420 with CNW – Judge Faults Walmart in Arizona Medical Cannabis Case

February 20, 2019 04:20:19

A federal judge in Arizona has faulted Walmart for dismissing an employee who tested positive for cannabis even after that employee informed her employer that she had a valid medical marijuana card issued by the state.

It all started when Carol Whitmire sustained an injury while doing her work in one of Walmart’s stores in May 2016. Whitmire, who had worked with the same company for eight years, was immediately rushed to receive medical care after the accident. Blood and urine samples were also taken for analysis as part of Walmart’s policy.

Whitmire informed the HR department about her status as a medical cardholder after that incident and she continued to work after she recovered. However, she was terminated in July for being in contravention of Walmart’s policy on drugs.

Consequently, Whitmire sued Walmart for discrimination and wrongful dismissal. Walmart responded by telling court that it had a right to dismiss Whitmire due to her positive drugs test results.

However, court disagreed and pointed out that Walmart failed to prove that the positive drugs test indicated that Carol Whitmire had been working while intoxicated with marijuana. Had Walmart provided such proof, the court may have considered their assertion that they had good faith in terminating Whitmire.

Whitmire’s attorney, Joshua Carden, applauded the decision of Judge James Teilborg. Carden said that the judge had set a precedent that paved the way for private right-of-action lawsuits under the Arizona medical marijuana laws.

Joshua Carden revealed that the court would soon set a date for delivering its ruling regarding the possibility of reinstating Whitmire, as well as determining how much is due to her for damages and costs for the suits she filed.

Walmart was also glad that the federal court dismissed some of the claims made by Carol Whitmire in her suit. The company reiterated its ceaseless efforts to provide a safe environment for all its customers and associates.

Cases like Carol Whitmire’s are likely to crop up frequently because there is a lot that is still not known about cannabis. For example, for how long can someone remain impaired after consuming cannabis? Part of the reasons why Walmart couldn’t be justified to fire Whitmire is that it wasn’t clear whether a positive drugs test meant that Whitmire was under the influence while at work. Until scientific studies resolve this grey area, employers and employees will not be certain where the boundary is.

All in all, Cannabis Strategic Ventures, Inc. (OTC: NUGS) as well as Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSX.V: RIV) (OTC: CNPOF) welcome the judgment that made it clear that patients using medical marijuana legally will not lose their jobs just because they test positive for cannabis.

420 with CNW – Demand Soars as UK Customers Fear CBD Drinks Ban

February 19, 2019 16:20:50

The Food Standards Agency (FSA) in the UK has triggered panic buying after it announced that CBD drinks fall under the “novel” products category as stipulated by the EU. This classification means that such “novel” products can only be available for sale after being tested and approved.

2018 saw an explosion of CBD-based products on the UK market. These included CBD chocolates, sweets, cakes and even pet products. All these products hit the market amidst a rise in the popularity of CBD.

However, January saw the FSA vowing to exert more control over CBD products on the market. It called on local authorities to work with it to remove any CBD products that were being sold without undergoing the required public safety tests.

As a result of that announcement, customers are rushing to bulk buy CBD drinks just in case the regulator makes good on the threat to pull CBD products from retail shelves.

Green Monkey Drinks (the first UK company to make carbonated CBD drinks) revealed that its online sales have jumped by 8,000 percent ever since the FSA made its ruling. They believe that this rise in sales can be attributed to customers who are trying to stockpile CBD products.

Green Monkey Drinks expressed disappointment that the Food Standards Agency hasn’t been in touch with the different companies that have invested heavily in the CBD industry. The drinks maker believes that the regulator hasn’t taken the right decision given the fact that the World Health Organization has just asserted that CBD is safe and should therefore not be subjected to any international controls.

For its part, the FSA insists that its decision is based on the changes that were made to the Novel Food Catalogue of the EU. The EU says players in the CBD industry failed to prove that CBD products have a history of consumption dating back to 1997 or earlier within the EU. This means that CBD is a novel product which should not be allowed on the market without undergoing safety testing and approval.

The FSA therefore wants to find a way forward in light of the decision made by the EU. They intend to meet different stakeholders, such as CBD product manufacturers and local authorities in order to clarify how the different players will execute their role in ensuring that the CBD industry complies with the existing laws.

ChineseInvestors.com (OTCQB: CIIX) as well as Choom Holdings Inc. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF) hope that the UK regulator finds a solution that addresses the regulatory needs without stifling the nascent CBD industry there.

NetworkNewsBreaks – QMC Quantum Minerals Corp. (OTC: QMCQF) (TSX.V: QMC) (FSE: 3LQ) Mobilizes Diamond Drill and Support Crew to Irgon Lithium Mine Project

February 19, 2019 12:19:36

Quantum Minerals (OTC: QMCQF) (TSX.V: QMC) (FSE: 3LQ) this morning announced that it has mobilized a diamond drill and support crew to the company’s wholly-owned Irgon Mine Project. The project is located in the prolific Cat Lake-Winnipeg River rare-element pegmatite field of S.E. Manitoba, which also hosts Cabot Corporation’s nearby Tantalum Mining Corporation of Canada (“TANCO”) rare-element pegmatite. According to the update, QMC is initiating a two-phase drill program that intends to confirm and expand the Irgon property’s published historic resource (1.2 million tons grading 1.51 percent Li2O as previously calculated for Lithium Corporation of Canada). The program’s initial phase will consist of 1500m of NQ drilling in 12 holes, with the first 8 to confirm grades and widths of the 1953/54 drill results used to calculate the initial, historic resource that used data derived by sampling both the initial drill core and underground channel samples that were taken across the dike from within the currently inaccessible, water-filled workings. The remaining 4 holes will chase the Irgon Dike westward from the area hosting the original resource in order to test the spodumene-bearing pegmatites identified as the Irgon Dike’s Western Extension, and confirm its westward continuity. QMC, with results of the phase one drilling in hand, has instructed SGS to produce an updated, NI 43-101 compliant, inferred resource for the central, previously developed section of the Irgon Dike. QMC expects that testing of the Irgon Dike’s westward extension will add additional inferred tonnage available on the property.

This unmet medical need facing advanced breast cancer patients is real and growing ever more acute, as new cases of breast cancer are diagnosed daily. More than 2.1 million new cases were documented globally in 2018, according to the Cancer Research Institute (http://nnw.fm/Eh4zm).

NetworkNewsBreaks – BriaCell Therapeutics Corp. (OTCQB: BCTXF) (TSX.V: BCT) to Present Clinical and Scientific Findings at Key Oncology Conferences

February 19, 2019 10:25:49

BriaCell Therapeutics (OTCQB: BCTXF) (TSX.V: BCT), a biotechnology company developing targeted, safe treatments for cancer, today announced that it will present clinical and scientific findings at key oncology conferences. According to the update, the company was selected to present a poster at the 2019 ASCO-SITC Clinical Immuno-Oncology Symposium, to be held in San Francisco, California from February 28 to March 2, 2019. The poster will highlight findings related to the mechanism of action of BriaCell’s lead candidate, Bria-IMT(TM), as well as BriaDX(TM), the Bria-IMT(TM) companion diagnostic test and Bria-OTS(TM), the company’s off-the-shelf personalized immunotherapy. In addition, BriaCell Founder and Director Dr. Charles L. Wiseman will be featured as a keynote speaker at the 10th Euro Breast Cancer Summit to be held in Paris, France on March 20 – 21, 2019. The company has also been accepted to present a poster at the Annual Meeting for the American Association for Cancer Research (“AACR”) to be held at the Georgia World Congress Center in Atlanta, Georgia from March 29 – April 3, 2019. The poster will summarize molecular and clinical findings that support the advancement of the Bria-OTS(TM) program.

“An estimated 42,000 women will die of breast cancer in 2019 in the U.S. alone, indicating a substantial unmet medical need for a large patient population whose tumors had become resistant to chemotherapy or other therapeutic regimens,” BriaCell President and CEO Dr. Bill Williams stated in the news release. “Currently, there are no effective treatment options for these patients, leaving them with a very poor prognosis and a grim survival outlook. We are excited to share our findings with the scientific and medical community at ASCO-SITC Clinical Immuno-Oncology Symposium and the AACR meeting. We believe that our unique approach is promising and supports personalizing our immunotherapy to match individual patients. HLA typing may serve as a companion diagnostic test, BriaDX(TM), to determine the best match for Bria-IMT(TM) and for Bria-OTS(TM), our off-the-shelf personalized immunotherapy, which is under development for breast cancer patients. Bria-OTS(TM) has the potential to stimulate the immune system in a manner tailored to the patient without the complexities associated with other personalized therapies, to bring hope to advanced breast cancer patients with few effective treatment options. Further studies are merited and in progress, especially for our ongoing combination study of Bria-IMT(TM) with KEYTRUDA®.”

NetworkNewsBreaks – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) Shows Potential to Become a Global Cannabis Industry Leader

February 15, 2019 13:37:23

The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF), a cannabis-focused research and development company, was recently classified in an Institutional Equity Research report by CIBC World Markets as one of the few small- and medium-sized businesses that have what it takes to lead the new global cannabis market. A recent article discussing TGODF reads, “According to the CIBC World Markets report, strong management teams offer investors the best guidelines in terms of entities that have the potential to become global leaders. . . . The management’s vision for the future is much more important in this industry than a valuation, the report concludes. While a valuation is still relevant, it matters less than in other industries. It has had little effect on cannabis trading patterns, while regulatory change, external investment and demonstration of operational execution have established themselves as much more important factors.”

420 with CNW – EU Parliament Votes to Support Medical Cannabis

February 15, 2019 04:20:58

On Wednesday (February 13), the European Union Parliament passed a resolution that will help to advance research into medical cannabis within the EU. This resolution comes hot on the heels of a recommendation by the World Health Organization (WHO) to reschedule cannabis internationally.

While the resolution passed in the EU Parliament isn’t binding, it provides encouragement to EU member states to increase their citizens’ access to medical marijuana. The resolution also calls on member countries to prioritize research and clinical studies on marijuana.

This resolution passed by the EU Parliament provides yet another voice in support of medical marijuana. The World Health Organization also recommended that cannabis be rescheduled in recognition of its therapeutic potential while also being aware that the drug can be addictive. A final vote is expected in March to cement the position of the UN on the recommendations made by the WHO expert committee that studied the matter at great length.

The EU resolution also goes further to call on member states to set standards for all non-pharmaceutical cannabis products in a bid to protect consumers.

Member states were also called upon to address all the legal, cultural, regulatory and financial barriers that have stood in the way of scientific research on marijuana and its medicinal uses. To put this appeal into context, consider the U.S. federal government’s laws on marijuana. Those laws make it hard for researchers to conduct any meaningful studies since cannabis is federally illegal and isn’t recognized as having any therapeutic value.

Additionally, only one cultivator (based in Mississippi) is mandated to provide all the cannabis needed for any approved research in the U.S. The cannabis from this facility is notorious for its poor quality (if researchers can manage to secure that marijuana in the first place). Such barriers have made the U.S. to lag behind in cannabis research. The EU resolution seeks to fix such problems amongst EU member states.

The members of the European Parliament also agreed that it was necessary to establish case-specific therapies for the medicinal use of cannabis. For example, does someone with chronic pain require the same concentration of THC and CBD (among other ingredients) as another person who wants to use medical cannabis to treat or manage insomnia? Scientific research should be able to answer such questions, according to the EU Parliament.

VIVO Cannabis Inc. (TSX.V: VIVO) (OTCQX: VVCIF) and Youngevity International, Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) welcome the decisions made by the EU Parliament and the World Health organization regarding the medical benefits of marijuana.

420 with CNW – Green Growth Brands Set to Open CBD Shops across the US

February 14, 2019 16:20:04

Green Growth Brands, a cannabis company headquartered in Ohio, has partnered with Simon Property Group to open at least 100 CBD shops in malls across the U.S. Simon Property Group is the biggest owner of malls in the U.S.

John Rulli, the President of Simon Malls, revealed in a press statement that the shopping experience provided by Green Growth Brands was exactly what they are constantly on the lookout for, and that was why they were adding GGB shops in the malls owned by Simon Property Group.

The two entities intend to work together to open a minimum of 108 CBD shops in 2019, and then further expansion will take place in the coming years.

Castleton Square Mall in Indianapolis will have the honor of hosting the first Green Growth Brands CBD shop in March this year with other shops following closely in the coming months.

Green Growth Brands is also having discussions with several other property developers so that a total of 300 CBD shops can be opened during this year. This number includes the 108 shops that will be opened in the malls owned by Simon Property Group.

This partnership between Simon Property Group and Green Growth Brands offers each side unique benefits. For example, Green Growth Brands will have a chance to popularize its CBD wellness products by taking advantage of some of the prominent malls owned by the property group. Such prominent shelf-space will deepen awareness about CBD.

As for Simon Property Group, they will benefit by having a large company as a tenant across the U.S. This is a huge benefit because mall owners have been facing the nightmare of having large clients closing shop or scaling back the number of locations where they operate. A clear example is Sears that went bankrupt.

It is worth noting that the signing into law of the Farm Bill 2018 legalized hemp and the different products that can be got from it, such as cannabidiol (CBD).

However, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) still prohibits the addition of CBD to foods and drinks. This may make it hard for restaurants and other businesses to legally sell CBD-infused cocktails and other drinks.

The CBD shops set up by Green Growth Brands can be a way to provide high-quality CBD products so that buyers can make their own CBD drinks if they cannot access them at coffee shops or restaurants.

Therma Bright, Inc. (TSX.V: THRM) (OTC: THRBF) and TransCanna Holdings Inc. (CSE: TCAN) congratulate Green Growth Brands upon this landmark deal it has finalized with Simon Property Group.

Quantum Minerals (OTC: QMCQF) (TSX.V: QMC) (FSE: 3LQ) recently received data from the mobile metal ion (“MMI”) geochemical soil survey carried out at its flagship project at the Irgon Lithium Mine.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Black Iron Inc. (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) Reaffirms Economics of Shymanivske Project Based on Spike in Iron Ore Prices

February 14, 2019 10:39:22

Canadian iron ore exploration and development company Black Iron (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) this morning reaffirmed economic projections for its Shymanivske project, citing a weeks-long surge in iron ore prices after Vale, one of the world’s largest iron ore producers, took 11 mines offline, significantly hindering supply. The shut-down of Vale’s mines represents ~6% of global consumption with a combined production loss of 70Mtpa. In response, Iron ore prices spiked to the current US$87/T for benchmark 62 percent iron content fines and US$106/T for 65 percent iron content fines. While analysts have mixed projections on the length of time the iron content benchmark price will stay at elevated levels, there is consensus that prices of iron content products, more specifically prices for iron ore pellet products, will increase for at least the next few years as the industry responds to lower supply. As a result, the premium 68 percent iron pellet feed product that Black Iron plans to produce is expected to sell for a significantly higher price than benchmark iron ore for at least the next two to three years. The company intends to build its Shymanivske project in two phases, taking advantage of its proximity to rail, power, ports and skilled labor to reduce upfront capital and time required to generate cashflows.  The first phase of the Shymanivske project, expected to produce 4 million tonnes a year, requires a capital investment of US$436 million. An additional US$312 million is required to double the Shymanivske project’s production capacity to 8 million tonnes, which could potentially be fully funded from the free cash generated by phase 1 production.

About Black Iron Inc.

Black Iron is an iron ore exploration and development company, advancing its 100 percent owned Shymanivske project located in Kryviy Rih, Ukraine. The Shymanivske project contains a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimated to be 646 Mt Measured and Indicated mineral resources, consisting of 355 Mt Measured mineral resources grading 31.6 percent total iron and 18.8 percent magnetic iron, and Indicated mineral resources of 290 Mt grading 31.1 percent total iron and 17.9 percent magnetic iron, using a cut-off grade of 10 percent magnetic iron. Additionally, the Shymanivske project contains 188 Mt of Inferred mineral resources grading 30.1 percent total iron and 18.4 percent magnetic iron. Full mineral resource details can be found in the NI 43-101 compliant technical report entitled “Preliminary Economic Assessment of the Re-scoped Shymanivske Iron Ore Deposit” effective November 21, 2017, under the company’s profile on SEDAR.

Vertical Integration Offers Profit Potential within Growing Cannabis Industry

February 14, 2019 09:00:27

CannabisNewsWire Editorial Coverage: As the cannabis industry continues its impressive growth, acquisitions are leading to greater vertical integration.

  • Companies within the cannabis sector are acquiring other organizations to benefit from valuable specialist knowledge and skills.
  • Such deals allow vertically integrated value chains, as have also been applied in industries such as coffee production.
  • This comes amid wider growth in the sector, which is drawing substantial outside investment.

420 with CNW – Consolidation Starts Taking Shape in the US Cannabis Industry

February 14, 2019 04:20:17

Like any emerging industry, the cannabis industry has reached that time when consolidation starts taking place. Several reasons have made such a step inevitable.

First, way too many businesses rush to get licences in each state that legalizes recreational or medical marijuana. Not all those businesses that open are likely to succeed, so it is only logical that the ones not doing well get gobbled up by those that are having a better run in the market.

Secondly, too many companies in a restricted marketplace trigger a rush to the bottom. The different pricing models adopted to get an edge in the market exert pressure on the profit margins of all the companies involved. Before long, many start falling by the wayside, and the stronger ones acquire those that are failing or struggling.

Thirdly, the risk of oversupply also creates fertile ground for consolidation. Most cannabis businesses are forced to be vertically integrated because of the clash between federal law and state-level laws. Many therefore end up growing cannabis that they are unable sell, and these stockpiles lock up a lot of valuable capital. The entities that command a bigger share of the retail space often end up acquiring those with excess supply.

These forces are already exerting their impact upon the nascent cannabis industry in the U.S. Last year, MedMen Enterprises announced that it was acquiring PharmaCann in a deal worth $682 million. However, this deal still has a few more months before they put ink to paper.

In the meantime, iAnthus Capital Holdings last week closed on a deal to acquire MPX Bioceutical. This acquisition is worth more than $630 million. This makes it the largest marijuana deal in the U.S. so far. The MedMen deal will eclipse it when it is finally concluded, but that is still months away.

With the stroke of a pen, iAnthus Capital Holdings has increased its footprint from just six states to 11 after the acquisition of MPX Bioceutical. The number of licensed dispensaries has also grown from 19 to 63, all without the hassles and costs associated with processing new applications in all those jurisdictions.

The deal also now gives iAnthus a combined grow space of 210,000 square feet. The company targets to expand this to 600,000 square feet so that all the stores/dispensaries can be amply supplied in the coming years.

The cannabis industry, including The Flowr Corporation (TSX.V: FLWR) (OTC: FLWPF) and The Green Organic Dutchman (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) welcome any consolidation that helps to deepen and stabilize the cannabis industry.

420 with CNW – North Dakota Considers Amendments to Improve Access to Medical Marijuana

February 13, 2019 16:20:47

As North Dakota inches closer to making medical marijuana available to residents, a number of proposals have been brought before the legislature in order to make it easier for patients to access the drug once it becomes available.

One of the most important proposals being considered seeks to include physician assistants among the medical professionals that can certify patients who need medical marijuana cards. The current law only permits advanced practice nurses and physicians to certify patients.

Adding physician assistants to this list would give patients a wider scope of professionals that they can contact for a recommendation.

Another major change that is proposed entails removing the requirement compelling doctors to assert that the patient being recommended will benefit from consuming medical cannabis. This certification requirement has been a major stumbling block in the way of patients who want a recommendation because doctors were uneasy about committing to the efficacy of a drug for a given health condition in the absence of sufficient research backing up the suitability of treating such a condition using medical marijuana.

If the change is adopted, doctors will only be required to state that medical cannabis may help the patient having a qualifying condition. It is hoped that more patients will be able to get recommendations once this change is made.

State statistics show that just about 100 patients had secured medical cannabis cards from October last year when applications started being received. This dismal number was largely due to the reluctance of doctors to certify patients based on the guidelines set in the law passed in 2016.

There is another proposal to include cannabis edibles among the different forms of cannabis that patients can access. This addition is likely to be a welcome one, especially for patients who are uneasy about smoking marijuana. Edibles are more discreet.

While lawmakers are considering proposals to expand the list of qualifying conditions, some advocates are campaigning for a different approach to this matter. They say that it is more sustainable to give the Department of Health the authority to add to the list of qualifying conditions as more research becomes available instead of having to amend the law whenever additional conditions need to be included on that list.

The call of the advocates seems reasonable, because it allows the list of qualifying conditions to grow continuously without the lengthy procedures of the legislative process.

All in all, it is good that the legislature is fine tuning the law so that the beneficiaries (patients) aren’t subjected to any avoidable inconveniences. Sunniva Inc. (CSE: SNN) (OTCQB: SNNVF) and Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX.V: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) welcome these changes that will ease access to medical cannabis.

Pressure BioSciences (OTCQB: PBIO), a leader in the development and sale of high pressure-based instruments, consumables, and related services for the global life sciences industry, today released a short video that demonstrates its proprietary Ultra Shear Technology (“UST”) platform and its ability to create nanoemulsions (extremely small, nanometer-scale oil droplets that effectively dissolve in water) to provide optimized bioavailability for absorption. “We have all observed how oil and water do not normally mix or dissolve in each other, and routinely separate after mixing,” Pressure BioSciences Chief Commercial Officer Dr. Bradford A. Young said in the news release. “Even with modern, advanced mixing technologies, oils remain in relatively large drops in water, which are poorly absorbed by the body. PBI’s proprietary UST platform employs ultra-high pressure and extreme shearing forces to create very small, nano-scale emulsions (nanoemulsions) of oil droplets in water with vastly improved absorption and stability characteristics.”

NetworkNewsBreaks – First Cobalt Corp. (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQX: FTSSF) Extends Mineralization at Iron Creek Project; Intersects High Grade Copper

February 13, 2019 09:31:33

First Cobalt (TSX.V: FCC) (OTCQX: FTSSF) (ASX: FCC), a North American pure-play cobalt company, this morning reported drill results extending the strike and width of the mineralized zones at its Iron Creek Cobalt Project. The results also identified additional copper-rich areas to the west of the deposit. Among other highlights, the company reported that the cobalt-copper mineralization was extended by 120 meters to the west along strike in the Waite Zone and to a depth of 300 meters. Results show that the western portion of the No Name Zone is distinctly copper-rich, having intercepted broad widths of copper mineralization including 2.22% Cu over 13.4m in ICS18-12. As the cobalt and copper mineralization between the No Name and Waite zones consistently grow, the area now spans 800 continuous meters. “The Iron Creek deposit in Idaho, USA is one of a few primary cobalt deposits in the world and it also derives substantial value from copper mineralization. Today’s results support our view that copper-rich areas provide options for mine planning. There are 18 drill holes pending which will be included in an updated mineral resource estimate that is expected at the end of March. We anticipate a notable enhancement over the maiden resource estimate we released in September with still further upside, as the deposit remains open in all directions,” First Cobalt CEO Trent Mell stated in the news release.

420 with CNW – Marijuana Linked to Higher Sperm Concentrations

February 13, 2019 04:20:31

New research has revealed that men who smoke or have ever smoked cannabis have a higher concentration of sperm when compared to those who have never smoked marijuana. This study was conducted at Massachusetts General Hospital.

The team of researchers, led by a group based at Harvard Chan School of Public Health, based their work on a hypothesis that smoking marijuana would have an adverse effect (poor quality sperm) on the reproductive health of men.

They selected that hypothesis because some previous research seemed to suggest that smoking marijuana was detrimental to male reproductive health. However, those previous studies may have been flawed because they focused on men with drug abuse problems or the research was conducted on mice.

Nevertheless, this research sought to dig deeper into the link between smoking cannabis and sperm health.

To this end, the researchers obtained semen samples from 662 men. These samples (totaling 1,143) were collected for nearly two decades from 2000 to 2017. The men were approximately 36 years old and they were largely white with college degrees.

317 men from that group of participants also provided blood samples to the researchers. These blood samples were analyzed to check for the presence of reproductive hormones.

Additionally, the study participants were asked to fill a questionnaire about their use of marijuana. The questions included whether those men had ever smoked a total of two or more marijuana joints in their lives, and whether they were current cannabis smokers.

55 percent (a total of 365 of that group) of the study subjects admitted that they had ever smoked cannabis. From this number, 11 percent said they still smoked cannabis while 44 percent said they no longer did.

The researchers discovered that the men who smoked or had ever smoked cannabis had approximately 62.7 million sperms in each milliliter of ejaculate. The average sperm concentration for those who said they had never smoked cannabis was 45.4 million in each milliliter of ejaculate.

The World Health Organization puts the threshold for normal sperm concentration at 15million/mL of ejaculate. Interestingly, only 5 percent of the men who smoked cannabis had concentrations lower than this threshold while those who had never smoked had 12 percent of their members registering sperm concentrations that were below this threshold.

Serum testosterone was also higher among men who smoked or had ever smoked cannabis when compared to those who had never done so.

Feiby Nassan, the lead author of this research, warned that their findings should be taken with some caution because the researchers were aware that there is so much that may be going in the bodies of the study participants to explain why the results came out the way they did.

For example, the compounds in cannabis may work with the endocannabinoid system, thereby boosting male fertility.

On the other hand, one can also claim that men who have higher testosterone may be more likely to smoke cannabis since this hormone makes them more likely to indulge in risky behavior.

All in all, the researchers appealed for more research to be conducted on how marijuana affects the reproductive system and the entire body. This is exactly why cannabis industry players like Redfund Capital Corp. (CSE: LOAN) (OTC: PNNRF) (Frankfurt: O3X4) and SinglePoint, Inc. (OTCQB: SING) have been hoping that the U.S. federal government eases its restrictions on cannabis so that American researchers can add onto what researchers elsewhere are doing to increase the available knowledge about cannabis.

420 with CNW – First Marijuana Hearing Scheduled in Congress

February 12, 2019 16:20:14

In the past, all the bills and measures related to cannabis have been voted out by a Congress that was dominated by Republicans. Now the Democrats have control of the House, and the first hearing on cannabis has been scheduled for tomorrow (February 13).

This particular hearing is slated to consider making legal changes to federal laws so that cannabis businesses can access banking services.

The hearing is titled “Challenges and Solutions: Access to Banking Services for Cannabis-Related Businesses.” This hearing is intended to address the problems that legitimate marijuana-related businesses face when trying to access banking services.

For example, while state-level laws may permit cannabis businesses to open and operate in these jurisdictions, federal laws govern the banking industry and these federal laws don’t allow players in the banking industry to do business with firms involved with cannabis.

Many cannabis businesses have therefore been left with no choice but to operate on a cash basis, and stories abound of businesses that keep their earnings in sacks. In some places, unions and some banks have defied the federal government and decided to take on marijuana businesses as clients.

Even then, only limited banking services are provided by those few banks or unions that decide to accept marijuana businesses as clients. This has constrained the ability of cannabis businesses to obtain credit or even get basic banking services affordably.

It should be remembered that federal banking laws impose strict reporting requirements upon any financial institution that works with a company that is involved in an industry that is regarded as illegal. These reporting requirements inflate the cost of getting banking services.

Congressman Denny Heck, who has been an advocate of the cannabis industry for years, revealed that the hearing plans to address those issues so that the cannabis industry can handle its finances in a way that can easily be tracked by regulators for different purposes, such as ensuring that these businesses are paying their taxes as expected.

This hearing is one of the signs that cannabis may be a major issue during this legislative session. This is a positive step that hasn’t come too soon given the fact that the majority (33) of the states in the union have legalized marijuana, including at least 10 states that now allow recreational marijuana.

It makes sense that federal laws need to be reformed so that there is some kind of alignment between what is happening in the different states and the position of the federal government. Sproutly Canada, Inc. (OTCQB: SRUTF) (CSE: SPR) (FRA: 38G), Sugarmade, Inc. (OTCQB: SGMD) and everyone in the marijuana industry is waiting with bated breath to see what will come of this hearing tomorrow.

Iron Ore Prices Going Up, Market Dynamics Create Significant New Opportunities for Black Iron Inc. (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN)

February 12, 2019 10:11:59
  • License revocation and production cuts involving world’s largest iron ore producer have already contributed to upward price trends in the iron ore market
  • Existing shortage in pellet production feed expected to worsen as a result of recent events in Brazil
  • These latest market developments are creating positive conditions and opportunities for industry representatives like Black Iron that already benefit from strategic advantages

The world is anticipating an annual iron ore production loss of 70 million metric tons after Brazilian state regulators revoked the license for the second-largest iron ore mine owned by Vale (NYSE: VALE) – the world’s largest iron ore miner – on February 5, Bloomberg reported (http://nnw.fm/tAeU3). The 30 million metric tons of production lost at this mine are in addition to Vale’s earlier announcement that it is taking 10 of its mines with upstream tailings dams out of production, representing 40 million metric tons of production. The license revocation is providing strong indications that company operations are not going to return to normal in the near future. Vale SA came under strict government scrutiny after a fatal accident caused the death of over 150 people and halted mining operations on January 25, 2019.

As a result of the license revocation and suspension of operations, Vale declared force majeure on some of its…

420 with CNW – Chronic Pain Tops Reasons for Medical Cannabis Use in America

February 12, 2019 04:20:03

A new study has found that most Americans use medical marijuana in order to ease chronic pain. The study was aimed at finding out the exact reasons why people in the U.S. use medical marijuana, and whether those stated reasons have any scientific basis.

Kevin Boehnke, a researcher at Michigan University’s Chronic Pain and Fatigue Research Center, led the team of researchers who started by analyzing a report that was written in 2017 on the use of medical marijuana. This report was written by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering and Medicine.

That 2017 report found either conclusive or substantial proof that cannabis eased nausea, muscle spasms, vomiting and chronic pain.

Boehnke and his team also found that in 2016, the number of people who were registered to use medical cannabis was 641,000. This number rose to 814,000 the following year (2017). However, the researchers believe that the actual number of medical cannabis users exceeds the statistics captured in the report they read.

The statistics show that 85.5 percent of medical cannabis card holders were convinced that there was science backing their desire to use medical cannabis for the different qualifying conditions they suffered from. Chronic pain topped the list of qualifying conditions taking up 62 percent of all applications for medical cannabis cards.

The team of researchers wasn’t surprised by their findings regarding chronic pain given that approximately 100 million Americans are estimated to suffer from chronic pain.

Many of those medical cannabis users, such as Brandian Smith from Illinois, say that they resorted to medical cannabis because it worked better than the prescription opiates that they had been using previously.

This anecdotal evidence from actual medical cannabis users, together with the scientific studies that prove that medical marijuana can combat chronic pain, may offer a ray of hope in the fight against the opioid crisis in the U.S.

Currently, 33 states have legalized the use of medical marijuana. 10 states, as well as the District of Columbia, have decriminalized adult-use marijuana. These 33 states can potentially start a wave rolling back the opioid problem if this matter is given more attention.

For now, the federal government remains adamant that marijuana hasn’t been proved to have any medical use, so it remains a Schedule 1 substance. Boehnke and his team of researchers feel strongly that their findings make a case for changing the federal government’s position so that cannabis can be integrated in the medical system of the country. Phivida Holdings Inc. (CSE: VIDA) (OTCQX: PHVAF) and Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) couldn’t agree more with Kevin Boehnke’s conclusions.

420 with CNW – Oregon Lawmaker Introduces Bill to Protect Cannabis Users Who Need Organ Transplants

February 11, 2019 16:20:58

A Portland lawmaker, Rep. Rob Nosse, has introduced House Bill 2687 geared at ensuring that medical cannabis users aren’t removed from the waiting list for organ transplants in the State.

This Bill will prevent medical practitioners from recommending that medical cannabis users be removed from the waiting list for organ transplants managed by different organizations in the State, such as United Network for Organ Sharing.

Approximately 850 people in Oregon are waiting to get a suitable match for an organ transplant, yet just 340 transplant surgeries were performed in the state last year.

Many of those people on the waiting list resort to medical marijuana in order to alleviate their severe symptoms.

In response to the bill introduced by Nosse, many of the transplant centers in Oregon denied that they turn away anyone who tests positive for marijuana.

Piseth Pich, one of Legacy Health’s community relations officials in Portland, revealed that their center assesses patients based on a number of requirements, including drugs tests, as a way to understand that patient’s overall health condition before that person is declared suitable for a transplant.

Pich added that it is hard to put a number on how many people who have been found unsuitable just by looking at only factor since suitability is determined on the basis of multiple factors.

It is common for someone to wait for years before ever finding a suitable organ, and even after the transplant process many people’s bodies reject the donated organ as foreign.

Representatives of the different transplant centers have expressed reservations about Nosse’s bill. For example, they say that the bill wants to make it legal for the transplant centers to disregard a factor that can have a bearing on the likely success of a transplant procedure.

While appearing before the House Committee on Health Care, Nosse presented a woman, Robin Socherman, whose situation can be regarded as a case study of what medical marijuana users go through when they need an organ transplant.

Robin Socherman is interested in donating a kidney to her husband, but he was removed from the waiting list after he tested positive for marijuana. Her husband, Jake Socherman, started using medical marijuana about six years ago to combat back pain. This pain has since been linked to his enlarged kidneys.

The transplant center advised Jake to stop using medical cannabis in order to be eligible for an organ transplant. However, he resumed using marijuana after his symptoms got worse, and the transplant center promptly removed him from the waiting list.

Nosse told the committee that cases like that of Socherman prompted him to introduce the bill so that medical cannabis users aren’t victimized when they need an organ. MustGrow Biologics Corp., Net Element (NASDAQ: NETE) and the entire marijuana industry agree that people like Jake Socherman need to be given all the legal protections that they can get so that their health doesn’t suffer just because they are consuming a legal product.

NetworkNewsBreaks – TransCanna Holdings Inc. (CSE: TCAN) (FSE: TH8) Prepares to Pounce on California Cannabis Distribution, Transportation Markets

February 11, 2019 14:34:44

TransCanna Holdings (CSE: TCAN) (FSE: TH8), through its affiliate TCM Distribution Inc. (“TCMD”), has secured local licenses in Adelanto, California, and recently secured a California temporary distribution license. In addition, TransCanna also completed its initial public offering (“IPO”) for total gross proceeds of C$2.2 million, which will be used to fund its general working capital for the next 12 months including its entry into California’s cannabis transportation and branding market, per a prospectus filed on SEDAR in December (http://nnw.fm/lMN9w). A recent article discussing the company reads, “Transporting cannabis products in California remains challenging in the months following full legalization because of a patchwork variety of local and state regulations. Companies regulated by the U.S. Department of Transportation are barred from transporting the material, because cannabis sales remain illegal under federal law. . . . ‘Cannabis distribution and transportation is a relatively new sector of the overall cannabis industry in California, as a result of the state of California regulating all cannabis related activities effective January 1, 2018,’ the prospectus reads. ‘There are various types of licenses issued by the state of California in the cannabis industry, of which TCMD is applying for a cannabis distributor and transportation license. Currently there is a limited pool of distribution and transportation companies operating in this area.’”
