Question for the LP's and small LP's

[Jackal69]

So when it was MMAR you got a nifty letter(legal sized) paper and an id card, now we have the MMPR ... I heard LP's are giving out id cards with the first shipment or you use the label/container for id of authorisation to posses. So is everyone's card different ?....what about the labels? how the hell are the cops suppose to know if you just didn't photoshop a label/id card and print it out? yeah... get my meds and first day some over zealous cop takes it and hand cuffs me cause he don't know wtf...... without some sort of continuity with this I can see this being more abused than the MMAR ever was suspected of. So anyone know anything about this stuff and fill us in?

 

[leaffan]

The cards that are given out are not required and do not offer "proof".
The label on the child proof container is proof, and yes easily copied and wide open for abuse.
The cops are going to have a nightmare with this.

 

[Jackal69]

yippee so we have to carry around a big fucking plastic container, thank god I still have my ATP. what good are giving out id cards for then?

 

[Devil Lettuce]

The cards are just BS branding from the mega-producers trying to induce customer loyalty. Little do they know, NOT irradiating their medicine would do them a lot more good in the long run in this regard.....

 

[Jackal69]

So LP guys tell me more about the proof off the labels like can we rip/cut the label off and keep it with a bag of MMJ? most of you LP guys on here have either probably smoked rec or are med patients so tell us how we can carry this around like normal humans without a backpack?

Tweed gave me a card....but to make it valid I have to put a sticker that comes with each order on the back of the card....

 

[Jackal69]

LOL like a coffee card FFS

 

[Jackal69]

oh I got another question for you LP guys, ummm if someone goes with an LP..... then gets another LP so in fact they have two now..... how the hell do they know how much your buying and what are the consequences of someone going over their script? Do ya guys have to report quantities to the govt? (if ya do how is HC getting out of the MMJ business again?) HC then approves ya (like they did with that other business ... irradiated crap weed fro what I hear) then holds the information like they did before..... how again is HC getting outta the business?

To access multiple LP,s you would need multiple letters from your doctor, showing for example you can buy 3g daily from one LP, and 5g daily from a second one.

The labeling is going to cause many problems, silly HC should be issuing us ID cards, but they are not.

This is correct. You can split your prescription as long as the allowed amounts are divided up accordingly and you have all the separate paperwork from your doctor.

As a QA professional, I agree that the labelling is going to cause some major headaches, but I also have some solutions to address this issue for whichever LP hires me on

Have you had any conversations with Health Canada about being qualified in QA?
I've seen and heard of people being turned away for SOPs that weren't descriptive enough, not doing QA specifically at your place of employment in the past 5 years, lack of experience with plants, etc - they seem to be really hit or miss on the subject.

HC will not confirm or deny on an individual basis, but they have issued a detailed list of what qualifications the QA person must have and what their duties are expected to be under the MMPR. Beyond that, it is up the applicant to prove that the QA person fits the mold.....in my case, I have an extensive resume so this in not an issue.

I have also run my resume by some LPs that have already been approved, as well as a MMPR consultant, and I will qualify. I have 15 years of industry experience directly relating to QA, and have an education behind me as well. I've got extensive experience with QAP and SOP development over a variety of regulated industries. I also have a background in forestry, soils, and plant biology, as well as 8 years of growing experience, so I've got my bases covered.

You don't have to split your script. I've got singed forms for 3 LP's all for 5/g a day. My forms are in the mail and on the way to delta 9 and canna farms

It is up to me to make sure that I don't buy more than 150/g a month. All LP's report to big brother how much I get from them. So If I did try to get more then allowed. I'm sure HC would know... And take the appropriate action.....ie police kicking down my front door

 

[leaffan]

As of today...If your doc wrote you up for 5g/day, you can ask the doc to give you multiple 5g/day documents so you can buy from multiple LPs, or if an LP is out of stock, or product recall, etc...
Your script does not have to be "split up".
Health Canada says that you (the patient) cannot order more than your monthly dosage, but you can have multiple 5g documents and order from multiple LPs, but are not allowed to order more than what is intended 150g/month.
So five different 5g/day documents adds up to 150g/month not 750g/months.
You are on the "honor" system. The central data network isn't set yet.
I know this sounds bizarre.
If you are thinking...sweet I'm going to order 750 instead of 150 g/mos, you could have some real issues later on when HC does get their shit together and starts to look at the usage history.
HC probably will check the history, and if you abused it expect to loose the ability to order anything in the future.
Ask the patients of DR K what HC is capable of if you don't believe me.

too funny....we were typing the same thing at the same time Johny

If you are pulled over by the police and they find out ANYONE in your car has a script for med pot.
They will then ask each person for their drivers license. No big deal right?? WAIT!!!
They will then inform you all that no one can drive as the cop believes you all COULD have been smoking pot and you could be impaired. Letting you go after that is then THEIR FAULT, so to be on the safe side...lol YOU LOSE!!
They then INFORM you that your vehicle needs to be towed. NO ONE will be driving from there!!!!
If you have a problem with what is going on you can complain when you retrieve your drivers license at the station the next day.


The police are going to have a BALL GAME with this deal.

uh...as of right now, you're wrong on the first issue.
Regarding the second issue, maybe you should sell your solution to the police who would probably be more interested than an LP...this might be your gold mine!

I stand corrected on the multiple-LP prescription front, thank you for that.
