    Cannabis promotion

    With the passing of the Cannabis Act, the promotion of cannabis in Canada will be legal under the following guidelines.

    Who can promote

    A licensed seller can inform about or promote their business or product, provided they follow the specifications outlined in the Cannabis Act and the acceptable distribution services. A person or organization that’s authorized to produce, sell or distribute cannabis in Canada qualifies as a licensed seller.
