i really think the government is going to choose commercialization as the dividing line between MMPR and MMAR type regulations with medical, and recreational will be entirely MMPR.
If money is involved it goes by way of MMPR regs, medical and rec. Homegrown should not be for sale, can't be inspected, personal use
like MMAR home growing is okay for private medical patients with a new authorization from a doctor or the patient can opt to go the LP route. Doctors are not a problem anymore in my opinion,
I like the idea of a common market place for shopping LP's to fill an authorization - that could be pharmacies, something like a dealers license - could be the new dispensary
maybe the dealers licensing and some boutique production scheme can handled by the provinces - the solutions for Quebec and Ontario will probably be different than with BC -
giving some way for serious MMAR growers to obtain a boutique production license for under 500 kilograms a year or something - this can't be done at someone's home though - many or the governments enemies would clean up nice, do some paperwork and pay some fees for a chance to do that in some warehouse somewhere, really participate in the economy, only the best and most organized would succeed, but if they did really well no reason they couldn't expand to be legitimate LP's.
Boutique LP licenses is fair for actual Canadians, we may not all like it but some people just don't want a corporate solution, they like small scale entrepreneurs - like craft beer or something
really hoping a common sense approach is used and cannabis starts getting treated like as a harmless recreational therapeutic herb and miracle drug, government should respect the people of Canada and give the best and hardest working of the MMAR community a seat at the table
the reality is thousands of Canadian have made the growing of cannabis their job - they provide to dispensaries that do provide to patients among other people - they are not the problem give those people realistic regulations to follow and they will be proud to do so - we should be honestly competing with these boutique operations
even if that is a small threat to our investment I don't care, they fought for this and they deserve a seat at the table -
the only alternative is a protracted civil rights war with ten's of thousands of Canadian growers, hundreds of entrepreneurs and lawyers, it'll cost money, time and political will and it will achieve nothing
