The P.E.I. government is one step closer to developing cannabis legislation, following the end of a public and stakeholder survey that sought input from Islanders about the legalization of marijuana.
The public survey was launched in August and closed at the end of September and asked about things such as legal age, where to sell it, use in public and at-home grow ops.

The province says it received about 3,000 responses.
The province's webpage devoted to cannabis legislation shows the province will focus on:
-Limiting the illegal market for cannabis.
-Keeping cannabis out of the hands of children and youth.
-Protecting public health.
-Promoting safety on roads, in workplaces and in public spaces.
