Regulatory report: where can cannabis and CBD be bought in Canada?

Written by Pablo Cano Trilla || 6th November 2020 || Regulatory reports | Regulation and legislation | Geographies Canada North America

The Cannabis Act, section 19 (Selling) establishes that there is no free market to sell recreational cannabis and its by-products – including CBD extracted from hemp – in Canada. It is necessary to seek governmental approval. However, it is not the central government that has the competence to allow companies to become cannabis retailers, but the provincial authorities. This report provides an overview of the individual provincial regulations.
