The Great Weed North: Canadian Cannabis Meet Up

Please be aware that cannabis and related laws vary. Programming in this track is designed to inform attendees about this fast-changing industry, and does not promote the use or sale of illegal drugs.

Canada was the first G7 country to legalize adult-use cannabis at the federal level. The end of prohibition and the ensuing regulatory certainty resulted in the country becoming the de-facto cannabis capital of the world. This meet up will discuss the basics of the domestic market, key insights into where it’s headed, and why Canada needs to start promoting its homegrown industry. As well, this meet up will also connect individuals in the Canadian cannabis industry and those interested in entering the market.
