Despite its legalization and the increasing use of medicinal cannabis among Canada’s aging adult population there remains many unasked and unanswered questions. In an open forum we aim to have a transparent conversation about the current level of knowledge and perceptions that the research shows to exist currently in society.  The goal is to unpack and clarify some of the confusion and work to decrease the stigmatism that still persists regarding the use of medicinal cannabis for healthy aging.

Join us for a discussion with experts about the latest research, evidence, and experiences in medicinal cannabis.
