Region 10 (Ottawa) – Registered Nurses Association of Ontario is pleased to host a symposium for the public titled: “Cannabis in our Community: A Panel Discussion”.

Cannabis was legalized in Canada last year and can now be used both recreationally and medicinally. The legalization of cannabis has many health impacts, has affected government policy, and changed legal implications. As nurses, we think it is important to keep the public informed on this timely health topic. The panelists will include professionals from the areas of primary health care, government, public health and acute care psychiatry. Booths will be setup by other community groups engaged in cannabis such as Ottawa Police, several youth organizations, and palliative care centers. The intent of this symposium is to look at cannabis from many different viewpoints, with a focus on cannabis and health.

The event will be held on May 5th from 1pm-4pm at the RA Center (Clark Hall). Refreshments will be served.

We are the training program + community connection + career curators for you.

  • Legitimate source for learning about the quality and history of cannabis, and apply that to your own health & wellness goals.
  • Explore the possibility of working in this new industry, whether starting your own business or working in a retail store.

What you’ll learn

A condensed hands-on class to build your confidence

  • History, Ancestry & Anatomy
    Explore the whats, whens, and hows of cannabis, from the cultural history to strain lineage to the modern aspects crucial for cannabis sommeliers to know (potency, quality, ratio, production methods). No more getting stuck in conversations forgetting what “kush” means (or why it matters)!
  • Understanding the Research
    Eliminate the fear of being uninformed in front of friends and family by really understanding all the new research. By discovering how to confirm legitimate sources of information, you’ll be able to engage confidently with anyone, anytime.
  • Expert Cannabis ID
    How can you tell good cannabis from not-so-good cannabis? How can you identify different strains? How do moisture and maturity affect your cannabis? Look at cannabis under a microscope, ask all your questions, and understand the science you need to understand the plant in the flesh.
  • Within the Law
    You want to safely explore cannabis within the new government limitations. But where do you start? We help you break down the most recent legislation regarding recreational cannabis, why it’s always changing, and how you can operate effectively within the rules.
  • Myth-busting & Practice
    In a newly legalized field, it can be hard to confirm facts. Everyone seems to be playing two-truths-and-a-lie. We bust the myths floating around about cannabis and put you in practice situations that help solidify your new knowledge.
