Ru suggesting that the 40 000 ~ MMAR scrip holders are the majority?
If the entire population of canada is allowed 6 plants, do you think there won't be any market for retail licensed producers?
Your logic is very cloudy. You can grow your own tomatoes, bake your own bread and cook your own meals and drive your own cars, and make your own moon shine . But the MAJORITY still buy tomatoes, bread , take out restaurant meals and use some form of public transport and buy booze .
What seems obvious is folks like you and a+b mascot are very concerned about your permits , so you are scape goating LP's out of frustration. So again, LP's did not right the rules. And LP's don't want your lisence. Your Government does.
The only thing you can boast is that the broken injuncted model is still able to operate (with great uncertainty). But surely you can see the unaccountable business activities of dispensaries are destined to change at best.
I really am trying to pull sense out of your position. Your not an investor, but your on an investors board pointing out your opinions on regulations? The MMAR is starting to seem more and more like a cult with coveted control of people's brain space and opinions. How no one can even acknowledge the reform coming while claiming your 40 k member congregation speak with one voice and for the entire population of Canadians is beyond my understanding. At least acknowledge the few millions in opposition to your position or a different perspective and keep up your good fight.
MMAR have had the monopoly on access for the past decade. The only people in the country with legal access to use, buy and even sell( receive compensation for producing) cannabis. Now the flood gate is opening and your on ihub crying about it?
The smart thing to do is get together . stay in the game. Get a CEO without a criminal record and start a corporation . Get your 40k followers to give a $100 offering and start your own LP nd rock on. Pay your investors in budd and live happily ever after. But your scared. Because every time you take your blinders off and read something other than cannabis culture online, you see the words REGULATE and RESTRICT.
What's next? Take the liberals to the Supreme Court over your perceived right to grow and sell recreational cannabis without regulation? Good luck with that. I think if your going to debate the subject, at least tone down the excessive bias toward the clique. Don't assume that by regulate and restrict, the liberals mean "shut down LP's and let MMAR home growers supply all of Canada". That my fellow Cannabis Friend is Delusional! That is straight Jim Jones Purple Kool aiding through a straw.
There's already been suggestion ( from Colorado themselves) that their rules were amiss and too lax that And Canada should learn from their mistakes and not veer to aggressively from the current MMPR. The Colorado home grow is still supplying an illegal market in neighbouring counties and states that remain illegal. Concentrations of edibles , labelling and packaging had to be reigned in because of serious health risks. But you knew that right? But instead your still here peddling the Utopian idea that every hand that touches cannabis is righteous and pope Paul holy. That is far from reality.
What I think is the ~8 million or so Canadians (myself included) who have been for years buying illegally can't wait for the day when they can purchase legally from someone that's not 40 years old and still living in their mothers basement. I think they want to purchase their cannabis similarly to how they purchase liquor with some variation. And I support that theory by pointing out the 40% of Canadian voters that supported the liberal platform concerning that. What majority are you referring to? Surely more than social media and online cult magazines.
