With the legalization of cannabis being the hot topic right now, one discussion needed is proper training of cannabis in the workplace. Our new Cannabis in the Workplace training course is now available.

Cannabis Legalization

Recreational cannabis has been made legal as of October 17, 2018, by the Canadian government. Ontario has laws in place about who can buy and possess cannabis in the province, as well as where they can buy it. The Canadian government is going ahead with a regulated private retail model for cannabis that would launch by April 1, 2019.

You must be 19 and older to buy, use, possess and grow recreational cannabis. For more details on where you can use cannabis and where to buy, Ontario.ca has details.
