Medicinal Marijuana when deemed medicinal is NOT an excuse to smoke pot. Our goal is to alleviate concerns and misconceptions, and enable people to make their own decisions on this very controversial topic. Fact is, pain management and quality of life in cancer patients must be a priority.
Mackie Research:
The Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR), overseen by Health Canada, authorizes three key activities: (i) the possession of dried marijuana (or oil) for medical purposes by eligible patients, who have the support of an authorized healthcare practitioner;
(ii) the production of dried marijuana or oil by licensed producers;
(iii) the sale and distribution of dried marijuana or oil by licensed producers to eligible patients. By strictly regulating the medical marijuana industry, MMPR helps ensure a safe and consistent product.
