Some provinces are still grappling with how to best ensure the health and safety of Canadians in preparation for the upcoming legalization of recreational cannabis next year.
By July 1, 2018, Canadians across the country will likely be able to smoke marijuana recreationally and legally.
The Trudeau government tabled its marijuana legislation earlier this year with a number of restrictions, including, purchasers must be at least 18 years of age, a maximum of 30 grams can be carried at any time and households can grow up to four plants.

However, each province can independently determine the legal age, as well as how and where legal marijuana may be sold.
The Quebec government is reportedly setting the age limit at 18, while Ontario plans to set theirs at 19 to match the provincial drinking age.
Some health officials and safety advocacy groups say they are concerned about the proposed legislation.
