In an effort to build a comprehensive profile of medical cannabis in Montana, we want to identify all of the potential issues and rational solutions. We will be supporting this with any and all available documentation.
Please use this area to make suggestions of topics for discussion. Your participation will help us to develop a better guide.
Solutions for Montana, in conjunction with the Montana Medical Growers Association, is seeking your input regarding how the potential changes in the Montana Medical Marijuana Initiative will affect you. Have you lost your caregiver in the federal raids? How has this affected you? What impact has this had on your medical condition?

Issue #4-Out of state patients
Montana has a reciprical agreement for medical cannabis patients from other states. Since caregivers may only serve the patients registered to them and patients with out of state medical cards do not have a designated caregiver, what is the best way to modify the law so that is it clear to everyone how to serve this patient?
Issue #3-Free Enterprise
Do you favor a few large growers in the State supplying all patients or the free enterprise system we have now where the market place determines which business and business model flourishes?
Issue #2-Sharing Medicine
Recently a patient in Missoula obtained medicine legally from their caregiver and, shortly after leaving the store front, began to medicate in the car. At some point, the patient passed his medicine to non patients. He was charged with a felony to distribute illegal drugs. It is illegal for licensed patients to share their medicine with anyone who is not licensed. How can we get this message to patients?
Issue #1-Patient Licensing
There is a concern that individuals are receiving their MT medical cannabis license but they may not have a qualifying condition. What is the best way to address this issue?
