The legal and political landscape around herbal medicine is always evolving, and staying informed is essential for practitioners, growers, and makers. This session will provide updates on regulations, policy shifts, and advocacy efforts within Canada, with discussion of broader issues including tariffs, and cross-border challenges like shipping to the USA that may affect our work. Panelists will share current challenges, successes, and opportunities, and explore how we can build resilience and protect access to herbal medicine together.
