Meducation Station
Dedicated to helping the medical cannabis community!
Recreational and Medical Cannabis the difference!
Recreational Vs Medical when purchasing!
Being a Medical patient you have an increasing access to number of benefits ...
-
You can claim medical cannabis on your taxes, as recreational user you can't
Getting better prices on your cannabis purchases as part of the medical community
-
Get more diverse products as a medical cannabis patient compared to the recreational user
As a medical user your rights are different compared to a recreational consumer
You can as a medical user buy cannabis from a federally licensed seller with no more 30-day limitation (so you don't run out of medication supplies)
As far as the limits for public possession it remains the same for authorized patients who are registered with a federally licensed seller or Health Canada:
-
Either less than 150 grams or for dried cannabis a 30-days supply (or equivalent in cannabis products) plus the 30 grams allowed for non-medical use.
-
Medical Cannabis users can grow their own!
As part of being a medical cannabis user you continue to be able to register with Health Canada as a patient to grow your own or dedicate someone to grow for you.
Benefits and improvements are as follow :
-
medical cannabis plants can be cultivated base on the amount of the grams that are prescribed, as recreational user you can only have a maximum of 4 plants per household only in certain provinces
-
Cannabis can be stored in higher amounts depending on your medical prescription
Instead of being the day the medical document signed by the health care provider, the day the registered document is issued is the effected day that you can start growing.
-
Until a renewal decision in made the registration remains valid, if Health Canada has a renewal application before your certificate expires.
