Quarry Park Law presents at Calgary HempFest

By | October 5, 2017

Quarry Park Law presented at Calgary HempFest last weekend discussing Bill C-45/C-46 and some of the legal nuances surrounding the proposed legislation the weekend before Alberta announced its proposed provincial cannabis framework.

The presentation by QPL lawyers Alexander Kooiman and Jonathan Ablett was well attended and generated a number of discussions.  Presentation attendees voiced a variety of opinions, questions and concerns surrounding the proposed cannabis law including medical and recreational access and distribution, announced and upcoming provincial frameworks, municipal bylaws and business licensing, new federal criminal restrictions and penalties under Bill C-45, availability of cannabis edibles, real estate and rental contract questions and federal and provincial framework restrictions.

Quarry Park Law presenter Alexander Kooiman was interviewed afterwards by the CBC regarding the legal aspects of Bill C-45 and the upcoming provincial cannabis framework for Alberta.

This is the third time I've used Jonathan Ablett for buying or selling a house. The first time was three and a half years ago, then this past month he helped with the home we sold and then the house we just bought. He is very professional, makes an effort to have a flexible schedule, always works in your best interest, and will answer every question you have. I recommend him to anyone requiring a lawyer for property reasons.

I wish to acknowledge the professionalism, and support that we have received from Alya Nazarali.  Alya was there to educate and advise us each step of the way in our legal matters.  I appreciated the way Alya took the time to understand our situation and built our case by negotiating, and mediating positively on my behalf with a purpose to continually move progress forward.  I recommend Alya and Quarry Park Law to anyone seeking fair and professional legal representation with family law matters.
