The place of cannabis marijuana in the lives of Canadians will undergo a radical change with its legalization and entry into the mainstream. This transformation will affect Canada's legal landscape. The new status of cannabis will have profound implications in many areas of practice.
This half-day module focuses on two areas of regulation: cannabis as a drug and the effect of cannabis on individuals.
In "Cannabis as Medicine", you will examine the evolution of cannabis marijuana from a controlled drug to a regulated health care product, as well as the current issues in discourse surrounding medical cannabis.
In "Cannabis and Impairment", you will explore the twin issues of regulation and measurement of potential impairment caused by cannabis in both the criminal law and employment law contexts.
