Media enquiries
OTTAWA – Greenleaf Medicinals of British Columbia, is voluntarily recalling one batch (Purple Kush, Batch PK-10-20-13) of marijuana for medical purposes. The recall is due to issues with the company’s production practices which were identified during an inspection by Health Canada and may impact the product.
Greenleaf Medicinals is instructing clients to immediately discontinue use of any marijuana from this shipment which they may still have remaining in their possession. The company has also informed Health Canada that they are presently working with other licensed producers to find a supply of marijuana for the impacted clients. Health Canada is currently monitoring Greenleaf Medicinal’s recall.
Producers of marijuana for medical purposes are subject to compliance and enforcement measures similar to those in place for other producers of controlled substances. They must meet strict security, control and reporting requirements, and they are regularly inspected.
Dried marijuana is not an approved drug or medicine in Canada. Possession and use of marijuana remains illegal in Canada unless authorized under the regulations with the support of a doctor or nurse practitioner.

Maybe someone found out it was MMAR weed and it was better to "recall" it then get sued for false advertising.
I have smoked a lot of Purple Kush that should have been recalled! Now these guys have a license to sell the same junk to sick people, this system is fucked. We need all out legalization, it is the only way to fix this.

I just want to know...if a product has to be tested prior to shipping what could possibly constitute a product recall? I don't think that is asking too much. Patients have been using this, they have a right to know. If there is a product recall for food we are informed of the reasons, why not with marijuana?
What would be good chefboy is some honesty and transparency.
I don't see anything that is funny or childish here.

jmo but the checks and balances should catch things like this before they release it as 'Medicine'.
did they jump the gun a bit to profit on $5 gm.

Not sure about ragin, my wife was going to join Greenleaf on the 24th and it is a concern that they may have unsafe practices
whatever they may be. Some people and there side remarks, its funny and childish to be concerned of a LP you are about to join who now has no product now and you are suppose to trust your decision with a recall before they even get off the ground.
CannaManager, do some research and it's trial and error. some of these LP's won't be around in a year...The best will survive just like in high school when the most successful dealer was ALWAYS THE GUY WITH THE BEST STUFF
it will take time be patient, this is a new program
peace
Chefboy
Does everyone realize that LP's will be testing for pesticides...and other toxins in OUR WEED
so i have one question to pose for the board??????????????????
so you are an MMAR and you get a disease(White Fly, Spider Mite, Powdery Mildew)
I grow i know it happens ALL THE TIME....how do you deal with YOUR CROP
spray the fucker right, with whatever works....ummm yea
and then voila....we have toxins in our weed
so all these bickering about how the new MMPR program is not good and how it has taken the medicine away from the sick( WHICH I AGREE TOTALLY IT HAS)
but i never EVER HEAR of the positives of the program
such as, testing for pesticides and toxins, actual clinical research on cannabinoads and how they work in the human body,
umm what else, proper storage of marijuana, proper growth of marijuana, more genetics in the gene pool( getting rid of all the KUSH crap)
anyone else want to add
any pluses or do you all just want to talk about the injunction
how about the fact that pharmaceutical companies are making our beloved plant
ACTUAL MEDICINCE
no lets talk about how we can't grown anymore
see why i say
you are all childish..I am done with my rant
i can't handle the short cited behaviour in here
peace

chefboy...statements you make like "you are all childish" is childish in itself.
LPs are good for patients who can't or don't want to grow their own medicine.
LPs might be good for a push on getting health care coverage for the medicine through lobbying efforts with the government and insurance companies.
LPs probably will expand our knowledge of our medicine.
LPs will be providing a "cleaner, safer" medicine than some current growers. Some ( I have a small grow and don't have bugs and mildew issues, and don't need to use pesticides).
LPs should help in the push to finally make our medicine fully legal.
So there are some positives with LPs. Patients, and for that sake anyone should be able to grow marijuana legally imo.
chefboy, why not address my previous post? Why not try and establish an intelligent dialogue versus your one sided, antagonistic approach you so often take?
