Cannabis card

Not legalisation but for anyone interested in or using cannabis medicinally, a card is being introduced from 1st November and autism is listed as one of the conditions.

  • Cannabis is a class B drug.

    My dealer credits his cancard for making the CPS drop his proosecuiton for having nearly a kilo of the stuff. 

    Sapphire clinic does supply medical buds. (I am told).

     We are gettig legalisation slowly and cautiously, it would appear....

  • the canacard doesnt allow you to legally smoke real canabis.... it only permits use of the CBD oil prescribed by the NHS which is legal anyway so its pointless.

    this does not permit you to buy or take a class A banned drug....

  • Interesting. If it makes people happy and improves quality of life, who cares.

  • but nah in all serioness this why now have gen z self assessing themselves on tiktok or faking autisum just to get away with *** you bring the woke bs up on us too and you screw us all  

  • Your mum said what?

  • That's about as effective as telling people to stop making ill conceived and vacuous comments.

  • Stop milking autism for drugs 

  • Wow!  Why didn't I google that before?

  • Try googling this:

    Is Marijuana the World's Most Effective Treatment for Autism?

  • Cannabis is not for me, although I tried it within my younger days, didn't like the effects. I already feel sleepy enough. 

    I've also tried CBD oil, felt exactly the same as cannabis, apart from not gaining the high. Again for me a waste of time & money. 

    Although each to their own I suppose, what works for some, may not work for others. 

  • hopefully... ;c)

  • I would imagine that the quantities of cannabis would have to be consistent with what you say about your medical use and confirmed by your doctors.  But if you're quite obviously dealing, it won't protect you.  

  • Oh my! You can’t do anything with these cards. They are simply telling the police it’s acceptable use cannabis. But having cannabis is still illegal. If you was prescribed cannabis then it won’t be confiscated, but if it’s In a deal bag,. Be prepared to loose your smoke.  

  • What products can be purchased with this card? Can people abuse this card by buying up too many grams of dried cannabis to use as drugs at parties? Or will the owners of Cannabis Cards be checked for illegal actions and monitor the good and proper use of cannabis-based substances? I buy CBD oil from (Link removed by Mod) which my attending physician showed me. I often have uncontrollable anxiety states, which this oil helps me cope with. After all, cannabis was originally used as a raw material for creating tissues and a nerve-soothing herb. Can I get a Cannabis Card as a Canadian citizen?

  • Street cannabis remains illegal in all its forms.  The card simply protects you in case you're stopped by the police.  It verifies that you're a medical user and the police have been trained about its use.

    For legal medical cannabis you'd still need to go to one of the private cannabis clinics, meet their criteria and buy their prescribed product - usually bud (to be vaped, not smoked) or oil.  They sometimes prescribe capsules but not edibles.  But then you'd have a prescription to prove to the police that it's legal.      

     

  • What kinds of goods can be purchased with this card?

  • I don't think it's specifically for autism because it'd be like suggesting they could treat a neurotype.  However, it IS very relaxing and I use it for anxiety.  Autistic anxiety, I would say, which for me can be off the scale.  

    I'm not saying that all autistic people are necessarily anxious.  But I do find that the effects of living as a minority where our needs are overlooked or minimised and where various traumas can easily accrue from childhood onwards, it's entirely understandable that many of us are pushed towards anxiety.

  • Sorry. I should of checked. I was agreeing
