Prince Edward Island has closed its online consultation as it prepares to implement Canada’s Cannabis Act in 2018. Under the federal cannabis laws, each province has certain areas of responsibilities and may strengthen the federal laws within the province.

The details of Prince Edward Island’s cannabis laws have yet to be fully determined and announced. Prince Edward Island’s cannabis approach focuses on: protecting public health and safety in regard to cannabis, keeping cannabis out of the hands of children and youth, and limiting the cannabis illegal market.

There will be no provisions for public consumption of cannabis in Prince Edward Island at this point, and the minimum age has been set to 19. Cannabis will be sold via government-owned PEI Liquor Commission retail stores; however, it will not be sold alongside alcohol.
