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. If you are interested in this process or have comments on this notice, please contact the Regulatory Policy Division, Office of Policy and Strategic Planning, Controlled Substances and Tobacco Directorate, Healthy Environments and Consumer Safety Branch, Health Canada by mail at Address Locator 0302A, 150 Tunney’s Pasture Driveway, Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0K9, or by email at ocs_regulatorypolicy-bsc_ politiquereglementaire@hc-sc.gc.ca.

There were no written representations from affected parties to the screening officer with respect to any of the above-mentioned claims for exemption and related MSDSs or labels.

Each of the claims for exemption listed above was found to be valid, except for Registry Number 8675 which was found to be partially valid, and Registry Numbers 8277 and 8838 which were found to be invalid. The screening officer reached this decision after reviewing the information in support of the claim, having regard exclusively to the criteria found in section 3 of the Hazardous Materials Information Review Regulations.

With regard to the various data readily available in the literature and any information provided by the claimant, the screening officer found that the respective MSDSs in respect of the claims bearing Registry Numbers 8526, 8670, 8770, 8821, 8832, 8849, 8876, 8890, 8891, 8906, 8936, 8991 and 8997 complied with the applicable requirements of the Hazardous Products Act and the Controlled Products Regulations.

In the case of the claims bearing Registry Numbers 8677, 8678, 8679 and 8680, being claims from an employer with operations in the province of Alberta, the screening officer found that the MSDSs and labels in respect of which the claims were filed did not comply with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Occupational Health and Safety Code 2009 of the Province of Alberta.

In the case of the claim bearing Registry Number 8716, being a claim from an employer with operations in the province of Ontario, the screening officer found that the MSDS in respect of which the claim was filed did not comply with the applicable disclosure requirements of the Occupational Health and Safety Act of the Province of Ontario.

In all cases where the MSDS or the label was determined not to be in compliance with the relevant legislation, the screening officer offered the claimant the possibility of entering into an undertaking whereby the claimant would voluntarily make the changes necessary to bring the MSDS or the label into compliance. Pursuant to subsection 16.1(1) of the Hazardous Materials Information Review Act, the claimant was given 30 days to provide the screening officer with a signed undertaking accompanied by the MSDS or the label amended as necessary.

In the case of the following claims, the claimant supplied the screening officer with a signed undertaking accompanied by the MSDS or label amended as necessary within the time frame specified. The screening officer was satisfied that the claimant had taken the measures set out in the undertaking in the manner and within the period specified therein.
