Presentation 

As of July 1, 2018, cannabis possession and consumption will be legal in Canada – immediately impacting all aspects of property and casualty insurance. In this session, we’ll bring you up-to-the-minute information on the changing regulatory and risk landscapes and corresponding potential solutions.

Topics

Exploration of new regulatory landscapes:

  • FEDERAL (production of marijuana) – operation of motor vehicles, heavy equipment and machinery, assessment of the technical aspect
  • PROVINCIAL (sales and distribution of marijuana) – understanding the patchwork rules, what is different provincially vs other jurisdictions
  • MUNICIPAL – applicable by-laws, tax implications

Review of the risks associated with possession and use of cannabis in the following contexts:

  • Automobile liability – the coverage implications of legislation, state of technology for testing, roadside test pilot, new drug impaired offences
  • Social and commercial host liability – cannabis-related impairment, development of common law negligence
  • Condominium management and directors duties – rules and responsibilities, how to balance rights of the individual vs the condo
