I remember thinking that was an odd choice for a name when they first popped up:
Aphria is a genus of flies in the family Tachinidae

Since when are HC "medical folks"? Ambrose is an appointed puppet with ZERO medical credentials.

the most annoying thing ever imo.. shes just a politician.. they fuck up so much that they need a health minister who can put a game face on and apologize and talk out her ass...

The one that just got approval has full blown shots of their plants growing.... WTG
Any new shop opening before Jan 12 has a shot

I'm glad to see them licensing producers again - things need to start moving forward before the next court date absolutely.
Aphria has some big names behind it as well - I don't see them taking this lightly and they're certainly not new to growing plants used for medicine.

Also curious to see what Tweed does about all their branding - it's so heavy on photos of product and their facility, etc..

Under an order from the Supreme Court of Canada, the federal government must provide patients who use medical marijuana with a safe, secure supply of the drug.

Can someone confirm this part? I'm not as familiar with the case, but I keep hearing about "supply", but this is the first time I've noticed it listed as a "safe, secure supply". Are these adjectives from the court case? If so, they shouldn't be overlooked.

Odd? You are here yapping about MMJ and you know nothing about the case?

well aware of our rights ... Thanks

I know about the case, but I'm not "as familiar" as those of you who have already dissected it.
I've read numerous summaries and responses, but not the actual source material.

Genuinely curious if those words are in there.

Where are all the small time producers that were supposed to be next in line?

Here's what I found. To much to read through to find specific wording. But yes hc has to provide Canadians with a safe secure source for thier meds. That's why pps came into existence amd why we now have lp's. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_history_of_cannabis_in_Canada

Maybe I'm just reading into it too much then, but if the Supreme Court has deemed that the system has to be "secure", than that could also apply to any "alternative" system that took place in 2015. Home gardens...

I speak with some of them from time to time, but nothing is changing.
I keep hearing that they are still waiting on inspections to let them grow, then they still have to get another inspection once they've grown a crop.

i have a feeling the sc will ban grows in buildings where people reside but not our right to grow our own. I see a lot of sheds and garages being built.

Here's hoping - that would definitely be ideal.

The reason I say that is the sc has to balance the needs of the sick and the safety of the general public.

I could live with that.

I agree that they have to and that this may work, but if their concern is security of the product then I doubt household grows would be allowed.
I think It's really going to depend on how much weight they put on "security".

At the same time, LPs like Mettrum are bleeding product back into the market, so security is a joke.
