Our Youth Action Committee Member Leif Harris has a candid conversation with Daniel Lang, a social worker at the Canadian Mental Health Association, Ottawa Branch.

Our Youth Advisor, Leif Harris interviews Daniel Lang, a registered social worker and psychotherapist at the Canadian Mental Health Association (CMHA) Ottawa branch where he focuses on community mental health and substance misuse.

We discuss three important aspects that surround cannabis use:

First, the relationship between cannabis and tobacco and what that may look like.

Second, how cannabis and tobacco affect living a life according to an individual’s values.

Last, how individuals quitting cannabis need to look at the relationship holistically. That is, all aspects: the mental, spiritual, physical, and emotional health of the individual.
