Cannabis-based products to become legal in Canada from October

From October, Canadian companies will be able to market products based on cannabis. Indeed, companies are already well on their way to developing a range of new products that is likely to include edibles (like chocolates), as well as other kinds of drinks, snacks and oils.

Even cannabis beer is being trialled. This would be made from cannabis stalks, stems, and seeds. In recent times, medical research has indicated a range of benefits to be accrued to using CBD – a component of cannabis which can be used to treat symptoms ranging from epilepsy to anxiety.
