With the medical use of cannabis well established and as the first G7 country to federally legalize recreational use, Canada is poised to become a leader in the global cannabis market. This course introduces students to the continually changing international cannabis landscape and its implications to Canadian companies for legally importing and exporting the product.

This course will consider the potential scope of opportunity in international cannabis trade. In addition, the implications of multinational treaties on importing and exporting cannabis will be examined.
