. There is no free lunch. There are benefits for some in using marijuana derivatives and there will be negative side effects for others.

Yeah you're right. I have a lot of experience with this issue and I definitely have a lot of compassion for people with mental health issues (all of us). One of the problems with marijuana is that there are thousands of chemicals involved. Yes some are beneficial and some are not. More research needs to be done to hopefully extract the right compounds for specific medical issues, CBDs, for example. THC, and getting high, is not a necessarily good side effect. There are far better medicines that cannabis for treating many mental health issues. It is not a cure-all.

With pretty much all psychotropic meds, there are iatrogenic and paradoxical effect for a few, and these are unpredictable and serious.

There was nothing wrong with what he wrote:

 in·ti·mate
/ˈin(t)əˌmāt/
verb
gerund or present participle: intimating
imply or hint.
"he had already intimated that he might not be able to continue"

Your grammar teacher would be proud of you.

Funny how the Riders can't afford John Murphy but can afford Paul Jones. It seems only the Riders can do magic like that & no one else. 

They will have plenty of football ops cap space when Chris Jones gets hired by an NFL team :)
