Cannabis legalization in Canada

Cannabis legalization in Canada means that adults aged 18 or 19+ (depending on the province) can legally buy, possess, and use cannabis for recreational purposes. The government regulates its production, sale, and distribution to ensure safety and quality. Personal possession limits apply, and public consumption is restricted in many areas. The goal is to reduce illegal market activity, improve public health, and prevent youth access, while respecting individual rights. Overall, legalization provides a controlled, legal framework that balances personal freedom with public safety.
