The idea is somewhat similar.
These are two amendments to clause 73, on pages 60 and 61 of the bill.
The first part of the amendment refers to the new section entitled “Imposition and Payment of Duty on Cannabis”. The wording reads as follows: “Duty is imposed on cannabis products produced in Canada...[...]”. The purpose of the amendment is to specify once again that that duty applies to products “other than prescription cannabis drugs”. In fact, this refers to the bill's original definition, which has just been adopted by the members of the committee. The amended wording would thus read: “Duty is imposed on cannabis products produced in Canada, other than prescription cannabis drugs, at the time they are packaged in the [...]”.
The other part of the amendment aims to introduce a similar change, by replacing line 27 on page 61, in the part entitled “Duty on imported cannabis”. The amendment would add “other than prescription cannabis drugs”, regarding the imposition of duty on cannabis.
So this is similar to what was discussed earlier. The purpose is to exempt prescription cannabis from duty imposed on cannabis.
