This is relatively new information on the admissions that we received from CIHI. As I understand it, marijuana is a factor that has been brought to the attention of the physician when they're admitted to the hospital. So it's not necessarily the reason that they're admitted, but it is a factor that is affecting what is happening with the patient and is a cause for what is going on. The trend for marijuana—same protocol, same methodology—being either the factor or a contributing factor has increased over the years.
