CannabisNewsBreaks – Hero Technologies Inc. (HENC) Secures Cannabis Cultivation Zoning Approval in Continued Pursuit of Vertically Integrated Strategy

April 5, 2021 09:35:12

Hero Technologies (OTC: HENC), a cannabis company focused on a vertically integrated strategy, today announced that its subsidiary, BlackBox Systems and Technologies LLC, has obtained zoning approval for cannabis cultivation on the 120-acre Michigan property it has agreed to purchase for $1,500,000. According to the update, neither the property nor Blackbox received a cannabis license from the Michigan Regulatory Authority (the “MRA”). However, the company did receive approval by the local land use authority to use the property in the future to cultivate cannabis, without which Blackbox could not move forward with the purchase and future cannabis cultivation at the site. “We continue to aggressively pursue our vertically integrated cannabis marketing strategy, and this zoning approval accelerates our plan to grow cannabis year-round on the Michigan property we plan to purchase,” said Hero Technologies’ CEO Gina Serkasevich. “We are eager to move to the next stage of property development, including financing, permitting, and breaking ground on greenhouse construction, and eventually harvesting cannabis and generating revenue for shareholders.”

Yourist, CEO of Grapefruit USA. “Until now, Grapefruit’s Hourglass technology-based products have contained THC, so Grapefruit could not sell these products across state lines or internationally. No such federal legal barrier exists for our new hemp-derived CBD only products. So, as our unique and innovative portfolio of hemp CBD only-based products expands and transforms, Grapefruit will offer novel and competitively priced, high quality CBD hemp only-derived products incorporating the Hourglass technology based time-release delivery to our customers. Furthermore, and most importantly, the public will only be able to buy the vastly superior, Hourglass powered, hemp CBD derived Grapefruit products from Grapefruit and/or its authorized agents.

420 with CNW — Marijuana Could Be Legally Available in Virginia This Summer

April 5, 2021 03:25:51

Democratic lawmakers in the General Assembly of Virginia are now in support of making recreational marijuana legal effective July 1, 2021, instead of having to wait until 2024 when a regulated market for the same is launched.

The provision to tie the legalization of marijuana to the date when licensed cannabis businesses can open was a major disappointment to marijuana advocates, and they made their views heard on this matter across the state. They were of the view that such a lengthy delay would only exacerbate…

420 with CNW — Medical Cannabis Caregivers in Maine Express Concerns about Proposed Rule Changes

March 31, 2021 03:25:23

Maine was a pioneer in the medical cannabis space, legalizing marijuana for medical use more than two decades ago. Now, the state is looking to introduce a slew of changes to its medical cannabis program, changes that have been widely opposed by medical cannabis caregivers. Currently, Maine has registered an estimated 3,000 caregivers, and state regulations currently allow caregivers to grow and sell medical cannabis to registered medical marijuana patients.

The 80-page proposal that was introduced by the state would force these caregivers as well as other medical cannabis operators to electronically track their medical marijuana across the supply chain and to install 24-hour surveillance in some areas of their establishments, among other things. The changes would require registered manufacturers, dispensaries and caregivers to install…

420 with CNW — Why the Alcohol Industry Is Investing in Cannabis

March 30, 2021 15:25:42

Over the last couple of years, the stance on marijuana in the United States has shifted, which can be observed by the number of states that have decriminalized and/or legalized the medical and recreational use of marijuana. According to BDS Analytics, marijuana sales in the United States are expected to be $16.2 billion this year, with marijuana beverage sales making up $1 billion of that amount.

According to the National Cannabis Industry Association, only three states in the country lack some form of legal marijuana; those states are Nebraska, Kansas and Idaho.

Green Hygienics Holdings (OTCQB: GRYN) was featured in The Bell2Bell Podcast, a part of InvestorBrandNetwork’s (“IBN”) sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels. GRYN’s CEO, Ron Loudoun, joined the latest episode, where he highlighted last year’s milestones in establishing GRYN at the company’s 824-acre farm with 400,000 square feet of greenhouse. “We cultivated 120 acres last year and it turned out beautifully. We’ve proven out our ability to grow premium product there,” Loudoun said, discussing the property’s idyllic environment for the hemp plant with nutrient-rich soil, altitude that enables night-time cooling for better growth and an abundance of sunshine. He went on to discuss 2021 and the company’s plans for growth, which include doubling the property’s cultivation area to 240 acres, expanding GRYN’s genetics division through its acquisition of Primordia assets and building out targeted e-commerce websites as an important piece of the company’s strategy for direct-to-consumer sales. “Our objective is to have several e-commerce websites that market to specific target customers for each of those products. In dispensaries, they’re selling flower for $5 or $10 a gram,” Loudoun pointed out. “A pound has 453 grams. They come to the farm wanting to buy it for $250 a pound. Our product is USDA certified, in a class by itself. Why sell for $250 a pound when we can build a targeted e-commerce site and sell a pound for $4,500?”

420 with CNW — Illinois City Uses Marijuana Taxes to Offer Reparations

March 30, 2021 03:25:02

The African American community has been through a great deal over the past few centuries. After being plucked from their homes in Africa, the first enslaved Africans hit America’s shores around 400 years ago, starting a long period of absolute misery for African Americans. Even after slavery was abolished, Blacks had to fight to end institutionalized racism and racial segregation in the country.

Although the Civil Rights Movement achieved a great deal, Blacks soon had to contend with extreme policing and sentencing due to the war on drugs, poverty, gang violence and the crack epidemic through the ’80s and ’90s. Believing that Blacks deserve some sort of restitution…

420 with CNW — How Data Analytics Is Proving Invaluable in the Marijuana Industry

March 26, 2021 15:25:00

After decades of prohibition, marijuana is finally legal in some form in more than 30 states. The industry has made impressive progress, creating thousands of job opportunities and providing states with millions of dollars in much-needed tax revenue. With Democrats now controlling the Senate, House and White House, the country may see lawmakers pass federal cannabis legislation in the next few years, removing most of the roadblocks that have kept the industry from advancing and ensuring its growth.

Aside from access to financial service, one factor that will redefine the industry as it grows and matures is data analytics (“DA”). With the sector still in its infancy, DA presents a great growth opportunity for cannabis companies over the next few years. Industries such as banking, retail and airlines have leveraged data collection to great success, and the state-legal…

About Christina Lake Cannabis Corp.

Christina Lake Cannabis is a licensed producer of cannabis under the Cannabis Act. The company has secured a standard cultivation license and corresponding processing/sales amendment from Health Canada (March 2020 and August 2020, respectively) as well as a research and development license (early 2020).

March 26, 2021 03:25:07

The state of Illinois’ marijuana market is booming with data showing that last year the state sold more than $1 billion worth of legal marijuana both from recreational and medical marijuana purchases.

420 with CNW — Delaware Legislators Introduce Bill to Legalize Marijuana

March 25, 2021 15:25:27

States that have legalized cannabis have seen lots of benefits, including the creation of thousands of jobs and millions of dollars in tax revenue. On top of that, most states have also focused on social equity, expunging the records of people with prior nonviolent cannabis-related convictions and giving individuals affected by the failed war on drugs a leg up in their respective cannabis industries. That is what a bill recently introduced by Delaware lawmakers seeks to achieve, despite the fact that the state governor isn’t a fan of recreational marijuana.

The legislation would create a regulated cannabis market in the state, allowing adults 21 years and older to buy and possess up to an ounce of cannabis. However, unlike recreational cannabis legislation passed in other states, it would not provide an option for home cultivation. The bill would also require the appointment of a marijuana commissioner who would issue cannabis regulations and provide licenses to qualifying applicants. Additionally, it would bestow regulatory responsibilities…

420 with CNW — Florida Legislators Consider Limiting Potency of Medical Cannabis

March 25, 2021 03:25:11

A legislation whose objective is to limit the amount of THC found in medical marijuana may soon advance to the house floor, despite opposition from medical professionals. Republican Rep. Spencer Roach, who sponsored the legislation, stated that the goal of House Bill 1455 was to regulate the medical marijuana industry in the state of Florida.

The bill would not only impose advertising restrictions on physicians who administer medical marijuana but also limit the amount of marijuana a treatment center could dispense over a particular period of time. One provision in the measure that seems to be drawing the most resistance is a 10% potency limit that will be imposed on smokeable flower. Typically, the THC level in a medical…

420 with CNW — Key Congressman Reveals Cannabis Banking Will Be Handled Before Legalization Is Considered

March 24, 2021 15:25:05

America’s state-legal cannabis industry has had quite a run, creating thousands of job opportunities, providing states with millions of dollars in tax revenue, and changing the lives of thousands of individuals with prior cannabis-related offenses. Despite achieving so much in a relatively short time, the sector has a lot stacked against it due to its status as a controlled substance at the federal level. One major challenge the industry has faced so far is lack of access to financial services, as banks and lending institutions shy away from working with cannabis businesses.

According to a Congressman who has been an ardent supporter of cannabis reform, financial institutions may soon be able to work with state-legal cannabis businesses without fear of federal reprisals. The Secure and Fair Enforcement (“SAFE”) Act, which protects banks working with cannabis…

Pac Roots Cannabis Corp. (CSE: PACR) (OTCQB: PACRF) Raises $1.34 Million, Keeps Foot on Expansion Accelerator as a Premium Brand

March 24, 2021 13:43:39
  • Pac Roots has differentiated its hemp product, resulting in sale of all 105,000 pounds of industrial hemp from its first harvest in December
  • Pac Roots has made series of business development moves lately, expanding its footprint in Canada, into U.S.
  • Positive developments supported private placement in February that raised gross proceeds of $1.34 million, capital that will be used to keep growing the company

After what could be described at best as a lull from 2019 through mid-2020, the legal cannabis industry has found its legs again on optimism that the current U.S. administration will shepherd in increasingly liberal standards towards the plant and its derivatives. The market still faces challenges, though, as consumer uptake has been slower than initially expected and a copious number of licensed producers have overfilled supply chains and squeezed margins as “me too” companies employ race-to-the-bottom pricing. For a company like Pac Roots Cannabis (CSE: PACR) (OTCQB: PACRF), the key to profitability resides in differentiation, which underpinned a highly successful first harvest for the Canadian company in December.

Using a genetics-focused harvest approach, Pac Roots Cannabis and its JV partner Rock Creek Farms completed a pilot run on 100 acres of land in British Columbia (B.C.) that produced 105,000 pounds of…

420 with CNW — Study Finds That Marijuana May Reduce Blood Pressure in Older Individuals

March 24, 2021 03:25:14

After decades of prohibition, several states in the country have been decriminalizing cannabis and setting up legal markets. Encouraged by research and anecdotal evidence about marijuana’s numerous potential medical benefits, thousands of people have been turning to the controversial plant to cure what ails them, often with encouraging results. Cannabis has been found to be effective against chronic pain, inflammation, neurological and mental disorders as well as sleep disorders.

A new study from Negrev, Israel, has come to a conclusion that could have major implications for millions of Americans. Noticing an increase in the number of older people who were using cannabis and hemp extract cannabidiol (“CBD”), researchers from Ben-Gurion University launched the study to see how cannabis use affected those individuals. After studying a group of older people, the researchers found that regular cannabis use lowers diastolic and systolic…

420 with CNW — SD Supreme Court Starts Hearing Voided Marijuana Ballot Measure Case

On Nov. 3, 2021, South Dakotans voted to pass Amendment A and Measure 26, legislation that would have legalized the recreational and medical use of cannabis respectively, making South Dakota the first state to pass both medical and recreational cannabis measures at the same time.

420 with CNW — Mexico’s Chamber of Deputies Approves Marijuana Legalization Bill

March 17, 2021 04:25:02

Last week, the majority of the legislators in Mexico voted to legalize cannabis for recreational purposes, despite some of the legislators rejecting the legislation as they had health concerns. The Mexican Chamber of Deputies passed the bill with 23 abstentions, 129 votes of opposition and 316 votes in favor of the bill. This approval is a step forward by legislators to decriminalize cannabis, with senators having approved another version of the legislation in November last year. There were some changes that were made to the bill that senators voted on in this recent session.

Earlier in January, health authorities in Mexico had issued rules to secure pharmaceutical production and medical…

420 with CNW — Colorado May Soon Make Sweeping Changes to Its Marijuana Legalization Laws

March 16, 2021 15:20:39

Despite being relatively young, the state-legal cannabis industry in the United States has made plenty of strides in just a couple of years. The industry is incredibly lucrative, earning millions in tax revenue at a time when state coffers are running dry, and creating thousands of employment opportunities. These days, the cannabis market has become flooded with high-potency products, with cannabis retailers in the U.S. selling $797 million worth of concentrates in 2020. According to some lawmakers in Colorado, this trend is worrying, especially for the nation’s children.

Back in 2014, Colorado made only 14% of the medical and recreational cannabis in the state, with cannabis flower making up most of the sales. By 2019, however, cannabis flower made up less than 50% of the market while concentrates made up one-third. With high THC concentrates becoming…

420 with CNW — How CBD Oil Differs from CBD E-Juice

March 16, 2021 04:25:56

Legalized after decades of prohibition by the 2018 Farm Bill, CBD quickly became one of the most popular products on the market. The hemp extract has potent medicinal properties, making it effective against a wide range of medical conditions. Since CBD does not intoxicate users, plenty of people have been using it to help address a variety of issues, with CBD oil and CBD e-juice (vape juices) being among the most popular means of consumption.

CBD oil was the original method of consumption when CBD became legal, but industry growth coupled with advances in technology led to the popularity of CBD e-liquid. So what is CBD oil and vape juice, and how…

CannabisNewsBreaks – Grapefruit USA Inc. (GPFT) Flagship Products Now Available through Key California Mobile Retail Distribution Platform

March 15, 2021 09:49:02

Grapefruit USA’s (OTCQB: GPFT) patented, disruptive Hourglass(TM) time-release THC+ Cannabinoid delivery cream and full-spectrum RSO cannabis oil are now available on Crown Genetics’ retail delivery online platform. GPFT’s flagship products can be found in the Wellness section and can be purchased in California. This means that consumers living in Los Angeles can order the Hourglass cream of full-spectrum RSO oil online and have it delivered to their homes or offices; once stocked, the products will also be available at 250-plus licensed retailed dispensaries that are serviced by Crown, a leading licensed cannabis distributor in California. The Grapefruit products were only included on the Crown online store and in its retail distribution system after being carefully tested and evaluated. “The approval of Grapefruit’s Hourglass THC/Cannabinoid delivery cream for inclusion on the Crown cannabis product platform represents yet another milestone for our company,” said Grapefruit CEO Bradley Yourist in the press release. “We can think of no more powerful affirmation of Hourglass’ safety and efficacy than to have a company of Crown’s reputation include a product manufactured by an industry peer such as Grapefruit in its menu of offerings to its retail and wholesale clients. Furthermore, Hourglass will now be significantly more available to Los Angeles area residents which should provide a healthy jump start to Hourglass revenues and adoption. Our customers can simply go online to both locate brick and mortar stores that inventory and sell Hourglass or order it online and have it delivered directly to their home or office in California via the Crown delivery system. We anticipate that our inclusion in the Crown system will not only attract many new retail customers for Hourglass and other Grapefruit products but will also expose the ‘Grapefruit’ corporate name, Grapefruit’s trademarked ‘Hourglass name, and our OTCMarkets ticker symbol ‘GPFT’ to an ever-increasing national and international cannabis-centric audience.”

420 with CNW — New Study Suggests CBD May Increase Your Lifespan

March 12, 2021 16:21:29

As 2018 drew to a close, Congress passed a bill that finally legalized industrial hemp after years of prohibition. Among other things, the 2018 Farm Bill legalized the cultivation and sale of industrial hemp plus its extracts. Soon after, demand for a hemp extract called cannabidiol (“CBD”) boomed to immense heights, based mostly on claims that it had extensive medical benefits. Subsequent studies have found CBD to indeed be effective against everything from anxiety, stress, and insomnia to chronic pain and pediatric epilepsy.

While CBD has been proven to be effective against a wide range of medical conditions, does it have the ability to actually increase your lifespan? According to the results of a new study, hemp extract actually may be able to help you live longer. A study by Canopy Group Corporation concluded that worms that consume CBD had a longer lifespan compared to worms that didn’t. Consuming hemp-derived CBD increased the overall lifespan of the worms by 20% and their late-stage activities…

CannabisNewsBreaks – Golden Leaf Holdings Ltd. (CSE: GLH) (OTCQB: GLDFF) CEO, Executive Chairman Featured in Exclusive Stockhouse Media Video Q&A

March 12, 2021 12:24:33

Golden Leaf Holdings (CSE: GLH) (OTCQB: GLDFF) CEO Jeff Yapp and executive chair John Varghese were featured guests in a recent Stockhouse Media video Q&A. In presenting the video, Stockhouse noted that Golden Leaf had recently reported a record-breaking increase in revenue. Golden Leaf execs were invited to discuss the recent company news as well as look forward at what’s in store for the company; the discussion also looked at investment opportunities in the sector. Golden Leaf is a premier, consumer-driven cannabis company specializing in retail, production, processing, wholesale, and distribution. During the interview, the GLDFF execs discussed how the company has been able to overcome the challenges faced by cannabis companies in the past couple of years to reach the stage where, today, the company is moving into a growth stage — or what Yapp calls the “crawl, walk, run” strategy. The company operates in Oregon, a state that is seeing significant cannabis growth and competition recently. GLDFF has been able to thrive because of its amazing team and operational discipline. “Part of the discipline of getting to here was not spending money and only spending money where we had to,” said Golden Leaf executive chairman John Varghese in the interview. “None of us came here to run a $25–$30 million business. There’s capacity to run a much, much bigger business. That’s our intent.”

420 with CNW — Pennsylvania Governor Announces Marijuana Pardons

March 12, 2021 04:25:56

Legal cannabis hasn’t just provided states with millions of dollars in tax revenue at a time when their coffers were running low, it has also given people who were shackled with cannabis convictions a new lease at life. Although the decades’ long war on drugs was meant to take down the criminal enterprises behind the illicit drug trade, it is ordinary people who were by and large law-abiding citizens who suffered the most. For most cannabis legalization proponents, marijuana legislation would remove cannabis-related offenses from their records, ridding them of the stigma associated with a criminal record.

In Pennsylvania, Gov. Tom Wolf has announced a round of pardons that will include individuals with prior nonviolent, cannabis-related convictions. The governor, who is known for his pro-cannabis views, has already pardoned a total of 310 people, 69 of them being part of a program that was granted expedited review to overturn…

Cannabis: Reflections Of A Soldier

March 11, 2021 13:35:13

When you join a combat arms Military Occupational Specialty (MOS), you don’t think as much about the things you bring back when you return. When I joined as a 19D (Cavalry Scout) in 2005, I quickly found myself in line for a combat deployment to Iraq. My unit and I thought a lot about our training, fellow soldiers, our mission and what combat might entail. We wrestled with how we would perform under fire, what we would do if we were maimed or disabled, and how to write a will at an age when we weren’t even legally allowed to enjoy a beer.

For those of us who saw combat and were lucky enough to return – combat related disabilities became our new reality far too often for comfort. Beyond the initial shock of returning to civilization, many of us faced PTSD, night terrors, and overwhelming stress and anxiety.

CannabisNewsBreaks – Grapefruit USA Inc. (GPFT) Signs Digital Services Consulting Agreement with BFN

March 11, 2021 10:24:21

Grapefruit USA (OTCQB:GPFT), a premiere, fully licensed California-based cannabis company, has inked a digital services consulting agreement with Roger Choudhury and his Business Financial Network (“BFN”). According to the agreement, BFN will produce tailored video presentations about Grapefruit and its products at least three times a month. The videos will focus on GPFT’s flagship product, its patented, disruptive Hourglass time-release THC/cannabinoid delivery cream. Other videos will feature interviews with Grapefruit management and other relevant subjects. Choudhury has been creating and distributing news and updates on selected companies through YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Instagram, Blogger and other social media sites for years. His followers now number more than 50,000. “We are pleased to enter into this agreement, which allows us to easily launch a digital outreach to our shareholders and cannabis-centric consumers, who are always eager to receive updates on Grapefruit’s progress with respect to both our financial results and our products,” said Grapefruit CEO Bradley J. Yourist. “Management believes that as the Grapefruit/Hourglass shareholder and user base rapidly expands in the coming months, press releases alone will not provide sufficient information to those audiences, and the BFN plan will allow us to quickly and meaningfully increase our flow of information to shareholders and users alike. Think of it as the initiation of Grapefruit/HourglassTube, through which the Company will eventually broadcast GPFT stock and product development updates in real time.”

420 with CNW — Federal Data Indicates Decline in Banks Working with Marijuana Firms Is Ending

March 11, 2021 04:25:28

Cannabis businesses have had a complicated relationship with banking institutions for quite a while. Although most states allow cannabis in some form, federal law still classifies the plant as a controlled substance, and this difference in legislation has made financial dealings difficult for the cannabis businesses. Most of them have trouble finding financial institutions that are willing to transact with them, let alone offer them loan and financing services.

However, federal data shows that this trend may be coming to an end. For a couple of reasons, the number of banks and credit unions working with cannabis institutions consistently declined for three quarters straight. The coronavirus pandemic was partly to blame, coupled with revised reporting requirements issued by the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). Based on data from FinCEN’s latest report, this decline…

420 with CNW — Michigan Dispatches $10M Off Marijuana Taxes to Disadvantaged Communities

March 9, 2021 16:25:01

Although most opponents of cannabis legalization posited that allowing access to cannabis would boost drug abuse and crime rates among the youth, proponents focused on all the good a lucrative cannabis market could do. Aside from expunging the records of those with prior nonviolent, cannabis-related convictions, a cannabis market would provide plenty of tax revenue for states to carry out social justice initiatives, which is what Michigan is doing.

Thanks to the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marijuana Act, more than 100 communities in the state will receive close to $10 million from the Michigan Department of Treasury. A news release from the state’s cannabis regulatory agency says that, starting last week, it began sending around $28,000 to 38 cities, 38 counties, 21 townships, and 7 villages for every licensed…

vote to legalize cannabis in Mexico is scheduled for this week in the Chamber of Deputies; the vote comes months after the Senate approved the measure. Despite this move, however, legislators state that there’s still no formal revised legislation.

The Political Coordination Board, which was set up by party leaders to agree on various legislative matters, scheduled the proposed bill for floor action on March 9. Martha Tagle Martinez, a member of the chamber’s health committee, stated that there was still no draft opinion, adding that any legislation would have to pass through the Health and Justice Committee where it would be analyzed, discussed, and altered then that draft opinion…

420 with CNW — Five Must-Know Things About CBD Shatter and Wax

March 8, 2021 16:25:22

Congress passed the Farm Bill in 2018, effectively legalizing the cultivation and sale of industrial hemp and its extracts after decades of prohibition. With farmers across the country taking part in pilot programs, a market for CBD quickly developed. The hemp extract is said to have a wide variety of health benefits, and preliminary reports coupled with anecdotal evidence have been encouraging.

Shatter and wax are without a doubt the most potent and quickest-acting means of consuming CBD. Shatter is an amber, translucent solid that is brittle to the touch while CBD wax looks just like wax and has a consistency similar to coconut oil. Both of them, collectively referred to as wax, are highly concentrated, with up to 80% CBD…

Grapefruit USA (OTCQB: GPFT), a premiere, fully licensed California-based cannabis company, today released a further update on its recent announcement that it has been approached by a Canadian cannabis company (the “Canadian Partner”) to enter into discussions concerning a potential acquisition transaction and joint venture to manufacture, distribute and market Grapefruit’s products, specifically Grapefruit’s patented Hourglass(TM) THC/Cannabinoid time-release delivery cream throughout Canada. “We were recently informed by the Canadian Partner that it has duly noticed a shareholder’s meeting for early April 2021, at which it will, among other matters, consider and potentially seek approval of the potential joint venture and/or acquisition and intends immediately thereafter to seek finalization of the terms of the joint venture and further detailed discussions on a related acquisition,” said Grapefruit CEO Bradley J. Yourist. “Grapefruit is pleased that the Canadian Partner has chosen this course of action as it provided us with objective evidence of their bona fides. As we stated before, the joint venture may precede without precluding an acquisition as we continue to take steps to ascertain and evaluate the capital requirements and various legal, regulatory and logistical challenges of finalizing a joint venture and/or the related acquisition. Once again, that being said, we wish to emphasize that the discussions reported here, although largely positive, remain preliminary in nature and may be terminated at any time.

420 with CNW — Rhode Island Senate Passes Legislation Creating Safe Sites for Illicit Drug Users

March 5, 2021 16:25:00

Opioids initially gained popularity in the 1990s as doctors started prescribing prescription opioids to patients. Over the years, there has been a sharp increase in overdose-related deaths across the globe, from both prescribed and illicit drugs. To combat the growing opioid crisis, Australia, Canada, and some European countries established safe consumption sites (“SCS”) to help prevent overdose deaths and to provide substance-use disorder treatment to individuals.

The United States, however, doesn’t have a single safe consumption site, despite losing over 750,000 people from 1999–2018 to drug overdoses. However, the country may see its first-ever SCS if either of two bills in Rhode Island’s General Assembly passes. Initially introduced back in 2019, bills H 5245 and S 0016 would approve the creation of safe consumption sites in the state. According to Substance Use Policy, Education, and Recovery PAC co-chair Haley McKee, the bills…

CannabisNewsBreaks – Green Hygienics Holdings Inc. (GRYN) Announces Closing of Acquisition of Primordia Assets

March 5, 2021 13:12:48

Green Hygienics Holdings (OTCQB: GRYN) today announced that after months of negotiation and diligence, it has closed the acquisition of certain assets of Primordia, a seed-to-soil, single-origin hemp supply company, with a combination of cash and other future rights and entitlements. According to the update, Primordia will continue with its remaining operations under a different name but will not compete with Green Hygienics in this sector. “We are at the forefront of a growing, dynamic new sector within the biotech industry. The demand side continues to grow rapidly, while on the supply side the learning curve is steep and opportunities for valued acquisitions will arise,” said Green Hygienics CEO Ron Loudoun. “Our first e-commerce site is for the boutique brand Sol Valley Ranch, and the Primordia acquisition will target farm-direct bulk wholesale buyers. When you consider the improved ROI created through sales of finished product, it makes sense to develop or acquire a portfolio of e-commerce sites that target specific market segments. This acquisition will generate immediate cash flow for Green Hygienics.”

CannabisNewsBreaks – Golden Leaf Holdings Ltd. (CSE: GLH) (OTCQB: GLDFF) Shifts into Growth Mode with Recent Fundraising, Acquisition Announcements

March 5, 2021 11:43:26

Golden Leaf Holdings Ltd. (CSE: GLH) (OTCQB: GLDFF), a Portland-based cannabis company widely recognized for its Chalice Farms stores and products has raised approximately $8.7 million and recently signed a letter of intent to acquire a store chain in Northwest Oregon, both indications that the company is shifting into a growth mode with a focus on Oregon markets. In a recent article, Golden Leaf Holdings CEO Jeff Yapp noted that the company was waiting to reveal the name of the chain of store pending a definitive purchase agreement. When the deal goes through, Yapp noted, GLH will use monies from recent fundraising, along with stock and a promissory note, to complete the transaction; the stores could conceivably bring in an at least $10 million annually. The article noted that a series of restructuring moves, a cash-flow positive quarter from operations for the first time and consecutive record-breaking quarters last year have revived investor interest in the company, which also distributes products in California, Nevada and Washington. “Our focus has been on the operating fundamentals and earning credibility,” said Golden Leaf Holdings CEO Jeff Yapp in the article. “That got us to the place where we had a base of revenue that allowed us to operate on a profitable basis. So the question became, how do we accelerate growth? . . . Oregon is undervalued by the industry. People see it as oversaturated, over supplied, but Oregon as a leadership market is very interesting. We think it’s a bellwether state.”

420 with CNW — Michigan Rolls Back Key Recreational Cannabis Business License Restriction

March 4, 2021 16:34:19

After months of restricting access to its recreational cannabis industry, Michigan has loosened a key restriction that kept many from acquiring a recreational cannabis license. Beginning on March 1, 2021, applicants for five types of recreational cannabis licenses will not be required to have an active medical marijuana license to qualify. The state initially put this policy in place to allow the companies that first invested in cannabis to become established and recoup their costs before the industry was filled with sellers, says the director of the Michigan Cannabis Industry Association.

Although the requirement was supposed to remain active for two years after the state began issuing recreational cannabis licenses, cannabis legislation passed by voters in 2018 said the state could remove the prerequisite after a year to fight black market sales, address reduced supply…

CannabisNewsBreaks – Gage Cannabis Co. President Featured Guest on Gamechangers LIVE Interview

March 4, 2021 15:19:42

Gage Growth Corp. (d.b.a. Gage Cannabis) president and director Fabian Monaco recently appeared on Gamechangers LIVE, a podcast series that features individuals who are gamechangers in their fields. During the podcast, which is hosted by Sergio Tigera, guests talk about their journeys and share their mindsets, struggles and successes in an effort to both inspire and inform listeners. During the interview, Monaco discussed Gage’s recent closing of its oversubscribed Regulation A+, Tier 2, equity financing that totaled $50 million, the maximum amount allowed under the company’s offering. Monaco talked about the financing, referencing his extensive background in investment banking and capital markets; he also noted that Gage plans an upcoming initial public offering. Monaco also provided additional insights about the future of the cannabis industry, including the challenges cannabis companies regarding U.S. banking regulations. He also outlined why now is the ideal time for anyone — investors as well as anyone looking for a career in a sector with promising growth — to get into the industry. “The industry continues to move in a positive direction,” said Gage Cannabis president and director Fabian Monaco in the press release. “Right now, it’s probably the most positive it has ever been. I think we’re going to see explosive growth. If you look at the U.S., I think it’s going to be crazy in terms of the growth this year. You’re frequently thrown a curveball in this industry. Things you think will happen fast end up being slow. Things you think are going to be slow end up happening fast. It’s like constantly being on the treadmill at super high speed, just trying to make sure you don’t fall off.”

420 with CNW — Past Cannabis Use Won’t Be a Disqualifying Factor for Potential Hires for White House Positions

March 4, 2021 04:25:57

The new White House administration recently issued revised guidelines whose purpose will be to resolve the matter on recreational cannabis use for individuals hired to fill crucial White House positions. While the use of cannabis is legal in various states and cities across the country, it is not legal under federal law, which makes it a potential basis for disqualification in acquiring security clearance.

Transition officials had earlier identified recreational cannabis use as a possible obstacle for applicants, which prompted the White House to begin waiving a requirement that would permit possible appointees in the President’s Executive Office be allowed, on a case-by-case basis. The officials stated that this waiver would only be afforded to individuals who would be occupying positions that did not need…

420 with CNW — Nevada Legislators to Debate Cannabis Lounges Again

March 3, 2021 16:25:42

Since 2017, Nevada has allowed recreational cannabis sales, and as a result, the state has seen an influx of tourists looking to purchase and consume cannabis before they head home. However, since state law requires that recreational cannabis be consumed in a private residence, which excludes hotel rooms, these tourists essentially break the law when they consume cannabis. To fix this issue, there have been several unsuccessful attempts to legalize cannabis consumption lounges over the years.

Thanks to a new bill in the legislature seeking to legalize marijuana consumption lounges, tourists may soon be able to consume marijuana legally in the state. The legislation’s sponsor, Assemblyman Steve Yeager, D-Las Vegas, says the state needs to provide an avenue for people to consume cannabis responsibly. Tick Segerblom, Clark County Commissioner, says the fact that Nevada…

420 with CNW — Bipartisan Bill Introduced to Legalize Cannabis in Pennsylvania

March 3, 2021 04:25:36

The wave of cannabis legislation reform sweeping across the United States has reached Pennsylvania, and the Commonwealth may very well be the next state to legalize cannabis. A new bipartisan bill introduced to the Pennsylvania legislature last week by state Senators Dan Laughlin and Sharif Street seeks to legalize marijuana, allowing individuals aged 21 and over to purchase and consume marijuana. The new bipartisan bill would also expunge the records of people with previous cannabis-related, nonviolent offenses.

Unlike the state’s medical cannabis market, which has just a few growers due to limited licenses, licenses for recreational cannabis growers would be widely available. Additionally, medical dispensaries that are currently selling medical cannabis would be allowed to sell marijuana for adult use. Although there have been attempts to pass cannabis legislation in the past, they have been unsuccessful in the Republican-controlled legislature. However, this new bill has a greater chance of success compared…

420 with CNW — Virginia Becomes 16th State to Legalize Recreational Cannabis

Virginia’s Legislature recently passed a measure that would legalize adult-use cannabis in the state. The Senate passed the initiative in a 20–19 vote while the House approved it in a 48–43 vote, making Virginia the only state in the Old South to allow legalization. It should be noted that not one Republican in either chamber voted for the measure.

Democratic Majority Leader Del. Charniele Herring, who sponsored the measure, stated on the floor that to her, the legislation was a justice bill, adding that while it still had flaws, it represented…

Each chamber had approved its own legalization measure earlier in the month, based on a plan that was introduced at the start of the year by other leaders of the state, who had in 2020 pledged to legalize marijuana. The two initiatives are similar in many ways but have…

CannabisNewsBreaks – Grapefruit USA Inc. (GPFT) Provides Update on MOU with Canadian Cannabis Company, Potential JV

March 1, 2021 10:11:41

Grapefruit USA (OTCQB:GPFT), a premiere, fully licensed California-based cannabis company, is providing an update regarding the announcement of a potential acquisition transaction. The company earlier announced that a Canadian cannabis company had shown interest in entering  discussions involving an acquisition transaction; those discussions led to the two companies signing a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”) in February. The MOU outlines terms under which the parties could enter into a joint venture (“JV”) that would call for the joint manufacture, distribution and marketing in Canada of Grapefruit’s products, including but not limited to Grapefruit’s flagship Hourglass(TM) THC/cannabinoid time-release delivery cream. “As we have stated before, a joint venture may precede without precluding an acquisition,” said Grapefruit CEO Bradley J. Yourist. “Development of the Hourglass’ MOU to both manufacture and distribute Hourglass into Canada has moved the entire process forward as we now more clearly understand each other’s overall goals and priorities as well as the capital requirements and legal, regulatory and logistical challenges of finalizing a joint venture and/or an acquisition. We expect to bring the process forward to the point of making a decision in the next 60–90 days. Once again, that being said, we wish to emphasize that the discussions reported here, although largely positive remain preliminary in nature and may be terminated at any time. Grapefruit will update the public as necessary on any material joint venture or acquisition developments as events proceed.”

420 with CNW — New Jersey Governor Signs Bill to Legalize Recreational Cannabis

February 25, 2021 16:22:15

Earlier this week, Gov. Phil Murphy of New Jersey signed three legislations into law, which decriminalized small amounts of cannabis possession and made adult use cannabis legal in the state. After the bills were approved, state officials moved to end arrests and dismiss any pending cannabis charges.

This makes New Jersey the 13th state in the United States to legalize marijuana, joining Massachusetts, California, Vermont, Colorado and Maine, where marijuana is legal. The state legislature in Pennsylvania…

420 with CNW — Fewer Workers’ Comp Claims Filed by Older Adults in Jurisdictions with Legal Marijuana Markets

February 24, 2021 16:21:32

Over the past decade, the United States has seen a significant surge in cannabis drug reform. By the end of 2020, more than 40 states had legalized cannabis for either medical use or recreational use. Although the upsurge in cannabis legalization bills has resulted in a significant increase in tax revenue for these states and helped to reinvest in communities that were most affected by the war on drugs, not everyone is happy about legal cannabis. Employers, for instance, worry that cannabis use by their employees may hinder productivity, ultimately impacting companies’ bottom lines.

However, new research unveiled by the National Bureau of Economic Research shows interesting findings. Employers may actually cut costs as injured workers in states with recreational cannabis markets tend to claim cheaper workers’ compensation. A worker compensation…

420 with CNW — An Overview of Cannabis Legislation Approved Last Week Across the US

February 23, 2021 16:24:36

The past week has been quite a busy time for cannabis reform. Lawmakers recently tabled a bill seeking to legalize cannabis at the federal level, while legislators from four states approved new marijuana legalization bills in various committees. In the wake of last year’s slew of cannabis reform victories at the state level, legislators have been keen on cannabis legalization, whether by leveraging the momentum of the state-level legislation or by getting ahead of campaigners to craft their own cannabis legislation rather than wait for policy change through the ballot.

In Hawaii, the Senate Committee responsible for Intergovernmental, Public Safety and Military Affairs gave the nod to two bills that would legalize cannabis and increase the allowed limit. Bill SB-767 aims to legalize marijuana for adults aged at least 21 years, as well as allow state-licensed businesses to grow, produce and sell cannabis products. Adults aged 21 and over would also be able to grow a maximum…
