The only legal pot producer in Atlantic Canada is welcoming a recent court decision that could allow medical marijuana users to grow their own.
Denis Arsenault, CEO of Organigram in Moncton, says he respects Canadians' rights to grow their own medical marijuana.
On Wednesday, a federal court decision struck down regulations restricting the rights of medical marijuana patients to grow their own cannabis.
Arsenault doesn't see it as something that will be bad for the fast-growing business.

"The market grows by about 2,500 patients every month," he said. "If you want to put that in perspective, 2,000 patients you know coming into the system every month represents about six billion dollars in sales a year."
Organigram is one of only 16 companies in the country licensed to grow and sell medical marijuana.
