The Controlled Drugs and Substances Act (CDSA) is Canada’s federal drug-control law that lists scheduled substances and sets out their legal status. It is the Canadian counterpart to the United States Controlled Substances Act.
Kratom is not currently scheduled under the CDSA, though it is restricted by other Health Canada rules. For the broader picture, see Kratom Legality and the Controlled Substances Act entry.
