As long as I can grow cannabis for my wife, as long as I am not completely legally dependent on Tweed, then that is all I ask a human being.

I really hope I can have my six plants and remain a customer of Tweed - but if I have to choose, I choose gardening

still long on CGC, they'll always be trying to screw over the little guy

I think you guys are talking about the same thing. MMAR was intended to be replaced entirely by MMPR. The courts found that there were elements of the MMAR that people deserved to be able to keep. By August 24th we're supposed to have something that incorporates this. Whether you call it MMAR 2.0, MMPR 2.0, or something else entirely, it is the tweaking of MMPR to ensure the issues raised by the lawsuit are addressed, which, if I understand it correctly, relate primarily to accessibility... (which personally I have a hard time seeing being compromised at all with nearly 30 LPs growing a crap-ton of weed, but that's clearly just me!).

I don't see HC taking a step back to start from scratch by amending MMAR. I'd expect an amendment to the MMPR - granting some expanded privileges to authorized medical patients; and, in a quid pro quo, perhaps the LPs will get some expanded rights as well.
