Event Type

Public perceptions may be changing about cannabis; however, the fact remains that there is much to learn and that cannabis use in older adults has risks. As the body ages, older adults are more vulnerable to the effects of cannabis due to unique physiology, psychological, social and pharmacological circumstances. Come for a discussion led by Ottawa Public Health on the use of non-medical cannabis by older adults:

  • Health effects
  • How to lower risk
  • How to distinguish fact from fake news regarding cannabis
