orphine cr compounds of opium can only be exported to French Indo China, Japan, the United States of America and the Philippine Islands on production of an official certificate that it is required for medical purposes. There would seem to be no restriction on the exportation of cocaine.

J.

Canadian legislation in 1908 (similar to that of Australia) prohibited the importation, manufacture, sale, or possession for sale, or for other than medicinal purposes, of morphine or any salt or derivative thereof, or any preparation containing the same; and made it an indictable offence to manufacture or prepare opium for smoking. By an Act of 1911 the law relating to "drugs" (by which is meant Cocaine, morphine, Ecocaine, and other salts or compounds thereof), is made more stringent.

The importation, manufacture, sale, possession or offering for sale, or traffic in Canada in drugs except for scientific & medicinal purposes is a criminal offence. The smoking of opium, the possession of opium prepared or intended for smoking, and the frequenting of opium dens, are criminal offences without lawful excuse.

And the exportation of any drug as defined above to any country which prohibits the entry of such drug is punishable.
