It’s a great addition to LinkedIn. Now I don’t have to carry business cards. But, that is too funny.

After a week of conversations at @CdnChamberofCom AGM and @Cannabis_Canada #grassonthehill, I have come to a conclusion. No matter what, we should ask for another #cannabis review in 3 years after this review concludes. Another review to get it right and set the world standard

Thank you to the continued advocacy of the @OntarioCofC, @roccorossiTO @MichelleLyEaton @DSafayeni @claudessanti. And for coming to a common sense conclusion about the #cannabis sector.@rachelcolic @pettheclerc @jarred_cohen @CdnChamberofCom

About time.
Replying to @POTUS46Archive
Sending people to jail for possessing marijuana has upended too many lives – for conduct that is legal in many states. That’s before you address the clear racial disparities around prosecution and conviction. Today, we begin to right these wrongs.

This right here is the biggest problem for the sector. Those that wrote the rules, set the non-negotiable fees and taxation, don’t do education and gave themselves monopoly are the ones making all the money. Provincial fees, taxation and monopolies are breaking the system.

Right back at you…

I completely agree that accountability is crucial. That is why we should focus on the politicians, bureaucrats, influencers and regulators that have created a regime that all in the sector are chaffing under. Therefore, let’s find commonality, create change and sustainability.
Sometimes holding people to account publicly will ensure cooperation and therefore collaboration. Never be afraid to speak the truth.

There is momentum to create change if we are unified voice. So many things coming to a head. Cannabis Act Review, CBD/CHPs, Industry Table with ISED, challenges in Ontario and BC with wholesale. Big change with big collaboration.

Yesterday's news story from CBC cited a study from the New England Journal of Medicine that only looks at hospitalization data. To not evaluate any other data is irresponsible. Read our comments on why we believe the causal relationship is spurious. 2/2 ow.ly/PUYq50Ktf5y

Every few months, a story pops up across Canada, that indicates cannabis legalization has led to higher numbers of child hospitalizations. While these 2 things may be true, we don't believe one caused the other. This story is intentionally misleading 1/2 ow.ly/PUYq50Ktf5y
