Choosing Your Licensed Producer
Your Licensed Producer (LP) is who you will buy your product from. Each producer has their own pros and your Cannabis Coach will be able to help you choose one that is a good fit based on your needs.
A few things to consider when choosing your Licensed Producer are:
- Quality of product
- Availability of medical products
- Customer experience
- Compassion pricing
- Consistency in medications
You can find the full list of Licensed Producers in Canada through the Health Canada website by clicking here.
