It is my opinion that they should have their costs subsidized by either the government (Disability, Welfare etc.) or allowing another person who lives there to grow for them.
If they truly want to treat cannabis like the rest of medicines well that has to start with cannabis being given a D.I.N...
The Designate grower days are over in my opinion.
The solution is simple to me, if you want to be able to cultivate cannabis for your medicine, you must also be willing to allow an inspector in your garden without much notice.
A small team of inspectors could do random inspections in different...
You dont have to be able to afford it. There will be a court ordered injunction almost certainly. Supreme Court rulings are binding and in 2001 the Supreme Court of Canada ruled that any person(s) that had the need for Cannabis for medicinal purposes as prescribed by a physician MUST HAVE...
In my opinion it will be extended for 12-18 months. The new Health Minister will more than likely try to draw up a new plan which allows for both PPLs and licensed producers and perhaps even local compassion clubs(longshot).
I really feel as though the Liberals will win a strong majority in...
I disagree, and if they somehow got the changes to actually be implemented the first patient to be arrested for growing would challenge the law and easily defeat it. you should research the charter of rights and freedoms and also the 2000 Supreme Court of Canada ruling on Medicinal cannabis. I...
Most believe the MMAR will be extended as it is until the MMPR mess can be sorted out. Too many folks will become sick, hospitalized or die without their PPL or DGs license.
The supreme court ruled any person that demonstrated need for medicinal cannabis as prescribed by a physician MUST have reasonable access. Forcing people to buy at $8/g what they can grow for pennies is not reasonable access.
Eliminating access to fan leaves violates that 2000 Supreme court...
Mandatory minimums can only be requested by the crown if they can prove the cultivation was for the purpose of trafficking. If a patient simply continues to grow his or her allowed plant numbers from under the MMAR they would easily be able to prove that it was NOT for the purpose of...
I truly believe they will preserve personal production licenses. A supreme court ruling is binding and unless the government says they will provide the cannabis free or ban ALL indoor horticulture of ANY kind then we will be allowed to continue to cultivate our own. Synthetically grown...
And this will be presented to the judge along with our impact statements.
They are also challenging the dried cannabis only so that the rest of the country is on par with BC (where its already ok to make edibles and extracts.)
On September 30th the coalition against repeal's lawyer will be challenging these new regs. The changes are completely unconstitutional so I wouldnt' worry too much until after the legal challenge is over.
The new regs clearly violate the charter of rights and freedoms on 3 separate sections...
Its unconstitutional....I'm not sure if you understand what that means.
It was argued in the Supreme Court in 2000. It IS being challenged and the court date is set for September 30th.
When the MMPR is found to be in violation of 3 different sections of the charter of rights and freedoms and...
They signed MMAR paperwork, they will not sign MMPR. New Brunswick and Ontario colleges are also rumored to be opting out. If you think the Charter of Rights and Freedoms will be ignored by the supreme court you are mistaken.
The court challenge date is set for the 30th of September buckets. :)
We WILL win that case, its not even remotely close. Clear violations of the Charter AND the 2000 Supreme Court ruling.
My guess is that these companies will be allowed to grow and sell to the patients of Canada (which Im glad...
