Hi All,
And this is the scam of the system. Easy-peasy if your GP is on board, but as anduin1 points out, the document never gets to you. That makes you powerless. The original should go to the patient and a copy to the LP. That empowers the patient to shop around or apply for a grow license. I'm running up against this and the options are these;
1. Suck it up and pay the clinic a fee to get your script so you can grow legally
2. Cold call all the General Practitioners in your area (there are hundreds in my area) to see if they are cannabis friendly
3. Grow illegally.
Doesn't seem like a patient friendly system.
Peace.
I imagine that people with means will take the issue to court again. The current system does not give reasonable access to patients if you look at the multi month wait for personal licenses & what seems like the majority of doctors refusing to prescribe it. I'm lucky that where I live there's a clinic that does it for free as part of the provincial health system but i know not all are so fortunate and that's disappointing.
