3/ Canadians have the right to die, and we should have the right to try a treatment that could ease suffering in care, with a doctor.

Great to see thoughtful reporting from the @AndrewJacobsNYT on psychedelics

It comes the same week the DEA asked HHS to review psilocybin’s Schedule I status

Rescheduling would mark a historic shift in the U.S. Canada should be paying close attention.

A WIN IN FEDERAL COURT!

The Federal Court of Appeal, has ruled that the Minister’s 2022 denial of psilocybin training exemptions was “unreasonable.”

Thanks to @pope_nicholas , our applicants, and our entire community.

Now the Minister must reconsider.

This National Hospice Palliative Care Week, we honour the individuals and families navigating serious illness—and the hospice and palliative care teams who walk alongside them with compassion and dedication

[TheraPsil @TheraPsil]

That must include the right to access effective, compassionate mental health care—including psilocybin, which remains needlessly out of reach for too many Canadians

We stand with this year’s theme: Palliative Care is For You
