A Canadian Senate committee recommends a legal cannabis market

The Special Senate Committee on Illegal Drugs publicly released its final cannabis report after a two-year study. It recommended a licensed exemption scheme for production and sales, an amnesty for possession convictions, and wider medical access. These were committee recommendations, not enacted legalisation; the entry uses the public release date.[1]
