Since Canada’s legalization of cannabis five years ago, researchers say the policy has had mixed results in terms of public health and justice reform.

    This doesn’t sound like mixed results. Get rid of the kid friendly packaging and you’ll lower the overdoses with kids. I’d like to see if alcohol consumption changed during this period.

        I think colourful gummies are the kid friendly packaging.

        Kids love candy, kids will always go through their parents stuff, ergo making it look like candy is a recipe for it getting eaten by kids.

        I’m not really into cannabis but I’d rather take a pill for a specific dosage than eat a gummy.

          In my province they’re sold in generic child proof ziplocks. Black market ones totally look like regular candy though.

          Oh come on, I shouldn’t have to eat an edible that doesn’t look like a pile of mush. People should be more responsible with storage and teach their kids better.
