your thoughts on today's court case(federal)

only thing that is changing for ppl w mmar licenses is their possession limit of only 150g now I have standing..yes!!!! ; D

I understand your point symtom..If I was you id grow..you cant be convicted..dont let them force you into a flawed unconstitutional program.

This is all kind of confusing to me, damn lawyer speak and what not. I hold a valid ATP under the MMAR, but that is all. After reading the judges order it is my understanding my ATP will be valid until the next court case now? Or is it only for those that hold an ATP and PPL/DPPL?

if your busted file a constitutional challenge and a motion to quash all charges related to cannabis as unknown to law. when there is not a constitutional valid exeption there is no offence

So what about people that were forced into the mmpr? We just got shafted imo. Don't get me wrong I'm happy for you guys but we're still fucked. And no less in need of a reliable quality supply. Disappointed.

Hey symptum...I think that no matter what.....if you started growing now with only a possession lic.....there would not be a judge that would convict....
I'm no lawyer mind you....but there has been plenty of legal actions taken previously to set precedence ...if you could not apply for a grow licence because they were not available under the mmpr...then now ,its not going be considered "reasonable access"....should you start to grow...
do what you need to to look after yourself....and if it will make you feel more comfortable ,maybe a quick consult with a lawyer, should be in the cards...
the other choice might be to re-apply for a grow licence....and if you get turned down.....and most likely will...you will have a paper trail to show you tried to follow what had been in place before this unconstitutional MMPR was rammed into force...
bottom line patients need come first

edit for take Doc's advice

9-12 months is the target for trial date.

yes joy..you valid until decision is rendered so are patients with valid pupl and dppls

canadian is right.

Well that makes me feel a hell of a lot better. Thought I was still going to get scammed into the MMPR somehow. Time to medicate with my non LP herb!

Happy as fuck!!...cheers everybody lol.

How are we supposed to control growing so that we don't end up with more than 150g? Hell, I never know what I'm getting until it's on the scale? Mind you I'm only on my third crop so that estimation may get easier.

Thanks for the info guys. I think I just might make the move to grow. 5 plants so I'm under the l8mit if 6 just in case.

I'm quite certain it means you can only transport that much at any given time. You can have more in storage. Either way, the RCMP have no business visiting you at this point which is good.

It said nothing about storage, only possession. Dont carry around much more than a 1/4 LB is not an unreasonable request in my opinion. I just hope it doesnt force some poor DG to drive back and forth from a patients house for a larger sized script. Your storage will be whatever is on the production license.

your plant numbers and storage will not change..your carry limit is only 150g...so basically im locked down in my home? lol I cant wait to get to court..lol hey I travel alot! I better blaze constant 150g gagers

the mmpr will be found to be unconstitutional..lps will be screwed..lol they new this to..thats why over 450 lps applied and only 12 have been accepted..lol

I'm happy for those who had registered under the program, drink, eat, smoke mj and grow on, at least until this case is brought to court again.

That said, I grow for my own meds and others in my circle of friends (I'm over 50 so unfortunately have too many friends in this boat) who have the C word. It so happens that I love growing so it's all good.

Although I could have easily registered and obtained a license, I hesitated and decided to stay under the radar. Mainly because no government, now or as long as I'm around, will tell me what to do (can you tell I was born in the 50's and grew up in the 60's/70's? - lol). But also knowing that this fight, and confusion, will continue until it is LEGALIZED, or at minimum decriminalized (although I can't see that happening, decriminalizing growing that is). At which point there will be no registration required. In the meantime I will continue to grow under the radar and Health Canada's ridiculous statement today (threats of ratting out non-compliant growers to the RCMP) just confirmed the second main reason I hesitated registering, and will never register with any government program.

Don't trust "the man" as an old term from the 60's and 70's goes...

It's a good day for us, enjoy it, time to go feed the babies
