Does this SCC Ruling mean I can LEGALLY buy concentrates from a Dispensary?

No and no.

This ruling means you can *possess* and consume edibles, etc. It doesn't make it legal to buy them. Dispensaries are still not legal, and this ruling doesn't change that. Don't give people bad legal advice. LPs cannot sell them, either, and no one knows when they will be allowed to. Don't expect it to happen soon, since Health Canada does nothing 'soon'.
Sorry columbo
Technically dispensaries are illegal but since there are a few that have operated this long and even sell edibles and oils, i would guess now is safer than ever to purchase said items. And i think lps will be offering these sooner than u think.
I seriously hope to hell that people arent really coming onto this site for actual legal advice.
This recent ruling is too new for anyone to claim to know what any of it means yet. Including you

All cannabis and its derivatives are still illegal, unless you are federally exempted by health Canada LP, or the court MMAR. If you are an exemptee and it's in your possession it is legal. Otherwise it is still Illegal. It's down to the matter of accses now, it leagal to posess if your exempt, but there are no legal sources at the moment.

Why wouldn't you think that you are the source? There is absolutely no common sense to think that the Supreme Court doesn't get that patients are making their own shit...Owen Smith was the vehicle to get to this most "outrageous" conclusion...and I say that because he's not a patient...so I conclude from that that dgs/caregivers can supply....

Yes it is legal to buy them. It's illegal to sell them. Not hard to understand.
Nope. Read what Tousaw and many others have already said. The ruling makes it legal to possess not to buy. Not to mention that nothing about dispensaries are legal, anyway. There is not a single 'dispensary' in Canada that is legal to buy anything from, edibles or flowers or dabs. Stop misinforming the public.

"Safer than ever" is correct. But you said 'legal'. As you now admit, they are not legal.

Don't misinform people.

Maybe you should have come to that conclusion before you spread misinformation, rather than just being emotional and immature about being corrected. Don't attack me because you're uninformed.

Not my fault you don't understand what's gonna get you in front of a judge and what won't. Buying is legal. The act of selling concentrates is what illegal. The sellers alone face charges not the buyer as long as they are mmj patients. You seem to give the acts cof buying and selling the same legal weight. They are not the same and buyers face no punishment. It's legal no matter your interpretation. You are correct all dispensarys are illegal. But it's not illegal to buy from them!

Gmack420 only legal to posses if you are a patient.

Making it is a no no for LP's D's and CC's as it stands....
I agree totally. But there's no law against BUYING them as dizzy a cray say. What law is being broken by the buyer? None it's only the sellers that risk prosecution. Buy as. Much as you can legally carry. We are mearly taking possession of a drug we are legally allowed to have in exchange for $$. Like I've said the sellers bear the weight of the law on this one not the buyers as well. And in case people can't read it's only for medical patients that have the proper mmj documents not everyone

Unfortunately Owen was only tried for possession. Too bad he wasnt charged with manufacturing as we would all be free to do so.
So, its kind of like canadas music download laws. You can download it but you cant upload it.

just like the grey area they are in...they are allowed to serve an area that isnt fully understood yet and because of that they are not being charged as they fill that void......

its kinda weird really.

Everyone is shaking their head and saying....legalize this fuck up...its the only way,

The key wording is "federal exemption" makes you good to go. Not a card you got from a dispensary over a Skype appointment. If you are federally exempt you are safe otherwise it's all Illegal,and you may face a judge.
There are no exceptions, your either federally exempt or your not, very black and white.

I've never had anything but face to face doctor consults by a licensed doctor. My medical marijuana document he gave me is my federal exemption. No cc cards or Skype appointment here. You're the one who has the cc membership cards and is not covered by a federal exemption.

I'm a criminal remember. I don't need no stinking exemption. I smoke to get high.

Your family doctor? Or a clinic doctor. Your fooling yourself if you think your federally exempt. Only the federal government can grant you that, not your doctor, he only recommends cannabis as a treatment. You can have your day in court and probably win, but your still not a federal exemptee, only they are truly legal to posses an illegal product.
