CONTROLLED DRUGS AND SUBSTANCES ACT
Notice to interested parties — Proposed order amending Schedule II to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act and regulations amending the Schedule to the Narcotic Control Regulations with respect to synthetic cannabinoids
This notice provides interested stakeholders with the opportunity to provide comments on Health Canada’s intent to pursue amendments to Schedule II to the Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) and to the Schedule to the Narcotic Control Regulations (NCR) to make more explicit the controlled status of synthetic cannabinoids in order to facilitate efforts to protect the health and safety of Canadians from the risks posed by the trafficking and abuse of these substances.
Synthetic cannabinoids are a rapidly emerging class of new psychoactive substances. These substances are often mixed with dried plant materials, marketed under a variety of brand names and labelled as “legal alternatives” to cannabis. Some synthetic cannabinoids possess pharmacological properties similar to those of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the major psychoactive component of cannabis. Such psychoactive activity is the result of these synthetic cannabinoids binding to and activating cannabinoid receptors in the brain, referred to as their agonist effects. The chemical structures of these synthetic cannabinoids can be either similar or unrelated to that of THC.
Since the initial detection of psychoactive synthetic cannabinoids in herbal blends in 2004, such products have achieved widespread distribution worldwide, thereby creating significant risks to health and safety. Globally, close to 400 such synthetic cannabinoids have been identified thus far, which are developed and manufactured for illicit purposes.
These synthetic cannabinoids are not controlled under the United Nations Convention on Psychotropic Substances, 1971 to which Canada is a signatory. Nevertheless, some of these synthetic cannabinoids are controlled under national legislation in countries such as the United Kingdom, Ireland, New Zealand and the United States.
In Canada, the CDSA and its regulations provide a legislative framework for the control of substances that can alter mental processes and that may present a risk to public health and safety when diverted or misused. Currently, the heading of Item 1 of Schedule II to the CDSA and Item 17 of the Schedule to the NCR captures “Cannabis, its preparations, derivatives and similar synthetic preparations.” While synthetic cannabinoids are not expressly listed in these schedules, these substances are controlled under the term “similar synthetic preparations.”
Nevertheless, considering the growing importance of psychoactive synthetic cannabinoids in illicit drug production, Health Canada has determined that further specificity with respect to these synthetic cannabinoids in Schedule II to the CDSA and the Schedule to the NCR would facilitate the administration and enforcement of the CDSA and its regulations.
Health Canada is proposing to amend Schedule II to the CDSA and the Schedule to the NCR by replacing the terms “similar synthetic preparations” by a new entry that would specify that these synthetic cannabinoids, as well as their salts, derivatives and isomers, should read as cannabinoid receptor type I agonists. In the interest of clarity, a list of specific classes of known core chemical structures of these synthetic cannabinoids would also be included.
The publication of this notice in the Canada Gazette, Part I, initiates a 30-day comment period.
