Cannabis Legalization and Regulation: What to Expect in Canada and British Columbia

June 20, 2017

Bennett Jones and Global Public Affairs held a panel discussion and Q&A in Vancouver on cannabis legalization and regulation, with some of the most knowledgeable and insightful Canadians in this area. Topics that were addressed included:

  • what's next in the legislative process given the current status of the Cannabis Act
  • how provinces could approach legalization
  • the ability of the cannabis industry to supply the anticipated demand
  • the size of companies from licensed producers to micro or craft growers
  • Canada’s international obligations and inter-provincial matters

Stakeholders came from a wide range of sectors—including cannabis cultivation, financial services, government, consulting, bioscience and medical cannabis dispensaries.
