Government does not set the prices, unless you live in one of the provinces which cannabis is only sold at the provincial liquor store. The issue is the taxes are so high it's nearly impossible for a cannabis business to generate income while selling at a price point people will buy it at. You have to remember that generally most of Canada is on the poor side.
