Over the years, many people have asked me why I use cannabis. Medication choice is a very personal question, one that is usually only shared with loved ones, health care professionals or healers, however as the cannabis debate continues to rage on, we frequently find ourselves defending our personal mythologies, until we get to the point where we just start refusing to answer. After all, no one ever asks what kind of condoms we use... but maybe we should. Harm reduction principles are well understood in the practice of safe sex, so why not cannabis in the practice of achieving personal wellness. |

Ethics; that branch of philosophy which studies the principles of right or wrong in human conduct. Webster's Dictionary
Our journal has primarily focused on the medical and ethical issues surrounding the use of cannabis for almost 4 years. We have seen an evolution; the use of cannabis for medical purposes is now widely accepted by over 90% of the general public. The City of Vancouver in their draft plan "Preventing Harm from Psychoactive Substance Use" and the Health Officers Council of BC in their discussion paper "A Public Health Approach to Drug Control in Canada" have proposed revolutionary drug policy reforms which would include the development of a regulated marijuana industry. |
