As P.E.I. considers the rules it will have to put in place around marijuana legalization, Island business leaders and owners are weighing in, hoping to have their voices heard.
The federal government has said it will legalize pot by July 2018, and the provinces will have to come up with their own rules for sales by then.
In order to gauge public opinion on the sale of marijuana, the province has put out an online survey asking for the public's input on several issues.
One of the specific questions being asked is whether marijuana should be sold by private business or publicly through government.
