Tilray Launches New Industry Association & Code of Ethics for Canadian Medical Cannabis Producers
Dear ,

Our priority is to always keep you, our patients, informed, so today we are announcing that we’ve terminated our relationship with the Canadian Medical Cannabis Industry Association (CMCIA). We made this decision after several unsuccessful attempts to persuade the CMCIA to adopt a Code of Ethics that would, among other things, prohibit Licensed Producers (LPs) from paying kickbacks to physicians in exchange for issuing medical documents and/or referring patients.

The practice of providing physicians with financial incentives for patient authorizations and referrals is a violation of the professional standards by which physicians must abide, as accepting kickbacks is clearly prohibited by provincial Colleges of Physicians. We believe it is critical that patients be free to choose whichever LP they feel best meets their needs, and we also believe that such a choice is best made through dialogue between a patient and his or her physician about the best medical cannabis strain for that patient’s individual medical need in the absence of any financial influence or incentive.

We are tremendously disappointed to end our relationship with the CMCIA, but we have lost confidence in the association’s ability to effectively define and enforce standards of behaviour for our industry. By failing to adopt a Code of Ethics that mandates a verifiable commitment to safety, transparency and avoidance of conflicts of interest, the CMCIA is failing to serve the best interests of Canada’s medical cannabis patients.

As a result, we’ve established the Canadian Medical Cannabis Council (CMCC), an association that represents Licensed Producers and others who are committed to building long-term trust with patients by ensuring the highest standards of ethical behaviour across the entire medical cannabis supply chain, including interactions between LPs and physicians. The CMCC’s Code of Ethics, which reflects a long-term commitment and accountability to patients, is based on six fundamental values: safety, integrity, quality, access, security and research. You can learn more about the CMCC at http://www.medicalcannabiscouncil.ca/

We appreciate you choosing Tilray as your LP, and we remain steadfast in our commitment to integrity in every interaction with physicians and patients, as well as to providing our patients with the best product and customer service. If you have any questions, please contact our dedicated customer support team, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-844-TILRAY1 (845-7291) or [email protected]

Thanks,

Greg Engel
Chief Executive Officer

Well...they have their fucking doctors all set up now in different provinces. Their sales reps were fucking out of work doctors. They have clinics and doctors, easy for them to say now that they don't want any kickback action. Hey Tilray answer this....have you ever been involved with a compensation program for doctors in the past?


That picture of Lucas does make this them like a gag though....seriously, that's the best photo you have?

isn't that a nice letter but does it really mean anything. are those same people running the new council?
hard to believe they are actually leaning towards the patients...except in making their product affordable

So other companies where getting more customers than Tilray and now they're have a tantrum because the other were more successful in their pay offs. LMFAO. YOU CAN EXPECT MORE LIKE THIS FROM CORPORATE WEED PEOPLE!

So they were part of this organization and when things didn't go their way they quit and shit on them? That's cute. Gotta love those 6 fundamental values...pffft...ffs, what is the point of the this?

Pffft. Goddam know it alls, I would trust one as far as I could throw them. weak sauce when it really comes down to it.

Thanks.

@WHATFG
in case you're wondering, just thought I'd spell it out for you as we both know how ambiguity confuses you.

All done.

oh the drama

This is just a way to promote themselves cheaply.

Code of ethics...LOL...No kickbacks to doctors...LMAO...no kickbacks, no industry.

associations..... councils ...... blah fucking blah ... just corporates making up some name to make people think this ASSociation is looking out for standards and is some fucking authority encase they do wrong?????? FFS any association attached to a business
i.e. chicken farmers of Canada (made up name) would only have people from that industry involved in the "association" all they do is play up to govt's for their industry not for anyone or anything ...... not to protect the public ... more to fuck the public over

total bullshit corporate slight of hand shit

Jackal!!! Where you been?

I got the same letter this week because they noticed my prescription is going to expire and kindly threatened me with having to re-apply if I don't send the my new script... oh no....
