They're opiates. The medicinal benefits are very apparent. They do what they're supposed to do, often too well.
Medical marijuana is grown for medicinal users - it's meant to help cancer patients eat. It's not used to treat cancer itself - even if cannabis has anti cancerous properties (which I don't know that it does) I doubt one would access them in brownie or Bong form.
And not to heap more blame upon our former dear leader, but Stephen Harper calling it 'infinitely worse than tobacco' didn't help matters.
