Um actually, in the US you can get fired for THC in your system for recreational use. Some states, even if it's medical.

Yes it's bullshit, but that's the problem with it not being federally legal and companies in multiple states. You will probably lose if you fight it, use of marijuana is not protected and your employer is protected from you arguing it is because firing you for this still falls under "at-will" termination.

Only mentioning this to dispel the idea other folks will get away with this. You just got lucky it seems.

Obviously he wasn't from one of those backward regions like Edmonton or America.

..and in proper places, you don't want to deny someone's human rights, as the penalties have no upper limit.

Is it still illegal in Edmonton somehow even though it was legalized in Canada nationally?

It can't be illegal in Alberta, right? It has been legalized since 2018. Unless you have more than 4 plants.
