Unable to download the model using the python3 -m gensim.downloader -i word2vec-google-news-300 #52

I get this error while trying to download the model in my code as well.

I initially got an error for not having the 'information.json' in the users/gensim-data/ folder. After finding this answer https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62861346/why-cant-i-download-a-dataset-with-the-gensim-download-api i was able to resolve that issue.

However, now i get this error below regarding the certificate verify failed error:

urllib.error.URLError: <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:997)>

Am i doing something wrong?

There was another part of the answer i missed that was to install certificate in python folder from the applications folder (Mac). It worked post the installation.
