I am a Union ironworker who has a medical cannabis prescription. I am ready and capable to work but unfortunately I am currently being told because THC is in my system, it doesn't meet the Canadian "standards" of a safe worker.

I do not agree with our current system in Alberta and hoping together as medical cannabis patients we can show the Government, Unions, contractors and companies that we are hard working citizens and just bcause we use our medical prescription on our own time we should not be discriminated against. We all need to find ways of making people understand and mainly update the "Canadian Model for Providing a Safe Workplace"
