In Canada we have had access to medical Cannabis for several years and now Recreational use is legal. One purchases it at a Government store or at a Pharmacy for the medical kind . There is a huge difference between the two products and also a very large range of difference with in the medical group, some are better for pain and mobility while the relaxation is only minor. A doctor here will tell you which one is best for you and give you a prescription. Sir Billy Connolly 's (who ever that is ) experiment would be like tasting a sardine and deciding you don't like all fish. Silly

Great things reported mostly in conversation has led to stores and pharmacy being empty.

at times.

Canada is an English speaking Common Wealth country. Nothing in news papers , internet or television /radio. Must be an English thing like Benny Hill or the Carry on Movies.
