Canada's Cannabis Act 2018: Here's a link to the complete text to our new federal act of parliament, which as of October 17, 2018, finally legalizes weed @ GC.CA
Handy Guide: Here are the different regulations that will come into effect across Canada, in each province, as the Canadian Cannabis Act takes effect on October 17th. They effect sales, consumption, cultivation and age limit etc. etc. etc. @ Leafly
Cannabis Offences: Here's a handy chart explaining what you can be charged with, under our new act and the penalties, courtesy Brazeau Sellar Law @ FB
NORML.CA: Entrepreneur/ Activist Abi Roach, a well known force in our local Toronto cannabis community has been appointed national chair! Congratulations Abi @ Cannad
Cannabis Activism Now: Here's how some of Canada's leading cannabis activists are reacting to the Trudeau government's unclear, arbitrary, and very repressive legalization act come October 17th. Think Prohibition 2.0 @ Global
Scheer lunacy!
Canadian Conservative Party Leader Andrew Scheer won't commit to keeping pot legal if his party wins next year's 2019 federal election. Well, the answer to this one is very easy -don't vote for them then! @ CTV
Reality Check: How realistic are Andrew's claims he'll reverse legalization? Not very, but the threat of the devil's weed has long served well to help fire up his social conservative base. Maybe not once the big bucks start to roll into business profits and federal coffers? More @ Global
Flip Flop Man: Will he or won't he re-criminalize pot? Only his hair dresser knows for sure. Hey! See below! Stateside progressives rocked the US midterms by getting out the cannabis voters. How might we do that here? To take Justin to task for Prohibition 2.0 too? Or make the NDP show some real activist backbone and spine? More on Andrew's sheer BS @ NP
Think Middle Class: Trudeau's plans for legalization were very much formulated with Canada's middle class values in mind, in this interesting piece @ NewState
Counterculture Rising: Even ye venerable New York Times is writing about the Canadian government's failure to shut down the so called "black market" in Canada with it's legalization plans aka Prohibition 2.0. Truth be told, legalization resulted from the largest, most sustained peaceful civil disobedience uprising in Canadian history. It's as much a social, cultural, economic and lifestyle movement as a political one. Whether our police and politicos want to admit or not, they've lost the war on pot. Big time. No if ands or buts. Sure, they can create as many stupid new prohibitive laws and regulations as they want. But we didn't follow them before. Why would they think that we'll follow them now? All they have created is a huge legal mess. Continue to disobey, as necessary! No justice = no peace! Stay tuned! The good fight's not yet over! More @ NYT
High Expectations: Canada's legalization rollout falls flat. So far it's failing to impress @ Red
Weed Shortage Ahead: Of course, Trudeau's hamstrung, LP's [licensed producers] of corporate, weed aren't able to keep up with the huge Canadian demand for bud, come legalization. Duh. Thank god for Weed Map, and our flourishing indie dispensaries and delivery services. More @ BloomB
No Fun: Yeah, it's official, in case you didn't guess. The shortage of legal pot could last for years @ Global
Seedy! Very Seedy! Okay. Pots Legal. Cultivation too. So how come we can't find any seeds? Legally, that is, from our government LP's .... Just what the heck is going on?!? @ VSun
Ontario Premier Ford can do good work when he sticks to things that he knows, which isn't much. So it should come as no surprise that our former hash dealer turned provincial premier has thankfully turned the Ontario weed monopoly upside down and created an open pot market in its place. Well done. Sure, there's nonsense galore! And it doesn't even nearly get Dougie off the hook with all his other neo-conster BS [see Teacher Free Speech news y Views]. But let's count our blessings for a moment or two, before we resume the good fight. Here's what you can and can't legally do in Ontario as of October 17th @ ON.CA Read the full text of "Bill 36", the Ford government's "Cannabis Statute Law Amendment Act 2018" @ OLA Here's a link to Bill 174, the outgoing Wynne government's Cannabis Act, which it now changes and amends @ OLA
Yes, Smoking: You can smoke pot in Ontario just about anywhere you can smoke tobacco, except near a playground, school, or in your boat or car, so even on the sidewalk is okay @ iPol @ CBC
December 17th: That's the date when Ontario dispensaries can finally apply for a legal licence to open April 1st 2019, if they haven't been busted for selling weed since Oct. 17th, 2018 ... sigh .... on and on it goes! The latest? One can own up to 75 shops. They must be at least 150 meters from a school. Hours are 9 am to 1 pm. Customers must be aged 19+. More @ Vice @ CTV
Showdown: Ontario's small, indie dispensaries must close now if they wish to go legit later on in April, but who can afford that? @ CBC
Look! Up in the sky .... It's ... It's ... It's ...?!?
Devil In The Details: I've warned on many occasions that Premier Ford is a nincompoop. Just plain full o' shit. Sure, he talks a damn good game on an open pot market but in reality it's just been one screw up after another, to wit @ Vice
Chief of Busts: Seems Ford's unelected Chief of Staff was calling around trying to get Toronto police to bust any dispensaries that were open on October 17th. He wanted to show photos of people in handcuffs on legalization day. Get this -The premier's office claims they are only "protecting the community". Know that Premier Druggie Fraud is not our friend!!! Nuff said @ Toronto
Ontario Premier Druggie Fraud: Sure Doug said he'll look into allowing private dispensaries, but with the October 17th almost upon us, but there are still absolutely no new details yet. Nor have the previous Wynne government's plans for a government weed monopoly actually been replaced with any new laws or regulations for moving forward. Confusion and uncertainty reigns supreme across the province. City officials and law enforcement claim that they don't know what to do @ Global
LP Stores: Ontario's hamstrung licensed pot producers, who've done everything they were told, can now only open one retail outlet, no more, certainly not a chain @ BNN
LP Woes: Druggie Ford's deals in launching Ontario cannabis retail stores for nearly 6 months after October 17th, means some of our LP's are taking the ex-hash dealer turned Ontario Premier to court over a federal $82 million levy and lost revenues @ Globe
LP Snitches: Corporate Canopy Growth and Tweed are busy lobbying Ottawa to shut down Canada's thriving underground mom and pop dispensary market so that they can claim it all for themselves. Nothing new here but watch this get real nasty! To be fair, they did as they are told, but the government has tied their hands behind their back, as legalization approaches, and quite frankly, for the short term, they are screwed, unless police can succeed in shutting down the open market and eliminating any competition. Don't gamble on it! You might not want to buy too many stocks just yet, if you are so inclined @ Globe
Better Call Cary: A lot of tokers are going to be very, very disappointed to learn that the condo or apartment building where you live has banned pot smoking, despite legalization. Cannabis lawyer Caryma Sa'd helped us successfully fight the ban in my building, from a medical cannabis angle, but you better get hold of her asap. This issue is going to be real biiiiiiiig, and a right royal pain in the ass during the daze ahead @ AD
Pot Ban: Can a landlord actually ban smoking and growing pot in a rental building?!? Gets more dicey from a medical cannabis perspective, but otherwise, here are the laws across Canada @ CTV
Hot Box Hard Times: Many Canadian will be surprised when they wake up October 17th and learn that cannabis smoking, though now legal, will actually be banned in many apartments and condos, not to mention out on the street, or in the park etc. etc. etc. So where to go out to party and smoke? Across Canada, the prohibition laws against your friendly neighbourhood cannabis lounge's remain strictly in place, pretty much wherever you go. So congratulations! Now you can possess weed but have nowhere you can smoke it. Welcome to Canadian legalization! More @ TStar
Reefer Madness 1.0: Cannabis is legal in Canada but sadly, the negative stigma remains deeply entrenched. After nearly a century of reefer madness many popular misconceptions exist. The public desperately needs to be brought up to speed through proper educational initiatives. Sadly, these are largely lacking. As a result, many folks still fear the "devil's weed". That makes our everyday social encounters very difficult for many mainstream tokers, including those in the professional fields. A new activism is required. A public school teacher, among others, speaks out @ Globe
And you thought with legalization folks would just fuck off and leave us alone ....?!?
PC's Bare Their Fangs: Doug Ford's Ontario PC's are threatening to blacklist any dispensaries that are open for business come October 17th. Like the landlord, they will also face huge fines! Here's the situation in Hamilton Ontario @ HSpec
BC Crackdown: There will only be one legal pot shop open for the whole of British Columbia come October 17th. The BC government is threatening to bust anyone else who's open for business. Otherwise you need to buy government licensed crud online from them and wait for Canada Post, who might be on strike, to deliver it. Sound crazy? A new police unit has even been set up to carry out the dirty deed. And you thought things were bad before legalization? Watch out! More @ Global
Political Suicide: Here's why the dispensary crackdown in BC might well not work as planned @ VIA
Not So Higher Ed: Canadian colleges and universities are moving quickly to ban smoking before cannabis is legalized. Note: These are complete indoor and outdoor bans! @ CTV
High School High: Or a real low rather .... a black Toronto Catholic high school student is suspended because he smells like pot. Sigh! Alas! Let the bullshit begin @ Star
Mail Strike: Government LP [Licensed Producer] Canopy Growth worries that an impending Canada wide mail strike will drive medical cannabis patients, not to mention recreational users, to the countries flourishing underground cannabis market. What?!? That's how most of us are already mostly buying our weed! Just think: The Ontario's PC's under Premier Ford will only allow government licensed mail order sales come October 17th. Just watch to see how quickly the government's ham fisted legalization plans crashes off the rails into chaos, across Canada, if the posties walk. A divine comedy! Duh @ Globe
CFAMM: Don't Tax Medicine: Canadians For Fair Access to Medical Marijuana provide an easy way to petition your provincial and federal MPP/MP's to stop the prohibitive and discriminatory tax on medical cannabis prescriptions. Do it in seconds online @ CFAMM
Moving the Movement: Share your medical cannabis experiences since legalization. There're still lots of special problems for us that aren't being properly addressed. Medical access. Driver pullovers. The negative stigma and lack of public education. On and on it goes. Let's increase awareness @ MTM
Med Pot Backlash: The CMA [Canadian Medical Association], in trying to protect it's doctors against the current legal and medical uncertainties of prescribing weed, recommends eliminating Canada's medical cannabis regime, and simply lumping patients in with Canada's recreational pot smokers to fend for our own, come October 17th. Medical cannabis activists quickly speak out against their short sightedness Even the CNA [Canadian Nursing Association] strongly disagrees with the CMA. Fortunately, the Trudeau government decides to not take the CMA's advice, for now at least, but it's best to always remain vigilant, as you can see @ Leafly and @ Huff @ CBC
Surete Du Quebec announces that a new Quebec police squad has been formed to crack down on weed dealers after legalization. The goal? To strictly protect the government corporate weed monopoly! Great shades of BC! More @ MTLB
No Cannabis Leafs Allowed: Quebec has banned retailers from selling or giving away anything with a cannabis leaf shown on it. But is that constitutional?!? Arguably, it limits free expression. They'll also need to prove it's harmful enough to warrant such a law. If so, then why aren't they going after beer and ciggies too? @ Huff
Canada-US Border Patrol: A well known, alleged, former Canadian hash dealer makes it across the US border just fine. There's no problemo. That's despite widespread fears anyone that who was associated with drugs will be hereto barred entry. Eh?!? Who wuz it??? Why Ontario Premier Druggie Fraud, that's who, ostensibly on his way to the US to fight Trump's NAFTA plans. Power does have it's privileges eh? @ Vice
IN THE NEWS
US Government's Not-So-Secret War On Cannabis: A news leak reveals the Trump administration's MPCC [Marijuana Policy Co-ordination Committee] is going to try to thwart both the positive cannabis messaging and successful state legalization drives across the USA, by spreading lots of fake news stories, or as we used to say "lies", about our favourite weed. Hello Reefer Madness 2.0 @ Buzz
Flopping Bigly: Trump, with an eye on the polls, might not even support the plan. Plus the cat is now out of the bag about the MPCC's nefarious plot. Here's more on why their fake news strategy will fail @ Motley
Election High: US Democrats, also with an eye to this fall's mid term elections, are cautiously supporting legalization across the US, to get out the progressive vote against Trump and the GOP @ Politico
Cannabis Rocks The US Midterm Vote: State referendums legalize recreational cannabis in Michigan. Likewise medical cannabis will now be legal in Utah and Missouri. Ohio and Wisconsin slowly inch forward, with reforms being set in motion too. Pot stocks feel the love, move higher. Well done our fellow yankee friends and pot fiends! @ Benz More details @ Esquire
"Green Wave" or "Pot Beats Politicians": What a great way to get outlet progressive vote! In many cases, our lowly weed got more votes than the winning candidates up for election! Lotsa pro cannabis politicians, mostly Dems, also won big time. Unlike some well known GOP reefer madmen, including former House Rules Committee Chair Rep Pete Sessions [R-TX], who's political reign of error went up in smoke instead, come election night. More @ MM @ Leafly
Weeds In The Congressional Swamp: With Nancy Pelosi so far still refusing to guarantee a pot vote in the Democratic run house, Rep Earl Blumenauer [D-OR] plans an end run. Public support for legalization is high, high high, but what then of the beer soaked GOP controlled senate? @ RS @ RS
North Dakota Votes No: A recreational cannabis referendum was defeated even though medical cannabis is legal in the state. Conservative critics seriously outspent the pot progressives, who weren't sold on the referendum terms for legalization anyway. Still, it seems this ain't over yet! @ Forbes
Cannabis Vote Project: Find out the various candidates stand on legalization, where you live, and vote accordingly this fall @ CVP
5 Worst: For starters, here are 5 well known GOP and Democratic House Reps who's "policy" on legalization really sucks @ Forbes
Uruguay #1: In 2013 Uruguay became the first country in the world to legalize pot. It sells for $1.40 a gram, or you can grow up to 480 grams yourself, or as a part of a growing club, each year. Quite predictably, US the nation's US banking interest's are not impressed @ CNN
Toking In Nigeria? As they say "Igbo, ganja or weed for Nigeria dey but a full everywhere." Confused? More specifically, "Nigeria no be Canada." Or in other words, you're looking at 15 years in jail even for a little boo. That's if your lucky! More @ BBC
South Africa #3: As far as legalization goes, South Africa now joins Uruguay and Canada in the world leadership department. It's high court has overturned the countries cannabis laws prohibiting adults from possessing it for their personal use @ BBC
Thailand? Cambodia? Vietnam? Damn they got a lotta fine weed! It's steeped in the counties history, culture .... and yet illegal. Except for medical cannabis in Thailand. Sure. You might well find it openly sold in restaurants and bars but ... but ... but the local authorities just love to very selectively bust your foreign ass, so be aware @ IS
China Weed: Did you know that China grows half the world's weed? That they have been secretly raving to corner the world market? More @ Civilized
GREEN MARKETING
Welcome to the OCS [Ontario Cannabis Store] Website! It''s the largest government run cannabis shop in the world. Also, for now, the only legal way to buy weed in our province, until next April. Or else, you can illegally buy it just about everywhere else .... @ BoC @ iPol @ City
Hacked: Canadian Post admits a info hack has leaked personal info on 45,000 cannabis customers from the OCS @ CTV
It Gets Worse: Seems the OCS is getting it's different strains of weed mixed up. Mislabelling the THC count too! Marking it up. Way up. Duh! Not nice! @ CBC
Mouldy Pot! Bugs Too?!? Redecan recalls thousands of grams of it's B.E.C pot from the trouble plagued OCS after reports of mould. Buyers claim that they were finding "little black specks" in it too, but the official government licensed producer denies they are "dead bugs" .... Bleeech! @ BloomB
Mandatory Cannabis Testing For Pesticide Active Ingredients -Requirements: This one's sure to become a golden mouldy! Here's the long awaited Government of Canada guidelines for testing our weed @ Gov.Ca
OCS -The Oral or Genital Way: Can you imagine this kinda mix up happening at your friendly, local, indie dispensary?!? Cringe big time here: Our government run OCS has been marketing a cannabis "genital spray" as an "oral product" to unsuspecting first time weed buyers. Of course, as one wag has argued, it could end up in your mouth anyway ... @ CTV
Big Dougie -Big Plans?!?
Price Drop: Get this -Legalization could ultimately result in a huge drop, if not a collapse, in the price of your weed. As more and more is grown and sold, it becomes just another commodity. Howzabout $30 ounces?!? Anybody? More @ Leafly
Price Watch: Here are the top 10 sativa's from Canada's licensed producers. The price range? $8-9.67 a gram, plus shipping. The THC count? 13.8-19%. Hmmmm. Hey! Don't lose your dealer's number anytime soon! @ Hmed
Legal Weed Sucks: Pot consumers in New Brunswick are finding legal weed costs too much too in the government stores. Matter of fact, the first Main Street Moncton customer left without even buying any @ CBC
Pot Tourism: Changes to Ontario's Cannabis Act will help pot tourism and the hospitality industry blossom across our province under legalization. For starters, guests will be able to toke in a boutique hotel room or B+B @ MBD
Sisters Got The Power: Black women face a lot of racial and sexist discrimination, subtle and otherwise, in participating in the cannabiz industry. With legalization spreading across Canada and the UDS, the stakes are high, but they are going for it anyway @ Essence
"Old Boys Club" or "O' Brave New World": The boardrooms of Canada's top licensed cannabis companies are ... guess what ... still very old school and dominated by men @ Forbes
Summary -Cannabis Licence Management Guide: Here's the official word from the Government of Canada, in case you want to apply @ Gov.Ca
High Society Chef Reena Rampersaad explains how the sexual stereotyping works, at the grassroots level, even when we might not mean it or are aware that we are doing it, like in her business @ Flare
Misogyny + Weed: Seems our sisters of colour are not alone with some of their concerns. Is the cannabiz community headed towards it's very own "Me Too" moment?! Here's how to spot if your business is at risk to hopefully, as concerned and caring cannabis activists, safely level the sexist player field before the situation explodes. Certainly, we can do better than this! @ BigBud
Cannabis Advocate/ Entrepreneur Lisa Campbell turns her talents to developing Canada's blossoming cannabis hospitality sector, as the new CEO of Lifford Cannabis Solutions. Yay Lisa @ GO
Ethnoracial Pot: An Ontario study of a student's ethnic and racial background shows Asian youth are less likely to smoke pot @ Eenet
Chronic? Contrary to popular misconceptions, much more scientific research is definitely needed! The final verdict is still actually out on whether chronic cannabis use in male teens is really linked to any later mental and physical medical issues, as this study shows @ NW Same with depression and lung cancer too @ SciD
Millennials' Toke: The next generation increasingly prefers pot over booze. Perhaps there's hope for us all yet? @ MW
Karma Cup 2018: A splendid time was guaranteed for all. What a vendors market too! Read my blog series! Here's a recap of the winners @ Dankr
Karma Cup Snitch: Seems a certain government LP couldn't stand the Karma Cup competition during the TIFF [Toronto International Film Festival]. So they got the Adelaide St. West location shut down after Day 1. Drat? Foiled! It reopened on Church Street, business as usual on time the next day. Ha! More @ TLeaf
Legacy 420: The classic, indigenous, pot superstore continues to pack us into the Tyendinaga Mohawk Reserve outside Belleville Ontario. By the way, there's also dozens of more dispensary's! I'm a regular at Smoke on the Water, Peacemaker's, Oasis and Field of Dreams myself! See plants, prosperity and sovereignty work hand in hand @ Star
Cannabis Sovereignty: Tyendinaga has now created their own First Nation Cannabis Control Board. They insist that government licenses for the cultivation, processing, distribution, sale, possession and use of cannabis, are not valid on treaty lands. They've even passed their own interim regulatory framework instead. See below:
First Nations of Canada continue to sell cannabis on a lot of reserves where it is creating much needed jobs and stimulating the local economy. But will a federal and/or showdown be coming over the First Nations' sovereign right to grow and sell their own weed?!? Especially in Ontario, where Premier Ford insists no brick and mortar dispensaries will be legal until next April? @ Macs
More Blarney: Former Canadian PM Brian Mulroney has joined the board of a Acreage Holdings, a New York based pot company. This from the man whom once banned High Times magazine and weed bongs from Canadian store shelves! How many of us have suffered along the way?!? Oh Brave new World @ CBC
Ker-Trumped: China responds to the Donald's trade war with a bunch of new new tariffs that are going to drive the price of your vape pens waaaaaaaay up @ WeedR
Higher Learning
Fake News: The Pot Stigma: False and misleading news misinformation has falsely been the main driving force in creating feeding, and sustaining cannabis' negative image. Writer Chris O'Brien examines Toronto's Project Claudia and Gator busts as a case in point. He quotes numerous local activists, including yours truly, on Noam Chomsky and manufacturing consent. Thanks Chris! I somehow missed this one. Lotsa real great info links here too @ Dankr
Marijuana -The Weed With Roots in Hell: Of course, we can't leave out the film industry in helping create the pot stigma too! Have you seen this oldie oldie from 1936 before? Guess what? You will become promiscuous, dance and dress funny if you smoke weed! Careful you don't drown! Gotta love the hopped up beach party weed scene! Yowza! Boy! Those 30's gals y guys sure knew how to party! Lotsa reefer madness @ Youtube
Fighting The Stigma: For starters, here are but ten lies you were told about cannabis @ Youtube!
Therapeutic Cannabis: Towards a new transcendent ethic, with insight, introspection and a focus on personal recovery, through pot. Ommmm @ NB
Sativa Verses Indica Verses Hybrid: What's the difference? What's each for? Why care? Hmmm. Let's see @ Leafly
CBD's: Why use them if they don't get you high? Let's see. Hmmm. Anxiety. Stress. Pain. Much more @ WP
CBD Verses THC: Here's how they work differently on you! Class is in session @ Youtube!
Autism + Weed: Studies increasingly show that cannabis can be used to treat autism. "Joey's Strain" has been developed for use with minors @ AIW
How To Store Your Weed: Make that stash last! It's easy! Just be sure you do it right @ HT @ Leafly
How To Make Cannabis Tea: Mad hatters and new agers alike take note @ Leafly and @ NCSM
Canna-Health Care: The groundbreaking impact of legalization on our Canadian healthcare system will need to be monitored very closely. Health and safety issues? Medical cannabis access? The issues are many, and under prohibition, very little real research was ever actually done. Let it begin @ Global
Pot For Pets: Here's a "must read" guide on CBD oils for your pet @ LeafSci
HIGH TIMES
It's All Going To Pot: 85 year old, country legend and pot head Willie Nelson speaks out on weed and politics. Says he'd like to get high with Snoop, Meryl Streep and Pope Francis. Ha. Ha @ ET
True Confessions: Gasp! Meet 19 teachers whom some pot. Then read the comments. Unfortunately this is often kinda dopey and unfocused, but it makes some good points, even inadvertently, about the pot stigma @ Herb
Mars Needs Pot: Futurists and Urban farmers are busy now making sure tomorrow's Mars colonists will be able to grow their own weed. Far out man, real faaaaaar out @ FC
Electric Ladyland Remixed: Hendrix's 1968 psychedelic opus gets the 50th anniversary 5.1/ stereo remix treatment. It's a 3 cd/ 1 blue ray disc boxset housed in a glossy book. Includes tons of prerequisite hippy pix and sixties reminisces. Jimi's mind-blowing guitar totally explodes between your speakers! Love the special psychedelic panning effects on "Cross Town Traffic". His searing, guitar freak out on "All Along The Watchtower" hits new highs! There's a bootleg quality "lost concert"! Kinda muffled. Very raw. Then .... a ho hum documentary with lotsa talking heads. And only one disc of studio outtakes and home demos ... Zzzzzzz! No excuse! Endless hours of live and studio versions of just "Voodoo Chile" alone, have been kicking around on bootleg for decades. But not here on the official anniversary release! Great, as far as it goes. Very cheap on Amazon.ca right now. More @ RS
The Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers: These trees kool, counterculture, pot heads were the very suspect, heroes of Gilbert Shelton underground "comix", long ago and far away during the 1960's and 70's. Shelton remembers @ Can
Nugswap: Howzabout a cannabis co-operative where growers can swap buds? Much more to follow! See my blog. Or Dankmasta P explains @ TTB
High With A Little Help From Our Friends: How John Lennon, Yoko Ono, Led Zeppelin, Allen Ginsberg and the Grateful Dead helped kick start Canada's counterculture legalization movement way back in the day. Includes a history of prohibition in Canada too! Hmmm. Have I spotted this before?! Well, it deserves another read @ Star
