CALGARY—Calgary police are taking a strict approach to cannabis consumption, and will entirely ban officers from using recreational cannabis after legalization. Darren Leggatt is in charge of the Calgary Police Service’s cannabis legalization project. Leggatt, who leads the Calgary Police Service cannabis legalization project, said that because there isn’t enough research on how a body metabolizes cannabis and how long impairment can last, the service is proceeding with caution. Police work is one of the professions that’s considered a “safety-sensitive workplace,” making cannabis legalization a tricky issue.
