The provincial government is seeking public input on new marijuana legislation set to come into effect in little over a year.
Justice Minister Andrew Parsons says government has launched a website to allow people to have their say on what they’d like to see.
He says questions include age restrictions, where it should be sold, and what other restrictions are necessary once the use of marijuana is legalized.
