Good rules can still need correction
Bill 208 would come into force one year after Royal Assent. A proportionate bill should also say what Alberta will do if the evidence shows unintended effects.
The exit-ramp model
- Set youth-access and illegal-supply indicators before implementation.
- Publish results by region.
- Review the rule if legal access falls but illegal availability does not.
- Report to the Legislature before making the restriction permanent in practice.
Why this is not delay
The Economic Future committee page shows Bill 208 is already in a review process. Asking for a measurable exit ramp is a practical way to make that review useful.
