Over the next few months, the Medical Cannabis Authority (MCA) will provide $1.3 million in assistance to traditional marijuana growers who have been licenced to transition into the legal medical cannabis industry.
The MCA will also provide educational, health, and rehabilitative support in the sum of $200,000 to assist drug users who have a dependency on drugs.
Further, the government will carry out a land distribution plan on over 200 acres of land on the northwestern part of St. Vincent for traditional workers and growers who are transitioning to medicinal cannabis.
