How To Apply

There are different application forms, depending on the type of access for which you are applying. It may seem confusing at first. Please read the guidelines carefully and ensure you have assembled all necessary support materials for your application. A properly completed application will ensure prompt processing.

Health Canada's examination of the current available information suggests most individuals use an average daily amount of 1 gram to 3 grams of dried marihana for medical purposes, whether it is taken orally, or inhaled or a combination of both.

If you have any questions about the application process, please don't hesitate to call toll-free, at: 1-866-337-7705. The mailing address and fax numbers for submitting your applications are indicated on the guides and forms.
