Abstract
Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug globally, and Canada has among the highest use rates.1 In 2014, 10% to 15% of general-population adults and 25% to 30% of adolescents or young adults report current (i.e., past-year) cannabis use.2 Arguably, the legalization of cannabis in Canada can be regarded as one of the most significant public health policy changes in the last 50 years. The stated aim of legalization of cannabis was to protect youth and eliminate the criminal element from the cannabis industry, and it has been challenging, as the government attempts to navigate the creation a new industry that can compete with the well-established illicit market.
