A Nova Scotia man has set up Atlantic Canada’s first chapter of a national club for people who need to buy marijuana for medical reasons.
John Cook‘s Compassion Club, which has about 25 members in the Halifax area, is one of about a dozen groups in Canada that are part of the loosely knit Cannabis Buyers Club.
Cook, who regularly smokes marijuana for back and neck pain caused by a dislocated vertebrae, said he started the club to help patients who don’t get relief from traditional pain killers and haven’t yet received government exemptions.
