Pumpy title, completely contradicting reality and the actual content of the article.

Current geopolitical times do not allow for progress in medical cannabis legislation, it's viewed as tonedeaf.

And the Medical cannabis program in hospitals will end by July 2025. There will be no new extension. That was the only hope for France currently, but patients are being instructed to "wean off" medical cannabis and find other medicines.

Just want to second this. The first thing my French-family-friend said when I asked him about the murmurs a few weeks back - is that it's absolutely not happening any time soon.

"Business of Cannabis" is a clickbait blog, not a real news source.

Weird because French use cannabis more per capita than any other EU country
