should be able to grow your own medicine instead a few people are gona profit from it and a lot of people that need it won’t be able to afford it.

This is going to help so many people but how are people on the pension able to purchase this stuff ? Not to mention the system does not have any bulk billed doctor’s which costs almost 120$ per doctor appointment just to get a script or to give them a update. Not mention the waiting time for the TGA approvals and all application fees.. think about the people who need it but can’t work for a full-time wage due to work related injuries or born defects etc and just medically need it. and they have to fork out alot of money to be able to gain this medication, How are they meant to even get into this scheme. I think they need to look into fully legalizing full aspects to be able to grow your own on certain regulations here in australia. That way people can consume and produce on a small scale there own natural medication for " self medication purposes only"
imagine paying thousands for apples
Finally a smart and helpfull government move. Thank you whoever approved this
I don’t suppose I could get directions to the farm? Im asking for a friend.
My dad had stage 4 lung cancer and then 5 brain tumors, he passed away waiting for legal cannabis oil in Australia, it’s an absolute travesty.
Australian government hard on drugs, Australian government join the drugs trade to make money
Too bad most of it will be shipped overseas, and our corrupt TGA will continue pushing us to pills. This will only be allowed as a last resort.
nice the people that sell it get jail time but when government sell it all good ..we need to lookup all the people in government for suggesting this … but then in other hand all the people on centerlink can now get jobs in weed farms
Different strains for different brains
This should be covered under either health insurance or government subsidies and healthcare. These prices are insane!
It’s about time. I must say that Seven News besides Sky are the only news outlets that allow comments on youtube. What are the others afraid of?
Cannabis oil is great haven’t had a seizure since using it
Finally were on the right step, but patients need to be able to grow their own medicine so that they can be sure they know exactly what was used to grow it, theres alot of dodgey legal government cannabis products in America, coz people just after a quick $ and not putting the patients health first
More empty promises to the sick and dying, and the only thing this will achieve is massive profits for the vultures and of course the government,
Cannabis is a harmless plant with thousands of medical uses that should be legal to grow yourself and turn into medication, it’s been done for thousands of years without government or a dealer waiting on his dividend
Medical Cannabis and a Good Diet are a medical necessity for all those of us who have been innocently and ignorantly consuming such hard to avoid Mitochondrial Poisonous Polyunsaturated Vegetable Oils in our diets and got one or more of many more modern thus Metabolically Caused Diseases and CANCERS. These barely existed before about 1900 when industrially manufactured Vegetable Seed Oils and foods started becoming available. You need to exclude all manufactured snacks, takeaways, restaurant fried and manufactured foods to avoid all these vegetable oils. The ideal solution for ultimate healthy longevity is to go fully VEGAN and take Cannabis Supplementation to boost your damaged Endocannabinoid System until you are better (maybe 2 years or so) while getting all vegetable seed extract, typical industrially refined cooking oils out of your diet. You certainly can use some polysaturated animal food-based oil/fat, that is in all animal products if you are not quite so ill or worried about living as long as reasonably possible while remaining perfectly healthy. Best luck from your optimally self reeducated and friendly family Dr David who wants to see you be actually cured of all the modern diseases that are definitely so dietary-based in origin.
Pesticides and canced incoming
How in the hell does it cost 90000 a year
Such a shame that this is being run by a Canadian company – we have enough expertise to establish a 100% Australian owned medicinal cannabis farm. Why on earth are we giving all the profits to Canada? ….oh sorry I forgot corporate and big pharma influence !! And meanwhile in NSW a young man was convicted of growing 3 pot plants!! We live in a crazy upside down world.
HOLLY MOLLY! That’s so large! I want to visit and volunteer to pick those lovelies!
They made us feel like criminals all our lives. Dirty politicians and dirty governments… We the people need a world wide full strike.. cheap marijuana please….
We need more medial help in Melbourne😭
Cool,and the rest,needs are high
Why would you pay 90k a yr for something that literally grows like a weed? Imagine paying 90k a year for dandelions or clover. This is the perfect example of why you shouldn’t let government get too big. Infrastructure and defence is all we need from them, when it costs 90k a year to get medicine you could safely and easily grow yourself, you are not even close to living in a free society.
This has go to be a fucking joke "costs $90,000 a year" absolutely disgusting anyone has to pay that much
Instead of some large company making huge profits off of cannabis why not have Mum and Dad businesses growing to spread the wealth around of this emerging product. With Drug and alcohol testing on the roads and work places why not just legalise pot and Tax its sale to offset the declining revenue from dwindling tobacco and petrol taxes. It’s safer than alcohol or should we just ban all drugs which includes alcohol, coffee, tea etc? As a added point the Australian Government receives 8 billion dollars a year from tobacco taxes from which 250 million is used for cancer related medical treatments that leaves $7.750.000.000 for the government to do with as they wish. I fully realise it’s not as simple as I put it but someone somewhere in Government with two brain cells could come up with a solution so it benefits, not just people who need cannabis for medical reasons but also creating opportunities for small business instead of big pharma taking our money overseas.
Good now how about you use all them stems and seeds to build stuff dont waste it
Grow it smoke it, cost nexted to nothing about from some water and plant feed
Legalise Cannabis Australia, it’s inevitable and overdue, why politics are stopping access is because of lobbyist in Alcohol and Tobacco. Medicinal and recreational it’s call being grown ups. It’s a flowering herb with a multitude of benefits.
very expensive for a plant you can grow for free easily
Getting ready for a future without prohibition. Australia will lead the world in top grade weed hahaha
they started for patience but soon or later will ended up seeing addicts walking like zombie in the streets like america

Its wrong how we made people criminals for this but now theres big money in it . its all fine. Seems like the ones who were persecuted from this should profit not the money men.
When do I START?
We must have marijuana legal in Australia just like other countries.
“Amazing how people need marijuana, I’ve never tried it in my entire life and don’t need it”.
