Document Summary
Government of canada will be undertaking a broad public education campaign to inform canadians of all ages about the new proposed legislation, including the penalties for providing cannabis to youth, and the risks involved with consuming cannabis. This public education campaign will be focused on helping young canadians make the best choices about their future and to understand the risks and consequences of, for example, driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The government will also direct funding through budget 2017 of . 6 million to public education and awareness to inform canadians, particularly young people, of the risks of cannabis use, as well as surveillance activities. This public education and awareness has already begun, and will be a continuing priority: implementing cannabis legalization and regulation will require action by the provinces, territories and municipalities. Government of canada will continue to engage them in the days and months ahead. They will be vital partners in the proposed regime.
