In April 2017, the Canadian government announced new legislation to legalize cannabis for recreational use. On October 17th, 2018, the country became the first in the G7 and the second country in the world to fully legalize the cannabis.

Canada’s legal cannabis market is the second largest in the world, consistently accounting for a little over 10% of the global expenditure on cannabis. Statistics Canada data shows that recreational cannabis sales have grown rapidly since recreational cannabis was legalized in 2018, more than doubling from C$1,186 million in 2019 to C$2,625 million in 2020 and continuing to grow to exceed C$5 billion in 2023 and C$5.6 billion in 2025. Canada is a major exporter of medical cannabis with C$350+ million worth of medical cannabis products exported in the 2024-25 fiscal year.
