Pointing to safety and financial concerns, the federal government is moving to cap the amount of coverage it will provide to veterans for medicinal marijuana.
With many veterans using up to 10 grams a day, Veterans Affairs Minister Kent Hehr says the new, three-grams per day limit is being set to match up with guidelines from the college of physicians.
The number of veterans being reimbursed for medical cannabis rose to more than three-thousand over the last eight years.
