Truly wonderful headline - here's the details:

>Health Canada clarified the parameters for granting the licence, saying the company is licensed to sell for scientific and medical purposes only.

>"They cannot sell products to the general public," the federal department said.

>Adastra Labs can only sell to other licence holders who have cocaine listed on their licence, namely pharmacists, practitioners, hospitals, or the holder of an exemption for research purposes, Health Canada said.
