The New Brunswick government will impose strict limits on cannabis use in the province when the drug becomes legal next July. "The health and wellness of all New Brunswickers is the government's top priority," said Health Minister Benoît Bourque. The government will also amend the Motor Vehicle Act to create a three-step test for drivers who are impaired by cannabis use. Landry would not say what legal advice the province had from lawyers in the attorney-general's office about the enforceability of the new law. Dr. Jennifer Russell, acting chief medical officer of health, hopes marijuana use among young people will decline with legalization.
