marijuana bandwagon.

Tough luck, North Dakota.
