"Introduction to Professional Management of Marijuana for Medical Purposes"

Newsday

Available for over a year

Students at a University in Canada can now sign up for this course. In Canada the use of marijuana for medical purposes has been legal since 2013. Last year companies selling the drug were allowed to float on the country's stock exchange. So is medical marijuana the new bubble? Tegan Adams is the course instructor and has been telling Julian Keane about what she calls "the gold rush of our generation".
