Now he urges consumers to educate themselves as increasingly potent cannabis products become commercially available in Canada. Naturally occurring cannabis plants contain one to two per cent THC; genetically modified plants are cultivated to boost the percentage. Today, the amount in plants is much higher, and commercially available processed products can contain 20 per cent THC or more. Health Canada does have warnings online to "avoid cannabis completely" if you're at risk of psychosis or schizophrenia. He said it's important to understand that today's cannabis products are often stronger and act differently than a joint passed around in a basement in the '70s.

Globe and Mail columnist Andrew Coyne said media in Canada “should be moving away from the subsidy model,” as recent economic challenges have emerged due to public subsidies that jeopardize the industry’s ability to remain viable. Canadian political journalist Paul Wells hosted a live taping of The Paul Wells Show on Jan. 29 at the University of Toronto Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy with Coyne as his guest. Among other issues, they discussed government subsidies for Canada’s struggling media sector. Concerns about the reliability and independence of journalists producing government-funded news have been raised by some Canadians amid increased funding for Canadian news media. Following the Canadian government’s proposed ramifications, which required large tech companies such as Meta to pay to distribute Canadian news media content on their platforms, Meta ultimately restricted access to Canadian news outlets on Facebook and Instagram.
