VANCOUVER — The Canadian Medical Association says 72 per cent of doctors who responded to a survey it conducted want the federal government to regulate THC levels in recreational marijuana. Over 57 per cent of survey respondents said they did not want medical marijuana to be sold in health-care settings, such as pharmacies. “The feeling was that that would send the wrong message, that in fact recreational marijuana was somehow equated with other types of pharmaceutical products,” Blackmer said. Private Liquor Store Association have joined forces to advocate for the right to sell recreational cannabis through public and private liquor stores. Doctors responding to the survey were also divided on whether people with medical exemptions could grow their own marijuana.
