    I’m not familiar with Canadian healthcare but if cannabis can be prescribed then i don’t see why they couldn’t make medicine out of it.

      They do. You can get capsules with properly dosed amounts of THC/CBD etc.

      the problem is convincing the medical community in large that it’s a drug that has enough merit to be considered for larger amount of people. Right now, no insurance company will cover it. No Pharmacy stocks THC/CBD medication. And getting “medical” weed requires a lot of jumping through hoops that just aren’t worth it right now considering I can just go to the store and buy it retail anyways
