Dear Sirs and Mesdames:

Optimi Health Corp. – Warrants

We have acted as Canadian counsel to Optimi Health Corp. (the “Company”), a company existing under the provincial laws of British Columbia, in connection with a registration statement on Form F-1, including all amendments and supplements thereto (the “Registration Statement”), as filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission under the United States Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the Company’s initial public offering of units (the “Units”), with each Unit consisting of one (1) common share with no par value (each ,a “Common Share”) and one (1) warrant to purchase Common Shares (each, a “Common Warrant”) in the United Sates (the “Offering”).

In connection with the Offering, the Company is offering a number of (i) Units comprised of such number of Common Shares and Common Warrants as set forth in the Registration Statementand is also registering the issuance of (i) warrants to purchase up to a number of Common Shares as set forth in the Registration Statement to Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC (the “Underwriter”), as well as (ii) up to a number of Common Shares as set forth in the Registration Statement issuable upon the exercise of the Underwriter Warrants to purchase Common Shares at a price per Common Share equal to 120% of the initial public offering price.

The Common Warrants together with any additional Common Warrants issued to cover over-allotments pursuant to an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) to be entered into between the Company and the Underwriter, as described in the Registration Statement, are collectively referred to as the “Offered Warrants”.

Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Underwriting Agreement.

Examination of Documents

As Canadian counsel to the Company, in giving the opinions expressed below, we have participated in the preparation of, and have examined executed copies of the Registration Statement, the Underwriting Agreement and the form of certificate representing the Offered Warrants (the “Warrant Certificate”).

For the purposes of the opinions expressed below, we have considered such questions of law, examined such statutes, regulations, public records and certificates of government officials and examined originals or copies certified, authenticated or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of such records of corporate proceedings, corporate documents attached to the public records, certificates, opinions and instruments and have made such other investigations as we have considered necessary or desirable in connection with the opinions hereinafter set forth, including, but not so as to limit the generality of the foregoing, the following:
