Are there any additional types of licences which should be considered?

@Nicke Smith 100% agree.... I will be writing in to state that.... Also need to think about sale and distribution of seeds and trees. It is not covered under retail or cultivation licences.

@Doyle Butterfield Schedule 4 Section 6: A licensee shall only sell the following forms of cannabis or cannabis products— dried cannabis; cannabis oil; fresh cannabis; edible cannabis; cannabis extracts; cannabis topicals; No mention of seeds or small plants.... However, to your penultimate point, I believe edible cannabis should be expanded to include beverages as well.

@Stratton Hatfield furthermore, they need to allow for local distribution and sale of bulk cannabis. Would these be under a manufacturing licence? Becuase it states cultivation licence can only sell with written consent from Minister. So would someone need a Cultivation Licence and a manufacturing licence to be a wholesale provider of ganja to the retail stores?

@Paul Giraud - if they are going to propose this for cannabis, they should require it for all these substances also iMHO.

@Stratton Hatfield I forgot to mention there are not "good people" on both sides of this you have the oppressors and the oppressed. Why on earth would the people who have been wronged in so many ways for so long unjustly, find middle ground between wrong and right and pander to the people who had zero concern about those whose lives were destroyed wrongfully? That is PC at it's worst.

@Lisa Hollis As a cottage industry, I would be looking at people who wish to add to the "consumable collective" the ability to do so (thus the suggestion of some method to effect a fungible standard). Ideally, the retail pricing would be dictated by simple supply and demand, yet affording smaller scale growers some protections against exclusion from markets by larger-scale producers (or from POS establishments). Because of the local shortage of arable land, I suspect most smaller-scale commercial growers would be growing indoors. Humidity levels could be controlled through ventilation through activated-charcoal filtration systems; although illegality not being an issue, regular timed ventilation could be sufficient (assuming no ordinances, etc. against strong scents). I believe the larger outdoor nurseries would be better suited for "organic" growth; possibly for majority-Sativa subtypes also (due to their extended flowering time, and typical "lankier" profile). People with growing knowledge/experience could (theoretically) grow a roomful of Cannabis buds from one plant (theoretically: by training the vegetative growth cycle along a horizontal profile utilizing the FIM and SOG/SCROG techniques. Practically: doing the same or similar with maybe three plants). The method I had outlined previously would entail a vertical growth method using more readily available and less expensive equipment (eg. standard moguls and compact-florescent, low Kelvin bulbs vs. HID HP Sodium bulbs and ballasts [plus the accompanying high capacity ventilation and/or air conditioning to control heat output]). CFL bulbs tend to have an acceptably lower heat output to effect closer placement to growing plants (allowing an amplification of the inverse square law of lumen output at distances less than one foot), while distributing light omnidirectionally (as opposed to LED bulbs [which cost significantly more per bulb, with typical lumen spreads of 150 degrees maximum], or LED strips [costly; usually specially ordered; may be problematic depending on environment]). In my opinion, the more important request to make of Government right now would be to extend this consultative process by about another month...
