Thomas' Bill Pushes Psilocybin Access
from Calgary News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A Conservative MP is leading the charge to legalize psilocybin for therapeutic use in Canada, aiming to ease access for patients with severe mental health conditions and end-of-life anxiety. Inspired by constituents like Thomas Hartle, his bill—nicknamed “Thomas’ Bill”—would let doctors prescribe psilocybin like a narcotic, bypassing the current restrictive and often denied approval process. Advocates argue the system is outdated, especially as recreational use becomes easier, and point to years of legal battles and patient stories to push for change. With bipartisan momentum growing internationally and provinces moving ahead, the debate is shifting from stigma to science, as Canada considers expanding psychedelic-assisted therapy.
