Canada is set to become the first G7 country to legalize cannabis after
lawmakers on Monday passed a bill that would allow free consumption of the
mind-altering plant.
Passed by 205 votes to 82 in the House of Commons, the legislation must still
pass the Senate — which could delay, but not block it — and receive royal
assent by the governor general before becoming law, likely by September.
Legalizing weed was a 2015 campaign promise of Canadian Prime Minister Justin
Trudeau, who has acknowledged smoking a joint with friends “five or six
times,” including since being elected as a lawmaker.
The Liberal government’s pointman on the pot file, Bill Blair, on Sunday
said it was “probably looking at a date of implementation somewhere toward
the beginning of September, perhaps mid-September.”
Uruguay approved the recreational usage of marijuana five years ago and nine
US states and Washington have done so too, but Canada would be the first G7
country to take the step.
An initial target of July 1 was set for ending the pot prohibition that dates
back to 1923, although it was effectively legalized for medical use nearly
two decades ago.
Despite setbacks, Trudeau has insisted his government would move to legalize
the production, sale and consumption of the psychoactive drug before facing
the electorate again next year.
Last week, the government rejected 13 out of 46 amendments to the bill
proposed by the Senate after several months of study, with Trudeau’s health
minister rising to defend home cultivation of cannabis and branded pot swag.
“Canadians are allowed to make beer at home, or wine,” Canadian Minister of
Health Ginette Petitpas Taylor said at the time.
“It is already possible for Canadians to grow cannabis for medical purposes
and we absolutely believe the legislation should be consistent when it comes
to recreational cannabis,” she said.
The government would follow its expert panel’s recommendation to allow
at-home cultivation of up to four pot plants for personal use, she said.
As for the proposed advertising restrictions, the bill already contains
limits such as a requirement for plain packaging, she said.
Once the law is enacted, Canadians over the age of 18 (19 in some regions)
would be able to buy 1g of pot for about C$10 (US$7.56) or less, from a
patchwork of authorized private and public retail stores or by mail order,
with each province and territory responsible for setting up distribution.
Personal possession would be limited to 30g.
