Prince Edward Island

Legal age to buy cannabis: 19

Estimated Price: Unknown

Public Smoking: Illegal

There will be four government-run dispensaries once cannabis is legal in Prince Edward Island. They will be located in West Prince, Montague, Summerside and Charlottetown. Online ordering and delivery will also be an option per these marijuana laws in Canada.

Lawmakers in Prince Edward Island are fighting against normalizing marijuana despite marijuana laws in Canada guaranteeing its legality nation-wide. This means restricting smoking to private residences. There will be no limit on how much marijuana you can have at home, but the 30-gram maximum still applies for public possession.

Prince Edward Island government officials have yet to fully flush out cannabis regulation. So far, they are still in the process of updating driving laws and developing public health education initiatives.
