Medz Cannabis (dba as Royal Cannabis Supply Company) and Thrive Cannabis both received their retail store authorization (RSA) for "farmgate" sales from the province on April 20, a representative from the AGCO confirms. https://t.co/OKwP5J9LIk

We are very happy to see farm-gate sales coming to BC, but are concerned about the program being limited to "small scale" processors. https://t.co/9duHtFvoFm

As Cannabis Quality Assurance becomes the first company to try making a business out of grading the quality of Canadian weed, it’s getting criticized for being a cash grab with problematic membership on its advisory committees.

I have arthritis & 💚 pre rolls. I ordered these thru my Med LP @Hexocorp & was reminded of how med patients r treated. U know I can ONLY purchase via mail, why r they free floating in the bag & not protected? Like someone chewed the ends closed & then sat on them @hexomedical

I really don’t want to be a downer because this was an awesome feeling (especially when the judge singled out my testimony in the final judgement), but ... legalization and five years later, it is discouraging to see things only improving for $ome patients. More to do.

Still 🥳

Health Canada is launching two 30-day public consultations this spring on changing rules related to cannabis products. The agency is looking to create restrictions on flavours used in vapes and reducing requirements to bolster non-therapeutic research.

@CBC inaccurately reports that the regulations prevent people with a criminal record from getting a license to grow their medicinal cannabis

This is false- they can get a personal production license they just can’t be a designated grower for 10 years after conviction
