420 with CNW – Study Says Dabbing is the Most Efficient Way to Consume Cannabis

February 11, 2019 04:20:00

Have you ever wondered which delivery method offers the best results when you are consuming cannabis? A recent study has concluded that “dabbing” is superior to the other common ways of getting cannabis into your bloodstream.

Forensic Science International conducted the study whose findings showed that “dabbing” delivered at least 75 percent of the THC in cannabis to your lungs. This is in contrast to smoking which destroys the same percentage (75 percent) of THC before it can reach your lungs.

Dabbing refers to inhaling the vapor from a heated extract of cannabis. The extract is heated to boiling point on a ceramic, titanium or quartz surface.

The experiment involved the use of a machine that was built by Forensic Science International specifically for this research. This machine was able to replicate smoking and dabbing. The researchers collected the smoke which would have made its way into someone’s lungs and they analyzed those samples to know how much CBD and THC they contained. This proportion formed what they called the “recovery rate” of those delivery methods.

The recovery rates stated above (75 percent for dabbing and 25 percent for smoking) were established after analyzing the collected samples.

Previous studies had put the recovery rate for smoking at 27.5-46.3 percent, which is still a far cry from the 75 percent registered for dabbing. Other research also gave vaping a higher recovery rate (51.4-82.7 percent) when compared to smoking. The recovery rates for vaping varied based on the specific vaporizer that one was using.

However, these studies on the recovery rates of the different cannabis delivery methods should be regarded with some caution because the results were clearly dependent on the temperature used during dabbing. Lower temperatures tended to give higher recovery rates, partly because a smaller proportion of the ingredients in cannabis was destroyed by the heat while higher temperatures reduced the recovery rates of dabbing to just over 50 percent.

Another factor that may contribute to the results obtained is the composition of the extracts used during dabbing. For example, heating the “acid form” of THC, called THCA, resulted in higher recovery rates because when that THCA was heated, it produced THC. Conversely, heating THC reduced the recovery rate because once you heat THC, some of it becomes something else, thereby reducing the quantity of THC reaching the lungs.

Similarly, smoking cannabis shouldn’t be dismissed as a wasteful way to consume cannabis. After all, consumers agree they get a range of physiological effects when they smoke. This may be due to some of the new compounds created once THC is heated. Thus, cannabis smokers may derive special experiences that aren’t available to those who use other delivery methods.

The bottom line? Whatever method you use to consume your cannabis will deliver the benefits expected by the industry players, such as Marijuana Company of America Inc. (OTCQB: MCOA) and Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC: REFG). Only the degree of those effects will vary.

420 with CNW – Cannabis Could Prevent Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy, Researchers Reveal

February 8, 2019 16:20:57

Many athletes, such as footballers, commit suicide or die as a result of the brain trauma caused while they engage in contact sports. Chronic traumatic endephalopathy (CTE), a degenerative neurological condition, is one such brain trauma disease that conventional medicine has found so hard to prevent or treat partly because the condition can only be diagnosed posthumously. Now a number of scientists and researchers are suggesting that cannabis may help to prevent or alleviate the symptoms of this disease whose victims are mainly athletes (particularly footballers).

One study conducted in Israel found that the use of cannabis improved blood flow to the brain and prevented brain tissues from dying. While this study was conducted on rats and mice with head trauma, it brings hope for a solution to a problem from which 99 percent of all dead NFL players suffered, researchers say.

Another study conducted in the U.S. concluded that cannabis possesses neuro-protective properties because of the antioxidants it contains. In fact, Kyle Turley, a retired NFL player, uses cannabis to treat the traumatic brain injury he suffers from resulting from his days as a player. Turley was also a friend of another NFL player, Junior Seau, who fatally shot himself in 2012. Brain specialists who examined samples of Seau’s brain found that his suicidal tendency was due to CTE.

Apart from causing people to be suicidal, CTE causes depression, aggression, confusion, dementia and mood swings.

Turley is now an avid advocate for the use of cannabis to treat neurological conditions, especially among athletes.

His mission isn’t farfetched because a number of companies have been developing cannabis-based remedies for different neurological conditions. For example, KannaLife Sciences is developing a synthetic cannabis pill that is intended to prevent CTE in athletes. The company also makes other CBD-based remedies.

Another company, GW Pharmaceuticals, has already obtained FDA approval for Epidiolex, a CBD-based drug that can treat two forms of rare pediatric epilepsy. Epilepsy is a neurological condition, just like CTE. Epidiolex has already proved to be effective for some of the kids with the forms of epilepsy for which it was developed.

It should be noted that treating brain injury isn’t achieved by CBD alone. A study whose findings were published in The American Surgeon showed that patients who suffered brain injuries and tested positive for THC suffered fewer fatalities than those who didn’t test positive for THC.

Such findings provide good news to Green Hygienics Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: GRYN) and other players in the cannabis industry like Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) because it offers a possible solution to a problem (CTE) that could be affecting millions of athletes.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Green Hygienics Holdings Inc. (GRYN) Aims to Make the Most of Recent Legislative Changes

February 8, 2019 13:37:39

Full-scope, premium cannabis company Green Hygienics Holdings (OTCQB: GRYN) is poised to benefit from recent legislative changes in San Diego that could help it expand to the region, despite increased competition over cultivation land. GRYN plans to introduce its brands to the San Diego market first, before moving on to the rest of the United States and then internationally. A recent article discussing the company reads, “The approvals in San Diego are a part of a larger, nationwide initiative aimed at supporting recreational cannabis sales. The attempt was first made legal in California about two years ago, when the state approved Proposition 64. At this time, California became the fifth state to legalize recreational marijuana use, and, since then, a few others have followed in its footsteps. . . . The San Diego developments are indicative of a much broader adoption that’s taking place on a national scale. The 2018 Federal Farm Bill was passed by the U.S. Congress with strong bipartisan support on December 12, 2018 (http://nnw.fm/l0dH7). The $867 billion bill allocates significant subsidies to American farmers, and even more importantly, it legalizes hemp.

420 with CNW – Florida Judge Rules that Cap on Dispensaries is Unconstitutional

February 8, 2019 04:20:45

A Circuit Court Judge, Karen Gievers, has ruled that the state and the health department in Florida violated the constitution when they imposed a cap on the number of dispensaries that a licensed business could open within the state.

Trulieve sued the state and asked court to strike down the cap on dispensaries that had been imposed limiting each business to a maximum of 30 outlets. Initially, the cap was at 25 but it was raised to 30.

The plaintiff successfully argued that patients could get better access to medical marijuana treatment centers at an affordable cost if more dispensaries were available instead of forcing patients to incur the cost of vehicle delivery of cannabis to their addresses.

The company had also argued that the ban, which was imposed long after they had opened a number of outlets, affected their business since they wouldn’t have opened dispensaries in some locations had they had prior awareness of that cap. Trulieve therefore asked court to nullify that cap so that their business isn’t unnecessarily hampered.

The judge agreed and wrote in her ruling that the state didn’t have any plausible reason to impose such a restriction on legally licensed businesses. Furthermore, the judge observed that the cap wasn’t mentioned anywhere in the constitutional amendment legalizing medical cannabis.

The state made a vain attempt to justify the cap by saying that the local and state authorities needed time to study how to regulate medical cannabis. Judge Gievers threw out this argument saying that the constitutional amendment didn’t provide for such “study” and that she didn’t get evidence of what needed to be “studied” for three years.

She argued that the state had ample time to study medical cannabis regulation as much as they wanted before the first medical cannabis law was passed years back in 2014.

This same judge lifted the ban on smoking medical cannabis and gave the state a dressing down for the blatant way in which it was disregarding constitutional provisions while implementing the medical marijuana program. The previous Governor, Rick Scott, appealed against that ruling and left office before the appeal was heard.

Recently, Gov. DeSantis threatened to withdraw from pursuing that appeal if the legislature didn’t amend the law to allow patients to smoke medical cannabis. He gave the legislators a few weeks to act or else the courts will be left to change the law by judicial declaration.

Golden Developing Solutions, Inc. (OTC: DVLP), Green Growth Brands, Inc. (CSE: GGB) (OTCQB: GGBXF) and the whole industry welcomes the decision of the court since patients in Florida will now have medical cannabis dispensaries closer to them.

420 with CNW – Baby Boomers are a Growing Cannabis Market

February 7, 2019 16:20:19

Statistics have it that baby boomers are a rapidly growing market segment in the cannabis industry, and any firm looking to get a foothold in this industry needs to pay attention to this demographic.

Why This Group Matters

First, baby boomers are no longer taking care of kids, and many are approaching retirement. This means that this group has accumulated some resources and they have disposable income that they can spend on cannabis. Who wouldn’t want a potential client that has money to spend?

Secondly, cannabis isn’t an altogether new substance to these people. Many of them sampled the product or know someone who did during their younger years. It will therefore not be as if you are starting from scratch if you want to get these people to buy your cannabis products.

Thirdly, baby boomers tend to be brand-loyal, so it makes sense to get to them early before a competitor wins their loyalty. Getting them to switch from one brand to another can be a monumental undertaking that you don’t want to attempt.

Crucially, many baby boomers have health conditions for which medical cannabis can be a viable solution. For example, arthritis and chronic pain plague a significant fraction of this demographic. Positioning your products as the products to ease their pains and alleviate other ailments can pay off in a big way.

How to Get Your Foot In

Each demographic has its own unique characteristics that businesses must understand in order to win their patronage. For starters, baby boomers are more likely to pay attention to word of mouth recommendations when compared to other marketing efforts. Crack this method and you will have them buying from you in droves.

Another way to get this demographic is by making it easy for them to access your products. Many among them have mobility challenges while some may be concerned about keeping their cannabis use discreet. Home delivery and shuttle services can address these concerns and boost your sales.

Additionally, this group is what some may call “old fashioned.” Product information should be given to them during face-to-face interactions, especially at the dispensary or retail outlet. Cannabis businesses that are designed to make this possible will get a sizeable share of the clientele in this group.

The cannabis industry, especially Generation Alpha Inc. (OTCQB: GNAL) and Global Payout Inc. (OTC: GOHE) will definitely find ways to meet all the needs of the different age groups, including the baby boomers.

NetworkNewsBreaks – CybiWealth’s Digital Platform Creates Greater Access to Low-Cost Investment in Market Leading Companies

February 7, 2019 11:40:28

Multifaceted financial news and publishing company NetworkNewsWire (“NNW”) today announced an update highlighting financial disruptor CybiWealth, which is presenting at this week’s London-based Finovate Europe conference. The company’s new digital investment platform is designed to create greater access to investing by enabling young and first-time investors to buy direct shares in global companies at extremely low costs. CybiWealth’s approach also allows investors to become the beneficial owners of the shares, allowing them to, unlike mutual funds, hold shares in their own name rather than indirect investment. The platform also simplifies the fee structure for investors with removal of administration and entry or exit fees. “Our solution offers these investors the chance to buy a managed international share portfolio that features market leading companies with household names such as Coca-Cola, Colgate and L’Oréal. But whereas other similar share portfolios often require a minimum investment in the region of £25,000, investors in CybiWealth only need £500 to get started,” CybiWealth CEO Scott Cooper said in the release.

420 with CNW – Why the US is Unlikely to Legalize Cannabis in 2019

February 7, 2019 04:20:50

The year of 2018 registered some major wins for marijuana (Canada legalized recreational cannabis, the FDA made history by approving a cannabis-derived drug, more states legalized marijuana, public opinion is at an all-time high in favor of legalization, etc.), and that has led many cannabis advocates to expect 2019 to bring even better news along the lines of the U.S. federal government legalizing marijuana. However, this is unlikely to happen this year for a number of reasons.

The Senate isn’t Warm to Marijuana

While Congress is now dominated by Democrats (and Democrats have a history of being friendly to cannabis law reform), the Senate is still firmly in the hands of Republicans. Even the recent polls that show massive support for cannabis legalization reveal a small majority of Republicans supporting legalization (53 percent, according to the latest Gallup poll) while Democrats (75 percent) support the end of cannabis prohibition. This means that even if Congress passed a bill to legalize marijuana, such a bill is unlikely to make it past the Senate this year.

Marijuana isn’t Yet Divisive Enough to Cost Politicians their Jobs

The elected representatives on Capitol Hill don’t yet feel that their position on marijuana can cost them their jobs. Some opinion polls conducted last year discovered that a large majority of people (82 percent) would still vote for a politician even if that candidate had a different view on marijuana from that of the voter.

What such polls show is that politicians are unlikely to take the public’s views on marijuana seriously if the voters don’t put their representatives on the spot over the issue. Consequently, it is unlikely that marijuana will be legalized federally, unless the subject becomes so polarizing that political offices can be lost or earned based on this one issue alone.

There’s Money Involved

The role of money also rears its head on matters of cannabis legalization. Under the present legal framework, marijuana companies are subjected to very high corporate tax rates (as high as 90 percent). This is because such companies cannot claim corporate tax deductions since they deal in a substance that is federally illegal.

Legalizing cannabis would change the section of the tax code applicable to pot companies, and the federal government may lose approximately $5 billion over five years in corporate taxes from these companies. The federal government may be unable to recoup this money from the federal excise tax on legal marijuana sales since some states already have very high state-level excise taxes on cannabis, hence any increase can effectively be an advert for the cannabis black market. So, 2019 may not be the year for cannabis legalization at the federal level until a solution to this money conundrum is found.

While the issues above appear to be serious individually, the views of the voters can trigger a dramatic shift in the way cannabis is regarded at the federal level. The cannabis industry, including ChineseInvestors.com (OTCQB: CIIX) and Choom Holdings Inc. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF) can only wait for that time when pressure from below forces the federal government to end cannabis prohibition.

420 with CNW – Canadian Marijuana Producer Uses Fish in a Unique Way

February 6, 2019 16:20:08

As the cannabis industry matures, a number of innovations have been introduced in order to optimize marijuana grow operations. A Canadian producer is using fish to reduce how much water the marijuana grow uses while getting a better yield compared to conventional growing methods.

Green Relief Inc., based in Ontario, is using underground aquaponics to grow cannabis and raise freshwater fish as well. This one-of-a-kind method has enabled the cannabis producer to reduce their water consumption by up to 90 percent while increasing marijuana harvests by 20 percent.

In this cutting-edge system, the cannabis plants clean the water in which the fish live and grow while the fish provide wastes that are filtered to provide fertilizers for the cannabis plants. Consequently, the grow operation doesn’t use any artificial fertilizers or pesticides to produce cannabis for the market.

The company revealed that it opted for this sustainable way of growing cannabis and raising fish because any business that isn’t eco-friendly will soon be pushed out of the market since it will be regarded as a dinosaur. The only sign that one can see of this Ontario grow facility is its ventilation equipment sticking out of the hillside. Everything else is underground.

The closed-loop system used by Green Relief raises 6,000 fish (tilapia) and grows 4,500 marijuana plants. Every month or so, the company harvests the fish in one of its 16 fish tanks. 300 fully-grown tilapia from each harvest is donated to a charity that runs a soup kitchen for the homeless.

Green Relief is currently constructing other grow facilities in Hamilton, Halifax and Thunder Bay. The company plans to list on the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE) in order to raise funds to take their production to higher levels. Green Relief also wants to list on Nasdaq soon. The Green Relief IPO in Canada will take place within a few months.

While the company is looking to strengthen its position locally, it is also taking steps to nurture an international presence to take advantage of the position of Canada as a global leader in the cannabis industry.

Warren Bravo, the company’s director of business development, is finalizing arrangements to acquire properties in Australia and Italy. He is also hammering out joint venture deals with two major laboratories in Switzerland.

Earth Science Tech, Inc. (OTCQB: ETST), FinCanna Capital Corp. (CSE: CALI) (OTCQB: FNNZF) and the entire cannabis industry take their hats off to Green Relief for championing sustainable cannabis cultivation, as well as giving back to the community.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Why Black Iron Inc. (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) Is ‘One to Watch’

February 6, 2019 15:59:34

Canadian iron ore exploration and development company Black Iron (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) is focused on advancing to production its wholly owned Shymanivske Iron Ore Project, located in Krivyi Rih, Ukraine, in the southern part of the historic KrivBass iron ore mining district. An article discussing the company reads, “Black Iron’s Shymanivske’s project, which is expected to produce ultra-high-grade 68 percent iron content pellet feed iron concentrate, is generating significant interest from steel mills and global commodity trading houses. Use of ultra-high-grade 68 percent iron content product in the production of steel is a value-added product to customers since it increases blast furnace productivity and reduces greenhouse gas emissions generated per ton of steel produced. . . . The project’s proximity to rail lines (1 mile), electrical power (20 miles), seaports (140 to 260 miles) and a skilled workforce (6 miles) significantly reduces the up-front construction costs and allows for the mine to be built in a phased approach.”

420 with CNW – Cannabis should be Reclassified Internationally, Says World Health Organization Committee

February 6, 2019 04:20:26

According to a leaked letter written by the World Health Organization’s Director General (Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus) to the UN Secretary-General, marijuana should be rescheduled from the most restrictive categories to less strict categories in all international treaties.

The recommendations in this letter were scheduled to be released publicly last year in December but this didn’t happen for unknown reasons.

According to the recommendations of the expert committee that studied the matter, whole-plant marijuana and marijuana resin should be removed from schedule IV (the most restrictive category) and left in schedule I.

The World health Organization also wants to be categorical and state that any cannabis products that contain less than 0.2 percent THC content aren’t subjected to any international controls. Previously, CBD didn’t appear anywhere in the international treaties that categorize different substances, so it was unclear what the position of the international body was on this substance. The letter now puts this matter to rest.

These recommendations will go to the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs where 53 nations will cast a vote either to adopt the recommendations or reject them. Several countries, such as China and Russia, are expected to vote against the recommendations due to those countries’ history of being unwilling to see reforms in drugs laws.

However, other countries, such as Uruguay and Canada are certainly going to vote for reclassification, as will other European and South American countries where medical cannabis is legal.

It is harder to predict which way the U.S. vote will go. President Trump is quoted to have said that his administration respects the right of U.S. states to enact and implement their own marijuana laws, but the federal government has been reluctant to reform its own cannabis laws. One will therefore just have to wait and see how the U.S. representative at the UN votes when these recommendations are tabled.

While the recommendations contained in that WHO letter will not create any major legal shockwaves, they do have potentially serious political implications.

For starters, the rescheduling recommendations are a tacit admission that the UN and other world bodies made a grave error to classify marijuana as a substance that has no medicinal value. This decision seems to have been based on political considerations rather than being rooted in scientific data.

Secondly, the recommendations will embolden many countries to pass their own marijuana laws, as has been the case in the dozens of countries around the world that have legalized medical cannabis despite the current classification of marijuana as a substance with no known medical value.

Cannabis Strategic Ventures, Inc. (OTC: NUGS), Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSX.V: RIV) (OTC: CNPOF) and the cannabis industry in its entirety are waiting with bated breath to see how events will unfold worldwide once the recommendations of the UN are passed.

420 with CNW – Four Things You May Not Know about Cannabis Jobs in the US

February 5, 2019 16:20:36

Your mind may immediately go to the rate at which different states are legalizing marijuana when the cannabis industry in the U.S. is mentioned. However, there is so much that many people don’t know about the job market in the U.S. cannabis industry. Here are four facts you most likely didn’t know about employment in the cannabis industry in the U.S.

Hiring Has Increased By 76 Percent

According to a study conducted by Glassdoor, the number of available jobs in the cannabis industry in the U.S. has increased by 76 percent when compared to the number of jobs that were available in 2017. Additionally, the second half of the year saw the biggest jump in the number of cannabis jobs advertised throughout the country.

Cannabis Jobs Have Attractive Salaries

Contrary to what many people may think, jobs in the cannabis industry don’t pay minimum wage. The Glassdoor research revealed that the average base salary for the jobs advertised in the cannabis industry was $58,511 a year. That figure may not be glamorous on its own, but it takes on greater significance when you realize that the median base salary across the U.S. in general is approximately 11 percent lower than the median base salary of the cannabis industry jobs advertised. In fact, slightly more than 30 percent of the cannabis industry jobs advertised paid more than $70,000 as base salary. In short, the cannabis industry may be among the best-paying industries in the country!

Many of the Top Employment Destinations Aren’t Where Recreational Cannabis is Legal

One may be tempted to think that the greatest number of jobs are to be found in locations where recreational cannabis was legalized. This is only partially true because the Glassdoor data shows that cities in California ranked highest among the top destinations for marijuana industry jobs.

However, cities in states where only medical marijuana is legal also pulled their weight as top cannabis employment destinations. For example, New York City was fourth on the list of the top 15 cannabis employment destinations while Chicago was seventh on that list.

Most of the Top Employers Are Traded Publicly

It is possible for casual observers to imagine that only Canadian cannabis companies are publicly traded. However, while the Canadian companies get the lion’s share of publicity, American marijuana companies are also traded on different stock exchanges. For example, Green Thumb Industries is traded on Nasdaq and it was the top employer in the cannabis industry. Others are MedMen Enterprises and Truelive.

While the findings of the study were only based on the jobs advertised on Glassdoor, the general idea is that the cannabis industry is growing fast since employers can only take on new hires once those employers are sure of sustainable growth to justify the cost of additional employees. The Glassdoor research is therefore good news to the marijuana industry, including Youngevity International, Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) and VIVO Cannabis Inc. (TSX.V: VIVO) (OTCQX: VVCIF).

NetworkNewsBreaks – Golden Developing Solutions, Inc. (DVLP) Announces 149% Where’s Weed Q4 Revenue Growth, Expects Accelerating Platform Growth in Q1 and 2019

February 5, 2019 10:33:49

Emerging leader in the cannabis, hemp, and cannabidiol (“CBD”) marketplace Golden Developing Solutions (OTC: DVLP) this morning announced the continued acceleration in revenue growth for its Where’s Weed division, including 149 percent of quarterly year-over-year sales growth and total Q4 revenues exceeding $300K. Based on performance thus far this year, including January’s $108K in revenues, DVLP projects that Where’s Weed Q1 2019 revenue will eclipse the company’s full year 2018 results, representing continued accelerating growth of the company’s leading cannabis services platform. “The Where’s Weed platform hosted over $18M in transactions last year, and we continue to see booming results in terms of pace of adoption since we acquired the platform in September,” DVLP CEO Stavros Triant stated in the press release. “We made that move because we believed in two things: first, cannabis is a secular growth story with major legs over coming years; and second, most of that growth will migrate over into services now that we have already seen a boom in marijuana production capacity investment last year. So far, we haven’t seen anything to contradict that thesis.”

420 with CNW – Does the Tobacco Industry See its Future in Marijuana?

February 5, 2019 04:20:28

Tobacco cigarette sales have been on the decline in the U.S. for several decades now, and it seems the tobacco industry now sees its future in marijuana.

The major tobacco firms have been watching the cannabis industry as it evolves and they now think that having a part of this nascent industry holds the key to the tobacco industry’s future. The Big tobacco companies have several factors that favor their entry into the cannabis industry.

First, the tobacco industry has a well-known record of manufacturing products in a way that maximizes their addictive potential. You can therefore bet your last dollar that big tobacco will tap into this “heritage” to make marijuana products that will get their users hooked for life. Addiction is good for business because it assures you of repeat customers for decades to come.

Secondly, the tobacco industry has an extensive marketing network across the globe. This capability means that it will not be hard for the companies to get marijuana anywhere buyers or potential buyers may be. As you may know, several states, such as California, are already struggling with surplus supplies of cannabis. The marketing muscle of tobacco companies can fix that problem on a large scale.

Thirdly, tobacco firms have a long tradition of lobbying and navigating their way around tough legislative and regulatory scrutiny. This experience can be an invaluable resource to the cannabis industry that is struggling to shake off the association of marijuana with junkies and criminal gangs. Who knows, the lobbying resources of the tobacco industry can even make the federal government to move faster towards ending marijuana prohibition!

However, the tobacco industry does have some baggage that may make the cannabis industry jittery about jumping into bed with “big tobacco”.

For example, the tobacco industry didn’t win a lot of friends when it was discovered that the industry deliberately misled the public about the health and safety issues of cigarette smoking. Actually, the big players even used taxpayer money to find ways to make smokers addicted sooner!

Additionally, there’s agreement among experts that cigarettes are a product that will kill half of the people who use it as it was intended to be used. Cannabis industry players are a little uneasy about associating with an industry that has such a reputation.

That notwithstanding, a number of deals have already been struck between tobacco companies and players in the cannabis industry. One of the largest is one between Altria and Cronos Group worth $1.8 billion.

The cannabis industry, including TransCanna Holdings Inc. (CSE: TCAN) (FSE: TH8) and Therma Bright, Inc. (TSX.V: THRM) (OTC: THRBF), hopes that the tobacco industry doesn’t soil the reputation of cannabis as big tobacco jumps on the cannabis bandwagon.

420 with CNW – Baltimore to Stop Prosecuting People for Marijuana Possession

February 4, 2019 16:20:44

The chief prosecutor in the city of Baltimore has announced that people will no longer be prosecuted for possessing marijuana. This announcement comes as a wave legalization is sweeping across the nation, and marijuana is no longer seen as the evil substance that it once was thought to be.

Marilyn Mosby, state attorney for Baltimore, revealed that her office will immediately stop prosecuting cases of marijuana possession. This decision will apply regardless of how much marijuana someone has been found with, or what the criminal history of that person is.

Mosby added that no serious person can ever claim that devoting the city’s scarce law enforcement resources to prosecuting marijuana possession cases is a good way to use taxpayers’ money.

Baltimore has the unenviable record of being the major city across the country with the highest homicide rates, with most of those homicides going unsolved. Mosby wants to focus a lot more on solving those violent crimes instead of being bogged down by marijuana possession cases.

The chief prosecutor admitted that the city’s law enforcement agencies take a huge hit in terms of their public image each time murders go unsolved and yet they are seen vigilantly going after people possessing marijuana.

She gave the example of what a mother whose son has just died because of gun violence. Such a mother cannot condone the allocation of resources to prosecuting marijuana possession cases instead of using those very resources to investigate and bring violent crime down.

However, there may be a showdown brewing between the city prosecutor and the men and women of the police department over this change in policy. Gary Tuggle, the Police Commissioner of Baltimore, insisted that his department will continue making marijuana possession arrests until the legislature changes the law about the matter.

This potential standoff is a tricky one to resolve because each side may have valid arguments to support it. For example, the prosecutor sees that it doesn’t make sense to keep fighting something that is hardly harmful to the public, while the police is doing its work of enforcing the laws as passed by the legislature.

The question is, what will happen once suspects are arrested by the police and the prosecutor refuses to sanction any charges against those individuals?

The best way out is for these two sister departments to find a middle ground on this issue so that ordinary people aren’t caught in the crosshairs as the elephants fight. Such a stalemate isn’t in the best interest of the marijuana industry, especially The Green Organic Dutchman (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) and The Flowr Corporation (TSX.V: FLWR) (OTC: FLWPF).

The Wild West Crypto Show Features TRON Initial Coin Offering

February 4, 2019 15:42:46

If you were one of the many listeners who tuned into the recent episode (#45) of the Wild West Crypto Show (http://ccw.fm/mBUY9), you might now be a close follower of TRON. Drew Taylor and Brent Bates, hosts of the show, both gave the blockchain outfit, which is part social media platform and part entertainment portal, five shots from their six shooters.

A day later, the BitTorrent initial coin offering (“ICO”) put on by TRON garnered around $7 million in less than 15 minutes. Now that’s crypto speed! TRON purchased BitTorrent for $140 million in early 2018. Just as it did with TRON, the Wild West Crypto Show will continue to put the spotlight on cryptocurrency and blockchain enterprises that show promise.

 Jonathan Keim from CryptoCurrencyWire called during the show from the North American Bitcoin Conference, which took place at the James L. Knight Center in Miami. As part of the longest-running and most-attended conference series in the space, the event was buzzing with activity in the background while he gave a live report.

Keynote speakers included:

  • David Chaum, creator of a system to make electronic cash transactions anonymous
  • Patrick Byrne, founder of Overstock.com
  • Halsey Minor, founder of CNET

As part of its collaboration as the official newswire of the conference, CryptoCurrencyWire leveraged the 31-brand Investor Brand Network, which publishes daily content to over 5,000 portals, as well as 1.6+ million social media followers of its own. The newswire has been playing an important role in disseminating developments in the crypto world.

Shehan Chandrasekera, a founder of the Houston Blockchain Alliance (“HBA”), was also on the show. The HBA is hosting a meet-up on Wednesday, February 20, 2019, at the Houston CPA Society on Post Oak Boulevard. Meetups like these form part of HBA’s mission of demystifying blockchain in Houston.

So, if you want to get the lowdown on crypto and blockchain, keep tuning into the Wild West Crypto Show, now on TV in 45 cities across the nation.

February 4, 2019 11:54:17
  • Recent legislative changes in San Diego are likely to help Green Hygienics Holdings expand to the region, despite increased competition over cultivation land
  • Company’s innovative aeroponic growing technology requires less land while still generating higher quality crops
  • Additional federal legislative changes expected to result in an incredibly favorable business climate for hemp producers
  • The recently passed Federal Farm Bill legalizing hemp forecast to contribute to the growth of the hemp market at a CAGR of 18.4 percent from 2018 to 2022

The demand for cannabis-related real estate has increased significantly in San Diego after the recent legalization and approval of three additional industrial properties for planned marijuana production (http://nnw.fm/LkRj9). While this increases the challenge for many marijuana growers, it could give an advantage to companies such as Green Hygienics Holdings Inc. (OTC: GRYN), whose aeroponics growing system requires limited land and resources, as compared to traditional growing techniques. Green Hygienics Holdings is planning on introducing its brands to the San Diego market first, before moving on to the rest of the U.S. and, then, internationally.

The San Diego City Council has increased the number of formally approved industrial spaces for marijuana cultivation to 21. In addition, the city council has approved 19 of an allowed quota of 36 retail locations. The legislative change was…

NetworkNewsBreaks – TransCanna Holdings Inc. (CSE: TCAN) (FSE: TH8) Enters Option Agreement to Acquire 196,000 Square Foot Cannabis Facility

February 4, 2019 10:00:38

TransCanna Holdings Inc. (CSE: TCAN) (FSE: TH8) today announced that, on February 1, 2019, it accepted an assignment of a real estate option agreement from its CEO, Jim Pakulis, to acquire an asset package that includes an existing 196,000 square foot facility on 6.5 acres of land, as well as cannabis processing and packaging equipment. Should the option be exercised, the purchase price of the property is an aggregate of $15 million, payable in cash. Over the past two years, approximately $8 million in tenant improvements have been completed to create a vertically-integrated cannabis facility at the site. The arms-length seller of the property specializes in building USDA-grade commercial HVAC facilities throughout the U.S., and this same seller performed all of the facility’s tenant improvements, the majority of which were to USDA standards.

“With the recent $8 million of tenant improvements performed, this is one of the largest cannabis focused, vertically integrated facilities in California,” TransCanna CEO Jim Pakulis stated in the news release. “The intended use of the facility will be to transfer branded companies that we acquire, or that we create, and bring them inhouse. This means we have complete control over our nursery, grow, manufacturing, extraction and distribution. We believe the consistency in our ecosystem that we can offer, and the scale that we can create, will result in TransCanna owning a portfolio of premium brands that will materially benefit the retailer and their customers.”

420 with CNW – Minnesota Legislators Introduce Marijuana Legalization Bill

February 4, 2019 04:20:20

Three legislators in Minnesota have introduced a bill that is intended to legalize recreational marijuana for adults in the state. Two senators (Scott Jensen and Melisa Franzen) and House Rep. Mike Freiberg are the brains behind this bill that was introduced on Monday this week.

The bill seeks to allow adults over 21 years of age to possess, grow and consume cannabis within the state. The state would also set up mechanisms through which the industry can be regulated in order to ensure that all activities conform to set standards during the cultivation, processing and marketing of marijuana. Special attention would also be devoted to preventing teens from accessing cannabis.

Frieberg released a statement in which he said that the prohibitionist laws of Minnesota were outdated and caused more problems rather than fixing the problem of drug abuse. He added that creating a regulated market would get rid of the criminals currently selling the drug and regulated sales would also bring revenue to the state while reducing the potential harm of marijuana to consumers.

Rep. Frieberg also said that it was time to start having a debate on marijuana in the state in order to come up with an appropriate model that will end cannabis prohibition.

In the bill, the Department of Health would be responsible for regulating cannabis dispensaries in the state. The department would also make sure that cannabis regulators establish a system that oversees the entire cannabis value chain from the time a seed is planted to the time the finished product is sold.

The bill will also allow the state to expunge certain cannabis arrests from the criminal records of those who qualify for such a reprieve. Under the bill, approximately $10 million from the cannabis tax revenue will be spent n the impoverished communities that have been affected the most by the prohibitionist laws. Millions of dollars would also be directed towards mental health programs each year in addition to funding education campaigns on drug use by teens.

The Marijuana Policy Project estimates that Minnesota can earn about $200 million to $300 million from marijuana taxes each year.

Currently, 10 states and Washington D.C. have legalized recreational marijuana while 33 states have legalized medical marijuana. Minnesota therefore will have a large pool from which to draw experiences when finalizing its marijuana law.

However, it may be a while before a final law is passed since the Senate’s Majority Leader (Paul Gazelka) said that the most that can happen during this legislative session is to have an informational hearing.

All the same, cannabis industry players like Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX.V: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPWRF) and Sunniva Inc. (CSE: SNN) (OTCQB: SNNVF) hope that the discussions will be objective and culminate in a decision that is in the best interest of Minnesotans.

420 with CNW – Another Cannabis Lounge Set to Open in Denver

February 1, 2019 16:20:31

Vape and Play, a social club that will allow patrons to consume marijuana in its premises, is due to open on February 18 in Denver. This will be the second lounge in the city where one can consume marijuana.

Such businesses are geared at addressing one of the biggest challenges that has existed since recreational cannabis was legalized in Colorado: where can one consume cannabis after buying it?

These businesses want to give cannabis users a place that is a little more than a smoke-filled room from which to consume their cannabis. In fact, Vape and Play aims to provide a venue that is “better than your living room.”

Megan Lumpkins, the Chief Operating Officer of Vape and Play, says that it was hard to come up with a business model for their establishment since such places don’t usually sell marijuana, yet they can’t just say “we have a seat where you can come and use the cannabis you just bought.”

Vape and Play has decided to adopt the model of an event venue where cannabis consumers will be charged an entry fee for two or so hours during which they can enjoy a comedy show or attend a fitness class while consuming their cannabis.

Such an approach may give their target market a valid reason to visit the venue since clients will be able to socialize as they use cannabis.

Lumpkins added that she hopes that other marijuana lounges or venues will open so that Denver can become a cannabis tourism destination where visitors can have a variety of experiences to enjoy while in the city.

The only other consumption lounge in the city is The Coffee Joint which was opened in March last year. The difference with this lounge is that the owners have a cannabis dispensary right next to it, so clients can buy their marijuana and then head to the consumption lounge.

It hasn’t been an easy ride to securing a license to open Vape and Play. The proprietors have had to jump through numerous hoops for over two years before they finally got approval for the business. This challenge could explain why this type of business hasn’t grown in the area despite the decision of voters in 2016 to permit consumption lounges.

Vape and Play plans to give visitors wristbands of different colors based on how much experience each visitor has with consuming cannabis.

For example, a seasoned user will be given a black wristband after completing a survey at the entrance. A “vape tender” will look at the armband of each guest and tweak the temperature setting of one of the custom vaporizers at the venue in order to allow that visitor to vape cannabis whose strength is equal to his or her experience level (a higher temperature setting gives a higher THC concentration in the vapor, for example).

The innovations brought by Vape and Play are welcome news to the entire cannabis industry, including Sugarmade Inc. (OTCQB: SGMD) and Sproutly Canada Inc. (OTCQB: SRUTF) (CSE: SPR) (FRA: 38G), since such innovations contribute to the growth of cannabis culture.

NetworkNewsBreaks – The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings Ltd. (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) Releases Construction Update, Increases Capacity, Confirms On-Schedule Launch of Growers Circle

February 1, 2019 10:19:02

Cannabis-focused research and development company The Green Organic Dutchman Holdings (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) today released a detailed construction update on its domestic Valleyfield and Hamilton operations that reflects significant progress toward the completion of both facilities. According to the update, as a result of a recently-identified need for design modifications in the construction process, the engineering improvements enable optimized facility throughput that, combined with organic specific modifications, provide an increased domestic productive capacity forecast from 156,000 kg to 202,500 kgs. The updated construction plan requires increased capital expenditures of approximately $30 million for the completion of the structures and an additional three months for start-up in Valleyfield. The added expenditures and improvements for the larger processing facility and operating enhancements to increase capacity will be incrementally phased in and are expected to be funded from operational cashflow. In addition to the construction update, TGOD announced that the Growers Circle launch remains on schedule, with medical patients across the country to receive first shipments of premium, certified organic cannabis this month. “Not only have we addressed the important redesign requirements, we have also made significant improvements to the operating capacity and capital timing of our facilities, resulting in an additional 46,500 kgs of productive capacity,” TGOD CEO Brian Athaide stated in the news release. “This allows us to bring additional product to both Canadian consumers and global markets. We are also excited to supply our first patients in the Growers Circle with premium organic cannabis this month, generating our first domestic revenues.”

420 with CNW – Why Suppositories will be Big in the Medical Marijuana Industry

February 1, 2019 04:20:22

Many people may feel rather squeamish about sticking a cannabis suppository up their backside, but this method of administration is beginning to attract widespread attention as a way to administer medical cannabis. Several reasons can explain their growing popularity.

Better Absorption Rates

The most common ways to take medical cannabis are by eating or smoking the substance. However, these two methods of administration don’t allow enough of the cannabis consumed to be absorbed into the bloodstream.

For example, the acidic environment inside the stomach and the entire gastrointestinal tract destroys most of the therapeutic ingredients in cannabis before those compounds have a chance to enter the bloodstream and do their work.

Smoking also comes with its own risks of damage to the lining of the lungs, among other dangers. Furthermore, not enough cannabis can be absorbed through the lungs since some is exhaled along with the air one breathes.

However, the lining of the rectum provides an excellent medium through which cannabis can be absorbed into the bloodstream. Consequently, a patient will not need to use a large dose in order to get the desired effects.

It’s Ideal for Seriously Ill People

Some patients, such as cancer patients, are in such a bad state that it is nearly impossible for them to smoke or consume cannabis edibles. How can such people get medical cannabis into their bloodstream?

Cannabis suppositories are an excellent option in such situations. Remember, all lists of conditions for which one can access medical cannabis include chronic or debilitating illnesses. No wonder doctors are increasingly recommending that patients use marijuana suppositories.

They Have a Track Record

Suppositories aren’t a new invention. They have been used in conventional medicine for decades. These items are therefore getting a new lease of life by being used in the medical cannabis industry.

Additionally, it is possible to standardize the dosing of cannabis products if patients are going to use suppositories. This is much better than telling someone to smoke “a thick wad of cannabis when the tremors start.”

Such standardization can go a long way in removing the stigma that has sometimes been directed at cannabis as something for reckless people who have nothing to do except getting high.

Less THC Is Absorbed in This Way

Another key advantage of cannabis suppositories is that they are likely to silence the critics who say that patients are using medical cannabis in order to get high.

Research has it that THC (the psychoactive element in cannabis) isn’t as readily absorbed into the bloodstream through the rectum, unlike CBD that is readily absorbed. Thus, there is a lower risk that patients will get addicted to cannabis while taking it anally.

As you can see, cannabis suppositories seem poised to stake their claim in the medical cannabis sector. The cannabis industry, including SinglePoint Inc. (OTCQB: SING) and Redfund Capital Corp. (CSE: LOAN) (OTC: PNNRF) (Frankfurt: O3X4), welcomes all avenues through which patients can get relief from their conditions.

420 with CNW – UC Berkley Launches Cannabis Research Center

January 31, 2019 16:20:27

The University of California at Berkley has announced that it has opened a cannabis research center that will study the effects of cannabis production upon society and the environment. This announcement was made on Tuesday this week (January 29).

UC officials also revealed that the research center will primarily focus on three major areas.

The first is cannabis regulation and policy. Cannabis regulations and policies have been evolving rapidly and they merit research in order to ascertain whether those policies and regulations have made the industry better, whether the policymakers had sufficient information upon which they based when drafting the regulations and policies, etc.

The research center will also study how cannabis production affects the environment. For example, what effects do cannabis plants have on groundwater? Is it better (for the environment) to grow cannabis in indoor facilities or outdoor grows are better? How can the adverse environmental impacts (if any) of cannabis production be mitigated? Such, and other issues will occupy the researchers who will devote their time and resources to looking into the environmental effects of cannabis production.

The third major area of research will be the impact of cannabis production on society. Already, some lawsuits have been filed against cannabis grow facilities in some neighborhoods while some local authorities have enacted ordinances that ban any marijuana-related activities in their jurisdictions. At the same time, many communities are clamoring to have cannabis production facilities in their areas in order to reap the economic benefits that such developments bring. So, the responses to cannabis production span the entire gamut of what anyone can imagine as a potential reaction to this controversial plant. The researchers will look into all these societal effects and provide scientific data to inform the decision-making process.

Ted Grantham and Van Butsic, both faculty members in UC Berkley’s Department of Policy and Management, and Environmental Sciences will head the interdisciplinary team at the research center.

The direction taken by the research center at UC Berkley is unique because so far, other researchers have devoted their resources to studying how cannabis affects people (the positive and negative) at the level of an individual. Grantham and his team want to broaden the lens and look at the bigger picture. This approach is a welcome development for the cannabis industry, including Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) and Phivida Holdings Inc. (CSE: VIDA) (OTCQX: PHVAF), because it will provide deeper insights into the broader aspects of the industry.

In addition, Mary Patton officially joined the Sunniva team as vice president of marketing in December 2018, after several years of consulting with the company, and will be responsible for overseeing the Sunniva brand launch in California later this year. Wilkerson has been active in the cannabis space since 2014, providing operations, distribution, logistics and technology expertise to the industry. Patton is a seasoned business executive and veteran cannabis activist and has worked with Sunniva on a consulting basis since 2015, providing assistance with strategic planning, regulatory compliance, licensing, product development and marketing.

In addition, the company’s Co-Founder, President, Chief Strategy Officer and Director, Leith Pedersen, was featured on Uptick Newswire Stock Day with Everett Jolly. The interview opens with Jolly mentioning that Sunniva operates in the two largest cannabis markets, Canada and California, and asking for an update on the California market with Sunniva’s stock becoming one of the best performers in the last 30 days. “Our focus in 2017 and 2018 was really to build, secure, and license the necessary infrastructure to secure the upcoming launch of the Sunniva house of brands,” Pedersen stated. “We provide safe, pesticide free products for consumers with the ability to produce on a large scale, and that took time. California really is our main focus at this juncture, we have operating assets there currently and it’s the largest cannabis market in the world, but it’s still riddled with noncompliant cannabis products.” Pedersen went on to discuss the company’s key pillars of success, including cultivation at scale, the company’s revenue-generating extraction facility to produce non-smokable products, and distribution that allows Sunniva to secure shelf space for all product lines.
