Working in the legal cannabis industry in Canada

As of October 17, 2018, cannabis is legal in Canada.

To apply to positions in the legal cannabis industry, you must be legally eligible to work for a Government of Canada authorized licensed producer of cannabis based on federal and provincial industry legislation.

Accepting employment in the legal cannabis industry in Canada could impact your entry to other countries. Traveling to another country for reasons related to the cannabis industry may deem you inadmissible now and in the future.

Previous use of cannabis, or any other substance prohibited by local law, could also result in you being denied entry to your destination country. You are responsible for learning about the laws of the countries you intend to visit.
