Aaron Sonshine comments in Cannabis Wire on the one year anniversary of cannabis legalization in Canada—and the new federal regulations for edibles and concentrates that also go into effect.

“It’s very much a safety-first protocol in Canada,” Aaron Sonshine, a partner at Bennett Jones, a Canadian law company that works closely with cannabis businesses in Canada and the United States, told Cannabis Wire. 

“But I think from a regulatory standpoint, there will be challenges,” Sonshine continued, noting that there remain unknowns about “next generation products,” such as vapes. As the cannabis market in Canada plans to roll out such products, it “is likely to attract regulatory scrutiny.”
