Medical Use of Marihuana
Did you know?
The 
Marihuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR) were published in the Canada Gazette, Part II, on June 19, 2013. These regulations provide a new way to access marihuana for medical purposes and will operate concurrently with the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAR) until March 31, 2014, when the MMAR will be repealed. The MMAR and MMPR deal exclusively with the medical use of marihuana and do not address the issue of legalizing marihuana for general use.
