Today, recreational cannabis is a controlled substance in Manitoba, with a hybrid retail and distribution model wherein it is provincially-controlled but sold by private retail outlets. The regulation of cannabis in Manitoba is the responsibility of the Liquor, Gaming and Cannabis Authority of Manitoba (LGCA), who is the sole licenser of retail cannabis stores and distributors in the province.[1][2]
The minimum age is 19; cannabis must not be smoked or vaped in public; home growing is not legal; and individuals may carry up to 30 grams (1.1 oz) of cannabis while in public.[3][4]
