No High Risk: Marijuana May be Less Harmful Than Alcohol, Tobacco

https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/le...-shows-n312876

This report came out in 2015, people need to calm down about the legalization in Canada, it is not a big deal and it will probably not increase the number of users by a great deal.

There are risks to young people, this is why it will be illegal to sell to them. You will claim that they will still get their hands on it, valid point, but they get their hands on illegal booze all the time and nobody is crying to ban booze again, even though it is proven to be significantly worse to the body and to the health care system.

Read all the articles, make sure they are valid, make a decision for yourself and accept the consequences of those choices either way.

Doctors have been prescribing cannabis for years to hundreds of thousands of patients across the country to treat many many types of illnesses. Alcohol destroys cells and tobacco well we all are aware of the health problems it causes. There is nothing beneficial to the body from alcohol or tobacco, only negative effects. Can't say the same about cannabis, as its used in the medical world for treatment options.

Much safer than the Opioids that doctors have been pushing on people for years, maybe people are so up in arms about it because it is easily grown in most places in the world, cheap meds and cheap recreation, tough on corporations and taxes.

Smoking anything is not healthy. If you want the benefits , you can ingest this in much more healthy ways.

Edibles are illegal under the new law? Basicly you smoke it or it is illegal.

You cannot buy edibles, you can make what ever you want with it, you can buy dried and oil.

Andrew Monte, a professor of emergency medicine at the University of Colorado School of Medicine,says.

"Edibles unpredictable "
That can lead users to "stack doses," he said. "In my opinion, edible agents are not consistent with what a recreational user is looking for to get high."
Drawing from his clinical experience, Monte cautioned against making recreational cannabis edibles widely available.

It is very easy to take more than expected, similar to someone chugging a 26.

Knowledge of the product and the strength is necessary and use due care around those who should not have access, no different than the liqueur cabinet or the medicine cabinet.
