Questioned at the beginning of 2022, before the presidential elections, more than two thirds of French people were in favor of legalizing the use of cannabis for medical purposes. Only 13 percent of the population was strongly opposed.
In France, a decree issued on February 17, 2022, which came into force on March 1, now authorizes the cultivation of cannabis for medical use, while setting rules for its production, distribution and consumption, and while maintaining its prohibition in certain cases.
