A federal task force has released its recommendations on how marijuanna should be legalized.

After five months of study, it listed 80 recommendations…key among them that the age limit to buy recreational pot by 18. It also recommends a 30 gram per person limit and four plants for those that grow their own. It also says places selling grass should not be involved with alcohol.

The Trudeau Government is reviewing three issues which were left out of the bill to allow assisted dying.

Critics say the law should include those people who have a strictly mental illness, so-called mature minors and people who want to make a request in advance. The Council of Canadian Academies will review each of those issues independently.
