Welcome
to health Canada, health Canada is now legally give people to obtain a license
so that you can now produce marijuana in your home. In April 2018, health
Canada passed new resolutions that people now could grow marijuana in their
small facility of marijuana which could be maximum of 100 m. sq or maximum of
2153 square ft. Before only people will large facility and huge space only
could grow marijuana (Like more than 10, 000 sq. ft of space). This move is
actually for those who want used to grow marijuana illegally and now got a
chance to produce it legally. As you know there are two kinds of license which
is – 1) standard marijuana cultivation license and 2) Micro cultivation
marijuana license. With Help of micro license program people of Canada now
would be able produce marijuana legally within in own space.
However,
the micro licensing systems comes with many procedure, terms, conditions, rules
etc. Those are called same as standard license program so I am only telling you
the important ones here. The points that you must follow while you are ready to
grow micro growing system of marijuana and those are following –
1.
Infrastructure -
The grow must not be larger than 200 square meter or 2153 square feet. If the
grow room is more than this apply for standard license program. Doing so is
violation of health Canada policy. The health Canada does not define the which
process you will use while cultivating the marijuana. But health Canada gave
quantity i.e. 600 Kg or marijuana processing each year ( It is total amount
that is in dried , 600 Kg in case of oil , cannabis oil , marijuana seeds etc
form) . The health Canada will issue one license for only one site. If you have
multiple sites you need to apply for those marijuana license. You cannot
produce marijuana in the same land you are living. You need to build building
separately and then apply for license.
2.
Condition -
No ready to build facility will get cannabis license. You need to be preparing
yourself and your facility so that it would help you and your company to get
license. You will install quality control, quality marijuana processing, good
manufacturing practices, and good production practices. You need to show to
marijuana inspection that everything is ready and just require license for
plantation.
3.
Security -
The very important part that health Canada takes care of is security system and
this is very important. There are matters like – installing hardware and software,
CCTV cameras to track people 24 X 7 and also processing waste materials of
marijuana. Health does not do any compromise with security. It will come to you
daily after you got license for inspection of the marijuana infrastructure
built. Health Canada also wants to know how you are selling your marijuana
products, where you are selling your products. They will make sure that this
marijuana is not going to wrong hand.
4.
Plan
of action - Health Canada will give you license for
both cultivation and processing. The both kind of license is also required for
analytical testing, research works as well. Health Canada developed a cannabis
tracking system for that. Health Canada also states that the investor or the
owner of the cannabis micro growing system owner should perform an organization
security plan, which entail outlining security plan, infrastructure, operating procedures,
hardware & software requirements & their functionalities. They also
need to produce an organizational chart which will produce them with visual
representation of how authority, responsibility and information are to flow
within the chart. It would also show accounts, finance, marketing, production
and production techniques. The organizational chart will also show any product
movement beyond minimal amounts, setting operational procedures, including
standard operating procedures, sensitive security or business knowledge, financial
controls, including but not limited to the ability to enter into contracts for
goods and services.
5.
Application
process – 1st of all you need to decide
what type of application you are going to apply for. As said before there are
three kind of license actually – a) standard cultivation b) Micro Cultivation
c) Nursery. I have discussed the 1st types before and now about
nursery. It is even smaller place (mainly for only personal needs) where you
need to have facility no more than 50 meter square. If you are making/
producing cannabis on a large scale then you need to do standard processing, in
case of micro cultivation do it in micro processing. And form those you could
easily manufacture cannabis products. Then you can manufacture cannabis oil
form that, you could donate, sale, export marijuana only for medical purposes.
You can do research cannabis; you could also have marijuana for analytical
testing purposes as well. License holders can conduct research and development
activities within their authorized licensed activities. If the license holder
wishes to conduct research and development activities outside of their
authorized license activities, they must apply for a separate research license.
Those who are the corporate people, they need to go
through a different kind of licensing process. This is actually applicable for
partnership firm, co-operatives and corporation type firms. While you create a
corporate profile you need to register with health Canada and then create ID
for it. But while you are building a corporate profile, you need more
documentation like – The full legal name of the organization , the
incorporation number , Business address and contact details , Controlling
organizations (noted as “Parent Corporation” in the CTLS) if applicable ,
certificate of incorporation or partnership agreement . In such cases
organization is too required. The organizational chart must say the following
things - a) must demonstrate the relationships between senior positions within
the organization and the various controlling individuals or entities, if
applicable. b) Must include all names and titles of senior
management positions such as directors and officers of the organization and any
controlling individual or entity, if applicable. Does not need to include the
site-specific organizational information (e.g., the site head of security,
master grower, QAP). This specific organizational information is required as
part of a specific application and is to be included in the OSP.
