Cannabis Act (S.C. 2018, c. 16)

A licence under the Cannabis Regulations is required to manufacture all cannabis products – even if they do not contain THC.

• This includes most products derived from industrial hemp, including CBD, but excludes products derived from non-viable grains of industrial hemp, provided they contain no more than 10 micrograms per gram (10 ppm) THC.

• Those selling cosmetic products with cannabis grain derivatives that are exempt from the application of the Cannabis Act under the Industrial Hemp Regulations (IHR) should be aware of the IHR requirements.
