Doctors Nova Scotia make recommendations on cannabis

HALIFAX: On Monday, Doctors Nova Scotia released six recom- mendations to encourage the province to take a population health approach to cannabis legalization. The recommendations aim to minimize the harms associated with cannabis use. “Our recommendations are heavily influenced by organizations and leading experts on the topic,” said Dr. Tim Holland, chair of the association’s Policy and Health Issues Committee. “It’s clear that cannabis availability and use must be carefully considered.” Health Canada data from 2012 indicates cannabis is the most commonly used illegal drug in Nova Scotia. Lifetime use of cann- abis by Nova Scotians is 42.4 per cent, the highest provincial usage in Atlantic Canada and the fourth highest in Canada. According to the Nova Scotia Student Drug Use Survey 2012: Technical Report (Dalhousie University), the percentage of junior and senior high school students who have used cannabis has re- mained relatively unchanged since 1996, hovering between 32.1 and 37.7 per cent. Students in Grades 7, 9, 10 and 12 in Nova Scotia reported past year usage at 34.7 per cent. In this population, cann- abis use more than once per month was reported by 16.2 per cent of males and 12.4 per cent of females. Doctors Nova Scotia believes it will be important to restrict cannabis use in public places and restrict its availability, similar to the approach taken with tobacco, yet not to the degree that it triggers underground sales. photo by Grant McDaniel “Our province has made great strides to protect youth from Naturopathic Doctor Glenna calder (left) and Masterchef tobacco use; the result has been decreased rates of tobacco use canada contestant Debbie MacDonell-MacDonald put on among youth and adults alike.
