In the news today: A study led by Sarah Wilde and Arijit Nandi of the McGill Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics & Occupational Health looked at the impact of cannabis legalization on substance use: www.ctvnews.ca/montreal/art...

Here’s how cannabis legalization affected tobacco, alcohol and opioid use: McGill study
A new study out of McGill University shows that cannabis legalization has created a mixed bag of positive and negative impacts in addition to having possible effects on other substance use.
