Francois Arcand says he doesn’t want gravely ill people to think of medical marijuana as their last hope because of all the red tape that surrounds it.
The 42-year-old had to first find a doctor who would help him get a Health Canada licence to use marijuana to ease his epilepsy. Then he waited a year for approval.
