LAWG-0094

The legislative landscape for cannabis production and use in Canada is continuing to evolve. Upon completing this course, students will be able to locate and interpret current legislation relating to the medical and adult-use markets. Students will apply this knowledge to concepts of production, promotion, packaging, and the sale of cannabis within the framework of maintaining full compliance, as well as to personal use and potential implications.

In addition to regulatory concerns, students will also discuss and debate important ethical considerations relating to the legalization of cannabis, including use by minors, medicinal claims, pardoning past criminal records and more.
