Actually, there is no right to affordable medicine under the Canada Health Act. What is promised is "universal coverage for medically necessary health care services provided on the basis of need, rather than the ability to pay."

As far as I know, the current LPs do meet with HC and try to make the rules a little more logical. Health Canada is the boss in this. The Lps would rather develop a different plan, but they can't. They are forced to work within the rules and guidelines created by Health Canada. If you...

I guess I may have had the order wrong, but not by much. I included some of the staff in "regulatory compliance" and "security". Hydro will be about $ 25 - 30 K per month. I didn't mention the cost for insurance, security monitoring, software, book-keeping, lawyers, accountants, etc. There...

Hi Jackal: I don't understand your assumption that all Lps will be the same. This is a business. Not all businesses, such as restaurants are the same. Some have great food and service, some suck! Yes, some of the current Lps have made the mistakes you mentioned, but for a company to stay in...

I have heard about the same, but not from any official source. From what I have heard, once you have your "security and storage" inspection, you can grow, then you have to wait for your "distribution" inspection prior to selling. I just want to get the first inspection, been waiting months for...

I completely agree with you on most will continue buying recreational meds from the BM. Hopefully some don't. I know I wouldn't, I won't risk my home, my lifestyle, travelling, or the risk of having a criminal record. I think there are a lot of people like me that may have tried marijuana in...

Great question! I think that the currently licensed producers can supply the "recorded" patients with their prescribed dosage. Health Canada doesn't want to have a greater supply than demand, therefore potentially leading to "diversion". I think this is why they are not licensing any new LPs...

To Yessica: I have really tried to see your point of view, or even to get your point, but I can't do it. I just see way too many nonsensical posts that are well below my comprehension level. I am now ignoring you, not because I dislike you, but I just can't waste this much time on incoherent...

Is anyone planning on going to the " Mariuana for Medical Purposes"conference in September in Toronto? http://www.ipacanada.com/Marihuana_Medical_Purposes_2014/index.php Does anyone know anything about this?

Thanks for coming out and offering help! Do you have any idea why Health Canada seems to have stopped inspections of future LPs and how to get an inspection?

How does that old commercial go....? "If I give one to you, I have to give one to everyone!". ;-) Seriously, it seems to me that almost everyone that is out there bragging and showing off their site is either got a huge ego or needs a huge input of cash. My ego is not that big and I don't...

Hi Leaffan: I would love to hear more about this. Can you PM me or just let us all know what you have heard? Or who to contact about this?

I am very happy to read this and thank you for posting it.

Yes, our application is running smoothly. We have waited a few months now for our pre-license inspection. As has been mentioned here, the Health Canada inspectors seem to be busy elsewhere. In regards to you questions about concentrates, as far as I understand, LPs can only distribute "dried...

Thank you for the comments and likes. What I say is true, I have no reason to lie, especially here. As for a virtual tour, I have had the opportunity to see many of the current and future LP facilities. Some are excellent, and some are terribly designed and built. This is a competitive...

I am in favor of Lp's and I hope to be one. I am first of all a patient, and I have grown my own medicine for quite a few years. Secondly, I am a registered nurse. I have seen the amazing results that patients have had from using marijuana as medicine, including myself. I am a patient...

Thank you! I have ignored the 2 annoying posters here, not hopefully the adults can talk.
