With the legalization of marijuana later this year, Parkland Hemp Producers are waiting for regulation changes of their own.
Industrial hemp is regulated more than the typical crop grown around our area.
Russ Crawford, President of the Canadian Hemp Trade Alliance, says their recommendations to government are being heard.
“I think we’ve already seen indications from the government on their proposed regulations, we’re very encouraged by the limited change, and in fact, a more liberal approach to industrial hemp will see less regulation.”
Crawford looks for the day when hemp is monitored by Ag Canada instead of Health Canada.
