Vancouver Dispensaries

Post by Lemon Haze »

Hey Everyone

Might be moving to Vancouver in the new year for work. Are the dispensaries there like LA where it's easy to get a prescription? I have been diagnosed with migraines, but just wondering if that will be enough for a dispensary card?

Any fellow Canucks out there with any experience on the Vancouver scene?

Thanks! Yeah that's Canada wide, BC is more liberal I think. There you can use homeopaths, or natural healers as well as doctors. Some are now offering in house doctors like Cali.

Getting excited already! :)

notsofasteddie wrote:The information below may be dated, but it does reflect the bureaucratic process by which one becomes a patient with the legal right to grow, possess, and use medical cannabis. So unless the rules have changed, your eligibility will take some time. As for qualifying medical problems, there's a toll free number where you could ask if migraines are included or once you are in Vancouver it should be easy to find out.

Thank you for your email of January 28, 2012, regarding the Marihuana Medical Access Regulations (MMAR).

The following information is provided in response to the questions posed in your email.

Q1. At what point during the entire application process, assuming all is done by the book, does a patient have the legal right to grow, possess and/or use medical cannabis?

A1. An applicant is not authorized to possess and/or licenced to produce marihuana until his/her application for an authorization to possess and/or licence to produce is approved. The valid issue and expiration date is provided on the authorization and/or licence document that is issued to clients upon approval of their application. The possession and production of marihuana without a valid authorization and/or licence may be subject to law enforcement action.

Q2. Can a patient legally do all the above at the moment the medical doctor signs the application forms, or when the licence is issued by Health Canada and received by the patient?

A2. No. An applicant is not legally authorized to possess and/or licenced to produce marihuana for medical purposes until his/her authorization and/or licence document is approved and issued by Health Canada. Medical practitioners are not authorized to approve the use of marihuana for medical purposes; the signature on Form B “Medical Practitioner’s Form” is required as part of a complete application to demonstrate that the application is supported by a medical practitioner.

If you have any additional questions or concerns, please contact the Marihuana Medical Access Program at mmap-pamm@hc-sc.gc.ca or toll-free at 1-866-337-7705.

Nice, be nice to grow my own. Maybe they'll finally legalize in the next few years.
