Planting the seeds for competition : Competition Bureau submission to Health Canada and the Expert Panel to support the Cannabis Act legislative review.: Iu54-123/2023E-PDF

"This report explores the competitive dynamics of Canada's cannabis industry, investigates potential barriers to competition, innovation and choice, and makes recommendations to enhance competition and support a more competitive legal industry. The Competition Bureau undertook its study of the cannabis industry to support the goals of Health Canada's legislative review of the Cannabis Act. Although cannabis industry regulation is a shared responsibility of federal, provincial, and territorial governments, the focus of the legislative review is on matters within federal jurisdiction, specifically those under the remit of the Minister of Health and the Minister of Mental Health and Addictions. As such, other federal matters (e.g., excise duties), as well as issues that fall under provincial and territorial oversight (e.g., cannabis distribution and retail sale), are outside the scope of the legislative review"--Executive summary, page 6.
