// Definition
The transition in Canadian cannabis law from the Marihuana Medical Purpose Regulations (MMPR) licensed producer system toward full legalization under the Trudeau government, with Bill Blair leading the task force. A contentious process that threatened to exclude existing medical growers.
// From the Episode
Discussion about how the MMPR system created licensed producers that marginalized grassroots compassion clubs and medical growers. Bill Blair, former Toronto police chief, was put in charge of the legalization framework, which the panel found deeply problematic. The federal program was seen as unrecognizable from what patients needed.
