An Evolving Canadian Cannabis Industry

MMJ.com procures medical marijuana cards, both for new patients and those seeking renewals.

The Expansion of Medical Cannabis Education

With significant leaps in cannabis legislation and an increase in the medical cannabis market, comes the need for comprehensive education around medicinal marijuana benefits and safety measures. As the new President, McCarthy is projected to focus on addressing the critical need for education and awareness around medical cannabis use.
