Imports and Exports
  • Provisions for importation and exportation (if
    necessary permits are obtained and specific
    requirements fulfilled)
  • Health Canada published guidance expresses a lack
    of support for facilitating a regime to service
    global demand
  • Very limited circumstances, such as, importing
    starting materials or exporting a unique strain
    for scientific investigation in a foreign
    laboratory
  • Despite this guidance, there are several recent
    examples of Canadian LPs that have obtained
    export permits
