I imagine we see some sort of decriminalization in the first sitting of Parliament, until the proper legislation addressing regulation and taxation is implemented. The provinces will need to be involved like they are in the sale of liquor, and that's the part of legalization I think will take the most time.

We already have the infrastructure in place to sell it with the many head shops that are already in the city. They would just need to be licensed to sell after legislation is passed.

I fully expect all non violent offenses regarding cannabis will be pardoned not long after decriminalization.
