MuskokaPharma Inc., which is proposing Muskoka\u2019s first and only legal medical marijuana growing operation, finalized the deal on the purchase of Tembec\u2019s former flooring plant May 31, 2016.<\/p>\n<p>The 40,000 sq. foot building now sits on 10 acres of land and company principals are planning to add an additional 25,000 sq. feet to the building, once their final approvals are in place.<\/p>\n<p>President of MuskokaPharma Ltd. Allan Holman said if all goes according to schedule, the company is hoping to produce its first test crop for Health Canada late next year. He said part of the company\u2019s management team is in place and they\u2019ve also hired a pharmacist and master grower. Security checks are currently being conducted and the next stage, before building approvals are sought and construction begins, is Health Canada\u2019s final review.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFinal review is not a really difficult stage because we\u2019ve been through the main hurdles with Health Canada,\u201d explained Holman.  He said hiring will take place in stages and the company is projecting the creation of roughly one hundred jobs in year three of its operation.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>We want to hire locally of course. The pharmacist is from this area, the grower is from this area. Most of the management and the people who are going to be operating the business are from this area, and we like that. There\u2019s an amazing talent pool in the region.<cite>MuskokaPharma Ltd. President Allan Holman<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Whether related businesses will set up shop in the area is hard to say. Holman thinks that depends on what Ottawa\u2019s legislative plan looks like when it comes to legalizing marijuana. \u201cThat\u2019s coming next spring we\u2019re told and right now dispensaries are illegal. They\u2019re just not allowed because the drug is illegal.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Currently marijuana can only be legally sold by a licensed producer. The way it would work said Holman is medical doctors would have to issue prescriptions to their patients, who would in turn fill their prescriptions online. \u201cWe would take the order over the Internet and then ship to them through Canada Post or by courier. It\u2019s a federally controlled program so we can sell anywhere in Canada.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said the reception has been warm so far, in fact he has yet to hear any negative comments about the proposed operation. In terms of the politics surrounding the growing of marijuana, Holman suspects the heat will be turned up as the Liberals push to legalize it. \u201cI assume it\u2019s going to go through at some point and I think that\u2019s what the majority of Canadians want,\u201d he said, citing recent polls on its legalization.<\/p>\n<p>Asked how the legalization of marijuana might impact his company, Holman predicted MuskokaPharma Inc. would become more of a wholesaler, selling to places like the LCBO or pharmacy chains, depending on the delivery model Ottawa pushes through. He said the number of customers would increase very quickly \u201cso that means more good reliable product will be necessary.\u201d He said marijuana produced by a licensed producer is controlled and tested. \u201cYou know exactly what you\u2019re getting and you can keep ordering that same product month in, month out and it\u2019ll always be the same,\u201d said Holman, adding that consistency is important to medicinal users of cannabis.<\/p>\n<p>Clients will include those with a host of ailments such as arthritis, rheumatism, chronic pain, and cancer, people with back injury, and those with addictions to opiates who want to get off those drugs as a means of controlling pain, explained Holman. \u201cOpiates are addictive and they\u2019re harming a lot of people in very, very serious ways.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>MuskokaPharma Ltd.\u2019s plan is to first produce six different strains of marijuana and eventually move to the production of 12. Holman said there is a company out West that produces 48 strains. \u201cWe think that\u2019s pretty ridiculous and not necessary. I think it\u2019s a marketing ploy. We\u2019re focusing on the medical side of the business and we feel at the beginning our six strains and then going to 12 will be sufficient.\u201d Their pharmacist on staff is legally allowed to give advice about the various strains and their effect, said Holman.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"modern-quote full\"><p>So you can call in to a medical marijuana producer and discuss your ailment with a pharmacist and they are, by law, allowed to discuss that with you and then we can make a recommendation as to what you should try. <cite>Holman<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Holman said doctors are also becoming much more aware of marijuana\u2019s medical benefits. \u201cThere are producers out there right now that are actually calling on doctors and they are educating doctors as to the effects of marijuana and where it can be used, what type of illnesses it helps. I think every day doctors are growing more aware of the positive aspects of marijuana.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Don&#8217;t miss out on Doppler!
