Recent Trends in Psychedelics and the Law

Presented by the CBA Alberta Health Law South Section

On Demand. Originally presented on October 12, 2023.

This presentation will explore the current regulatory and policy framework in Canada around controlled drugs and substances, with a focus on psilocybin and psychedelics more generally. It will also discuss the maturation of the industry evidenced by Health Canada’s decisions to allow access to psilocybin through exemptions, expansion of the special access program to include restricted drugs, and diminished enforcement priority on simple possession of all controlled substances by the Public Prosecution Service of Canada.

SPEAKER

David Wood (Principal, R-Group Consulting Inc.)
