He said further studies would be necessary to reach a definitive conclusion on the long-term health and mortality impacts of marijuana consumption.
“The key underwriting considerations will include the frequency, purpose, and admission of use, as well as the type of marijuana used, the applicant’s age, history of accidents, risky behaviour, and other substance abuse.”
