2) Legalization and Regulation of Cannabis
3) Liquor and Gaming Authority of Manitoba
"In late 2017, the Province of Manitoba announced that the mandate of the LGA will expand. Bill 11: The Safe and Responsible Retailing of Cannabis Act, which amends The Liquor and Gaming Control Act and The Manitoba Liquor and Lotteries Corporation Act to authorize and regulate the retail sale of cannabis in Manitoba was tabled on December 5th."
4) Although an American paper, the National Bureau of Economic Research on alcohol prohibition may provide perspective of Canada's lifting of prohibition of cannabis.
"We estimate the consumption of alcohol during Prohibition using mortality, mental health and crime statistics. We find that alcohol consumption fell sharply at the beginning of Prohibition, to approximately 30 percent of its pre-Prohibition level. During the next several years, however, alcohol consumption increased sharply, to about 60-70 percent of its pre-prohibition level. The level of consumption was virtually the same immediately after Prohibition as during the latter part of Prohibition, although consumption increased to approximately its pre-Prohibition level during the subsequent decade."
