For five years, High Hopes has been bringing medical cannabis to people in need in DTES. Established in 2017, High Hopes is a community-based medical cannabis dispensary, or ‘compassionate club’, as defined by Health Canada, that strives to relieve the suffering of critically and chronically ill Canadians who may benefit from the use of medical cannabis.

High Hopes is founded on the principle of harm reduction and improved public health, and as such, has remained committed to providing safe, quality cannabis products and services to its members. Despite the many legal challenges we have faced since our inception, we have continued to operate in a transparent, accountable and responsible manner.

However, the recent legalization of cannabis in Canada has created a new framework for medical cannabis providers and patients. As a result, High Hopes has recently obtained a license from Health Canada, allowing us to provide medical cannabis to their members legally and safely.

High Hopes is now a fully-licensed medical cannabis provider, and is committed to ensuring that their members receive the best possible care. We strive to ensure that their members have access to the highest quality products and services, as well as the education and support they need to make informed decisions about their health.

The legalization of cannabis in Canada has opened the door for organizations like High Hopes to provide medical cannabis to those in need. With our continued commitment to improved public health, and our dedication to providing safe and quality products and services, we have high hopes the medical cannabis movement in Canada.
