Fifty-three percent of respondents admitted having tried cannabis – a percentage that is consistent with those reported in prior national surveys.

Sixty percent of active consumers were between 18 and 44 years of age. They were most likely to report consuming cannabis for the purposes of relaxation, reducing anxiety, and managing pain. Consistent with prior surveys, consumers were most likely to indulge in herbal formulations of cannabis.
