Cannabis curious? Jonesing for your first legal joint? Either way, get ready to roll: the Senate has passed Bill C-45, the government's legislation to legalize marijuana.

Bill C-45 largely leaves it up to the provinces and territories to determine how marijuana can be sold and used. Below, we take a look at the current state of these pot policies.

Some things to consider:

Ontario, Newfoundland and Labrador, New Brunswick, Alberta and Yukon have passed marijuana laws. The remaining provinces and territories are in various stages of completing theirs, so much of the below information is subject to change. In every province and territory, the federally-mandated public possession limit of 30 grams of dried cannabis has been maintained, though some provinces, like Quebec and Alberta, will permit you to keep more at home.

With the exception of Manitoba, all jurisdictions have opted to keep their legal dope-smoking ages in line with those for drinking alcohol.

Bill C-45 allows individuals to grow up to four marijuana plants per residence, though some provinces, like Manitoba, Nunavut and Quebec, plan to ban home cultivation.

Provincial and territorial plans vary widely on whether you’ll be able to smoke in public.

Provinces and territories also differ on whether pot shops will be publicly or privately owned. For those opting for publicly-owned stores, these will be operated by provincial Crown corporations that sell liquor. In some cases, provinces have even created subsidiaries of these companies with names like CannabisNB and the Ontario Cannabis Retail Corporation. Unless otherwise noted, these will be standalone stores wholly separate from those that sell alcohol.

After our jurisdictional breakdown, keep reading. We’ll also attempt to peer through the haze at the biggest issues still facing marijuana legalization: namely, testing drivers for impairment, weed in the workplace, smoking in rental properties and the availability of edible products.

Other issues to consider:

IMPAIRED DRIVING

WEED AT WORK

Employers have expressed concern that marijuana legalization will lead to impairment, lower productivity, poor attendance and safety issues in the workplace.

An even bigger grey area is whether employers will legally be able to test, discipline or even fire workers for using a substance that is legal.

Business groups are hoping that provincial legislation clarifies both employer and employee rights regarding marijuana. In some provinces, this may include developing new regulations, education and training initiatives.

REEFER IN RENTALS

Under marijuana legalization laws in various provinces and territories, landlords will be able to restrict cannabis use on their properties.

Landlords are also concerned about tenants growing marijuana, which could lead to increased electricity usage and the spread of damaging mould.

Real estate lawyers are currently looking to tobacco-smoking rules for guidance. While landlords cannot retroactively prohibit smoking tobacco in rental units, they can include such restrictions in new leases. It is unclear if such existing restrictions will be applicable to marijuana once it becomes legal. Landlords are also currently able to take action on cigarette smoking if migrating smoke bothers others in a property. Court rulings regarding such cases, however, have been inconsistent.

B.C., Saskatchewan, Yukon, Nunavut, the Northwest Territories and Nova Scotia have all introduced or passed legislation that would allow landlords to ban using marijuana on their properties. Only time will tell if courts will offer landlords those same rights in other jurisdictions.
