Cannabis Review : Very Positive . “This review can be helpful in examining how successful the legislation and the measures taken to implement it have been in fulfilling its public health and public safety goals, and in enabling the establishment of a diverse and competitive cannabis industry.” George Smitherman, president and CEO of the Cannabis Council of Canada, said he’s pleased to see the scope of the review has broadened to include issues that directly impact the industry. “Our primary concern will continue to be a commitment to act urgently on urgent matters, rather than necessarily have a process that goes 18 months in a report-writing phase,” he said.
Omar Khan, senior vice-president of corporate and public affairs at cannabis retailer High Tide, told the National Post it was encouraging to see the review expand its scope, and that the government seems keen on stamping out the illicit market.
