It’s possible Bill C-45, the Cannabis Act, could come up for debate for the first time on Friday, June 2, or in the week following, as both C-45 and C-46 are bills that the government has indicated it wants to make progress on before the summer recess.



While Mr. Blair wouldn’t say whether he thinks this debate could be the next big policy conversation in Canada, he said it’s “a subject that Canadians are going to be thinking and talking about,” and that he’d like moved forward with it soon.

However, NDP House Leader Murray Rankin (Victoria, B.C.) said he views it as the next big conversation.

“It’s a seismic shift in our society. For so long we’ve had prohibition—since the 1920s—and the government’s objective, I think, with the support of most Canadians, is to now no longer have prohibition,” Mr. Rankin said.
