On October 17, 2018, the Government of Canada legalized and strictly regulated the production, distribution, sale, import, export, and possession of cannabis for adults of legal age. This act of legalization has created an uproar around the world and brought new perspectives into the recreational cannabis space. It has been a rocky but exciting few years since legalization, with most conversations highlighting the differences between recreational cannabis regulations in Canada and the United States and the hope that someday cannabis could be sold across borders.
