 The most exciting thing for me is having the opportunity to watch something that has been always illegal in our lifetime move to like this legal and regulated framework in Canada. I focus on cannabis policy, education and what access looks like for medical reasons. Cannabis is really just a plant and it's a plant that can be used a variety of different ways. Just like anything else there are responsible ways of using it and then there can also be more problematic ways that you can use any substance. For example cannabis can help with things like chronic pain or help people who are going through cancer especially with the treatments so when you feel sick or nauseated cannabis can help with that. Now that cannabis is legalized there are really so many opportunities for young people in this new and developing space. My name is Jenna Valeriani. I'm a cannabis researcher in Toronto, Ontario.
