“Clarification” of Border Crossing Rules Raises More Questions for Canadian Cannabis Industry

 

Border crossers may be at risk.

Clarification was recently presented by the U.S. CBP regarding the allowance of Canadians that are employed in Canada’s legal cannabis industry into the United States. While the clarification says that those Canadians that want to enter the U.S. for non-work-related reasons may enter without negative consequences. However, since that clarification was released there have been many individuals turned away at the border. This white paper reviews the statement of clarification and the customs and border protection involvement.
