Recently, Health Canada released draft regulations for the next major phase of cannabis legalization in Canada. Part of that disclosure was an invitation to all parties to submit suggestions and recommendations about improving the regulations and prepare the environment for the legalization of edibles, topicals and other products later this year. The consultation was presented in the form of a dozen questions around the regulations, as part of the industry consultation,
Westleaf Inc. (TSX.V:WL, Forum) was pleased to submit what we see as the key considerations and some recommendations going forward.
Westleaf, like others in the industry, support Health Canada’s overall approach to legalization of cannabis and cannabis infused products, and we support the objectives of the Cannabis Act which is to protect the health of young people; to eliminate the black market; provide a safe product; and increase public awareness of the health risks associated with cannabis use. In short, we support all of these objectives. As we enter the next phase of legalization, scheduled for later this year, we want to ensure that we do so with an eye to what has worked up to now and what can be improved.
