Cannabis Licensing
Prepare for direct-to-patient cannabis sales.
A sale for medical purposes licence allows a holder to sell cannabis directly to patients or their designated persons. This licence class has unique operational requirements around patient registration, medical document verification, order handling, fulfilment, and record-keeping that differ significantly from other cannabis licence types.
The two models — with possession and without possession — each carry different infrastructure and procedural obligations. A with-possession model requires storage, inventory management, and shipping capabilities. A without-possession model operates through supply agreements with other licence holders but still needs compliant order management and patient records systems.
Medical sales operations sit at the intersection of cannabis regulation and patient privacy. The application must demonstrate how patients will be registered, how medical documents will be verified and stored, how orders will be received and fulfilled, and how records will be maintained in compliance with the Cannabis Regulations and applicable privacy law.
Choosing between the with-possession and without-possession models is a business and operational decision with significant implications for facility requirements, capital needs, and day-to-day procedures. The application documentation must reflect the chosen model accurately.
