On Nov. 1, 2010, Pharmacist Colin Holyk from Kerrisdale Pharmacy resubmitted his application for a “licensed dealer permit” to Health Canada in order to import MDMA for our Canadian MDMA/PTSD study. The application was originally submitted in September 2009. It took Health Canada nine months to respond with several questions about what activities the pharmacist would be conducting in order to be a licensed dealer. It took our team some time to clarify the Canadian regulations, after which we resubmitted the application. We look forward to Health Canada’s response, and will do whatever is required in order to start this long anticipated study.
