Canada Post is in hot water as Mail revenue decreases 5% yearly; the Crown Corporation is seeking new sources of revenue. As always, the federal government as a whole is also looking for revenue as the economy slows. One such revenue source could be the ever-expanding venture of mail order marijuana.

The mail order marijuana market has been valued at as much as $7 billion dollars per year. As marijuana becomes more legalized, this revenue will be taxed, therefore producing even more value for the federal government. The government has speculated this new tax revenue could be used as funding for addiction treatment and education.

The Canada Post will likely be the key distributor of mail order marijuana once it is completely legalized. Canada Post already has a page set up detailing how to send marijuana through the mail for those using it with a license. The page is quite detailed, citing how one should not label packages indicating what is inside, as well as keep said packages vacuum sealed.

Some representatives argue that a system for Sending Legalized Marijuana could take years to construct. However, a mail order system for wine delivery where age is verified by the recipient is already in place. It has been suggested this system can be used for age and identity verification when sending legalized marijuana.

Regardless, Canada Post should start working on a mail order marijuana-friendly system soon. Complete legalization of this substance is just around the corner; it is only a matter of when this legalization will take place.
