Saskatchewan and Manitoba are the only jurisdictions that aren't going to have online sales monopolized by the government. It's just a cash grab. Governments need new revenues and they can control the price this way.

Toronto's chief of police Mark Saunders has said, and i quote, "the service has highly trained officers who can deal with drivers impaired by pot."

Now, i must question... are these the same highly trained officers who deal with distracted drivers? How is that working out?

My belief... Police only respond to crime, they do NOT prevent crime and they very seldom solve it.

I thought ID was required at delivery. If no ID, the package is then returned and purchase refunded.
Thought I read that somewhere, I'll look for it..

Here is a section from Global News:

Cannabis packages will be unmarked, and the Canada Post agent who does the delivery will be alerted to ask for ID upon drop-off.

If the person who purchased the product is not home, packages will not be left in mailboxes or at the door. Holmen said if someone over the age of 18 is home, they will be able to accept the delivery even if they’re not the original purchaser.

If no one is home who can accept the package, a notice will be left for the person to go to their nearest Canada Post centre to pick up their pot. ID will be requested upon pickup, Holmen explained.

“When the package arrives it’s unmarked so it does not have any branding that says it’s a cannabis product that’s been ordered online, so it’s very much kept in confidence,” she said.

“But the courier is cued to check for age verification and also to make sure it’s going into the hands of the person that purchased it.”

Canada Post requires a signature, not ID, if you are home to sign. If Canada Post cards you whereby you have to go to the post office for your package, ID is required but only to prove itś you picking up the package to whom it is addressed to. Age is not relevant - for packages.

Further to Kiddś post, police have the tools including the ability to campare pupil size to predetermined stoned eyes, amongst other tools in their arsenal ...

Age is not relevant when receiving or picking up parcels the sender has not purchased the Proof of Age option for.

If the sender has purchased the Proof of Age option, the Canada Post will ask the receiver to provide government photo ID to confirm legal age, if the receiver appears to be under 25.
