POT TV – CBC News reported on a Canadian Medical Association Journal article.
“Acute care related to cannabis use during pregnancy after the legalization of nonmedical cannabis in Ontario” raised concern on the CBC, but without much context.
The study was inconclusive, included cannabis derivatives, did not screen for additional drugs, like tobacco, and the largest factor of adverse effects on infants and mothers was from low-income and rural settings.
Since the legalization of cannabis in Canada, in 2018, there has been no low-barrier storefront access to medial cannabis, and many of the compassion clubs providing the service illegally prior to legalization have been shut down. Why are pregnant mothers, or anyone else, trying to find medicine in recreational stores?
