New North Mayors gathering sparks discussion about cannabis
Mayors from the northern regions of Saskatchewan are gathered in Prince Albert for their fall meeting, and one panel about cannabis sparked discussions.
The topic was broached during a discussion panel about next year’s planned legalization of recreational pot.
The panel about cannabis was hosted by Moliehi Kahketla, a medical officer within the Population Health Unit and Steve Dribnenki, the senior policy advisor for the Saskatchewan Urban Municipalities Association (SUMA).
Kahketla provided an overview of the public health aspect within the legalization of cannabis while Dribnenki provided a “lay of the land” when it comes to the legal side of recreational marijuana.
