POT DISPENSARY OPENS IN SOUTH VANCOUVER

Vancouver's latest medical marijuana dispensary will open today on 
Fraser Street.

The Imedikate Medical Cannabis Dispensary, at 6128 Fraser St., is the 
sixth such dispensary in the city and the first in south Vancouver.

The dispensary will distribute marijuana to patients whose serious 
illness would benefit from its use.

Patients must bring proof of serious illness or a recommendation from 
a doctor for marijuana to be dispensed.

Imedikate director Jacob Hunter said a physician would be available 
to assess individuals whose family doctor was not supportive of such 
treatment but who might benefit from it.
