So about 40% of people have smoked marijuana at least once in their life, and 10% of Canadians have smoked it the last month. Is any information available on those people's health status or the consequences of their marijuana use?
I don't want to accuse my colleagues across the way of fear mongering, but we can see where the conversation is headed. They seem to be insinuating that even the slightest marijuana use can cause irreparable long-term damage when, ultimately, I feel that the reality is much more nuanced.
Do you have any information on the health status of the 10% of Canadians who consume marijuana every month and of the 40% who have consumed the drug at least once? What are the long, medium and short-term effects on those people?
