Competition Bureau recommends changing THC limits for edibles, easing cannabis packaging restrictions

It says adjusting tetrahydrocannabinol limits would allow pot producers to better meet consumer demand and compete with the illicit market.

It adds easing restrictions on cannabis promotion, packaging and labelling would give producers more room to innovate and help consumers make more informed purchasing decisions. The Competition Bureau’s recommendations are part of an ongoing review of the Cannabis Act, which set cannabis purchase and possession limits and established safety requirements for growing, selling and transporting the substance.

When legalization legislation came into effect in 2018, it included provisions preventing cannabis products from being packaged in a way that is enticing to youths and limiting THC in edibles to 10 mg per package.
