The 2020 Canadian Cannabis Survey provides a snapshot of Canadians’ knowledge, attitudes and behaviours related to cannabis.
OTTAWA, ON, December 21, 2020/CNW/ – The Government of Canada has taken a public health approach to cannabis legalization and regulation, which includes collecting data on an ongoing basis to better understand how Canadians view and use cannabis. On October 17, 2018, the Cannabis Act came into force, providing a strict national framework for controlling the production, distribution, sale and possession of cannabis in Canada.
Today, Health Canada published the results of its 2020 Canadian Cannabis Survey. The survey results provide a snapshot of Canadians’ knowledge, attitudes and behaviours towards cannabis and its use. The data were collected from April 30 to June 22, 2020.
The survey results will help evaluate the impact of the Cannabis Act and inform policy and program development, and public education and awareness activities. This critical research complements data collected through Health Canada’s national drug surveillance surveys—the Canadian Tobacco, Alcohol and Drugs Survey and the Canadian Student Tobacco, Alcohol and Drugs Survey.
Key findings show that:
- More than half of those who use cannabis report using it three days a month or less. 54% reported using cannabis three days per month or less, while 18% reported daily cannabis use. Responses were unchanged from 2019.
- More than half of those who use cannabis choose to obtain it through a legal source. 41% reported legal storefront as their usual source, increasing from 24% in 2019, whereas 13% reported getting cannabis from a legal online source.
- The COVID-19 pandemic has had some impacts on cannabis use. People who used cannabis in the past 12 months were asked if their cannabis use had changed due to the pandemic—56% reported using the same amount, while 22% reported using more and 22% said using less.
- Smoking remains the most common method of consuming cannabis, but it has declined while eating cannabis products has increased since 2019.
- Almost 8 in 10 Canadians feel they have access to trustworthy information to make informed decisions about their cannabis use, increasing from 71% in 2019 to 77% in 2020.
- Driving after cannabis use has decreased among those who reported past 12-month cannabis use compared to 2019 results. 22% of those who use cannabis went within two hours of smoking or vaporizing cannabis in their lifetime, and 13% reported driving within four hours of orally ingesting cannabis in their lifetime.
The federal government will continue to conduct research and share the results with Canadians, public health officials, provinces and territories, and other stakeholders.
