NetworkNewsBreaks – Global Payout, Inc. (GOHE) and MTrac’s The Key to Cashless® Now Federally Registered U.S. Trademark

March 21, 2019 11:18:55

Global Payout (OTC: GOHE) along with its wholly-owned subsidiary MTrac Tech Corporation today announced that the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office has federally registered its slogan, The Key to Cashless® under Trademark Registration #5705041. With completion and official registration, the company will incorporate the trademark into its growing book of assets. “This slogan represents our philosophical vision for the financial solutions our team is delivering to an industry in need,” MTrac CEO Vanessa Luna said in the news release. “The cannabis industry has, in my opinion, been federally handcuffed by Schedule 1 classification, and all of the state-licensed cannabis businesses, who are doing everything correct from a regulatory compliance perspective to remain in good standing with its state and local governments, and who are creating jobs and generating tax revenue for the betterment of communities, have been effectively cut off from traditional banking services. These organizations have endured many challenges such as high security costs, managing financial expenditures, and all of the risks associated with cash-only or cash-heavy operations.”

Spectrum Global Solutions Inc. (SGSI) Builds and Maintains the Future with Service Growth in Telecommunications Sector

March 21, 2019 09:30:37
  • Telecommunications has emerged as a ubiquitous, brand-favored market segment that connects people around the world
  • Spectrum Global Solutions serves the telecommunications industry by building and maintaining network services on an end-to-end, one-stop-shopping basis
  • The company is preparing to merge with technology innovator WaveTech Global and uplist to the Nasdaq under WaveTech’s brand
  • SGSI continues to see contract growth, most recently with more than $1.6 million in new awards announced on March 7

It seems a bit laughable nowadays to recognize that the history of telecommunications began with the use of smoke signals and drums in Africa, the Americas and parts of Asia (http://nnw.fm/Db2Pd). Far separated from that era, modern smartphones and wireless computer video linkages seem to have practically realized the once-fantastic interplanetary technology of the future envisioned by Star Trek’s creators some 50 years ago, and none of the developments that have occurred over the years would be possible without the infrastructure established and maintained by network service providers such as Spectrum Global Solutions Inc. (OTCQB: SGSI).

SGSI is an end-to-end telecommunications insider, providing services and software solutions across the United States and…

  • Cannabidiol (CBD), a chemical found in cannabis, has seen a huge growth in sales over the past few years.

420 with CNW – Research Suggests You Could Be Storing Cannabis Improperly

March 21, 2019 04:20:32

Ask anyone how they store their cannabis and you are likely to hear that they place it in an airtight plastic container stored away from direct sunlight. While this has been the norm for cannabis storage, new research suggests that such a method may not preserve the ingredients of your valuable stash for long.

The Italian study compared how THC content was preserved if cannabis was stored in four different ways for 100 days.

First, the researchers looked at what would happen to cannabis if it were stored for 100 days in a bright room at room temperature. This method of storage resulted in a 13 percent drop in the THC content of the cannabis.

The researchers also looked into what would happen to the THC content of cannabis that has been stored in a dark room at room temperature. The cannabis lost 11 percent of its THC content.

How do most processors store their cannabis? You guessed right, in a dark room at room temperature. These manufacturers may be slapping themselves in the face as they read this!

Next, the researchers looked at what would happen if a batch of cannabis was stored inside a refrigerator whose temperature was maintained at 4°C. There was a substantial reduction in the drop of THC using this method of storage.

The researchers then upped the ante and kept some marijuana in a freezer for 100 days. The temperature inside the freezer was maintained at -20°C. Tests revealed that there was no noticeable change in the THC content if the cannabis was stored in the freezer.

The researchers concluded that the best way to store cannabis in order to preserve its constituents was by freezing it. Storage in an airtight container in a dark room only works for short-term storage, they added.

The researchers also revealed that the CBD content of cannabis barely changes over time regardless of how you choose to store the marijuana. People who have no interest in THC shouldn’t therefore fret about how they keep their cannabis products.

However, the findings of this study should not be generalized as applicable to all the attributes or components of cannabis. For example, the study didn’t look into how the flavor or scent of cannabis was affected by the four storage methods investigated.

As you wait for research to be done on that, you can conduct your own little experiments to see how your perception of those attributes is affected when you store marijuana in different ways.

Youngevity International, Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) and Cannabis Strategic Ventures, Inc. (OTC: NUGS) welcome the insights that the study has shed on the different storage options for cannabis products.

420 with CNW – Lawmakers in Connecticut Unveil Marijuana Legalization Plan

March 20, 2019 16:20:00

At the end of last week (March 14), lawmakers in Connecticut’s Assembly held a press conference at which they outlined a plan to legalize recreational marijuana in the state.

Rep. Michael D’Agostino, the chair of the General Law Committee, led the proceedings by giving a brief outline of the legalization plan.

He revealed that three major areas would be looked at when pushing the legalization plan forward. These are regulation, monetization and decriminalization. These three areas would be handled by different committees that are mandated to legislate in those areas.

D’Agostino added that the different committees would formulate various bills covering the cannabis legalization areas within their mandate before all those different bills are merged into one comprehensive bill. This will be after the committee bills are modified and agreed upon by all or most of the committee members.

The chair of the House Judiciary Committee (Rep. Steve Stafstrom) was next on the microphone and he talked about the three bills in his committee. One was focused on legalizing cannabis possession by adults 21 or older while also laying out how marijuana misdemeanor crimes would be expunged from the criminal records of residents.

A second bill in this committee looks at issues of impaired driving. One notable provision of this bill would see resources ring-fenced for training law enforcement to be experts at recognizing and screening drivers who may be under the influence.

The third bill for this committee will absolve employers from making any exceptions for employees who use weed. This means that if the bill becomes law, an employer may refuse to hire anyone who tests positive for marijuana, or fire an employee who is under the influence at work.

Rep. Jason Rojas, who sits on the Finance, Revenue and Bonding Committee spoke about the tax structure that Connecticut may adopt once recreational marijuana is permitted. He revealed that they were cautious and would propose a 20 percent tax so that Connecticut’s weed doesn’t cost more than what is available in Massachusetts where adult-use cannabis retails sales are already a reality.

Otherwise, people may buy recreational cannabis out-of-state instead of spending their money on Connecticut’s supply. The details of the tax structure would be made clearer in due course, Rojas added.

What came out strongly during the press briefing was that it is still early days to start talking timelines to the availability of recreational cannabis. A lot of work needs to be done to get the law in place, and this fact is brought home by the memory of what happened last year when legalization by legislative means failed after a bill that had been passed by a slim majority in the Appropriations Committee was stalled by the House Speaker until the end of the legislative session.

Hope is high this time round since Democrats control both chambers. Choom Holdings Inc. (CSE: CHOO) (OTCQB: CHOOF) and Earth Science Tech, Inc. (OTCQB: ETST) wish the cannabis advocates good luck as they try to get the people of Connecticut to enjoy what the residents of 10 other U.S. states are already enjoying.

CBD Beverages – Possible Next Big Disruptor in the Drinks Industry

March 20, 2019 09:00:36

CannabisNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Drinks infused with cannabis-derived cannabidiol (CBD) are in a prime position to bring disruption to the beverage sector.

  • The growing consumer interest in hemp-derived CBD as a health supplement along with the recent passing of the Farm Bill has spawned a growing interest in CBD-infused drinks.
  • The ever-increasing global trend to legalizing cannabis is also creating demand for “harder” beverages derived from marijuana
  • Big alcohol companies have taken a particular interest in investing in cannabis producers.
  • The relationship is also working in an inverse direction, with CBD producers recruiting experienced beverage executives to help launch new products.

Corporate interest in building a cannabis-infused beverage profile demonstrates the level of potential growth for such an industry, with key developments being made across multiple channels. To address the needs of the wellness-oriented consumer, Phivida Holdings Inc. (CSE: VIDA) (OTCQX: PHVAF) (PHVAF Profile) has created a line of active hemp extract (CBD)-infused drinks that are just starting to hit store shelves and is expected to be distributed to a thousand retail outlets in Q2. In the adult beverage sector, Constellation Brands Inc. (NYSE: STZ) has made a $4 billion investment in Canopy Growth Corp. (NYSE: CGC) (TSX: WEED), fueling research into cannabis drinks which suggests a proactive approach to addressing the potential sales impact in markets where consumer use of marijuana is legal. The Canadian business unit of Molson Coors Brewing Company (NYSE: TAP) has also made a deal with a cannabis producer to create beverages for that market. In the health supplements sector, Charlotte’s Web Holdings Inc. (OTCQX: CWBHF) (CSE: CWEB), which markets hemp-derived CBD oil, has recruited a former Coca-Cola executive to bring…

420 with CNW – Illinois Legislators Move to Ease Banking for Cannabis Businesses

March 20, 2019 04:20:11

As Illinois gears up to legalize recreational weed, a couple of bills have been tabled to protect state-chartered banks that decide to accept cannabis businesses as clients.

Under federal law, any money from cannabis businesses is regarded as drug money and banks that accept such money may be prosecuted by the federal authorities.

Consequently, most banks have been reluctant to do business with marijuana companies even if the allure of the huge sums of money that can be made from the cannabis industry is strong.

The past years have seen medical cannabis companies struggling to find a bank that is willing to take them on, and this is the situation that the newly introduced bills seek to fix.

Last year, medical cannabis sales generated approximately 136.5 million, and that figure is likely to grow to $224 million by 2022 once recreational sales begin. This is a huge amount of money to be lying around in sacks or safes within cannabis business premises.

More practical problems like how to pay employees and clients get worse once businesses don’t have access to banking services. For example, Ascend Illinois, one of the leading medical cannabis firms in the state, narrates how they had to take several days to drive cash to different vendors and employees around the state when the bank they were using withdrew its services.

Such a scenario creates a huge attraction to criminals who would want to lay their hands on such a huge amount of cash.

It is also hard for state authorities to track whether the cannabis companies are meeting their tax obligations if there is no paper trail to follow in order to verify the volume of sales each month.

The passing of state laws to shield local banks from federal prosecution can help to remove some of the concerns that the banks may have.

While it is true that no bank or credit union has so far been targeted by the feds for doing business with cannabis companies, a state law would protect the banks in the event that a change in policy at the federal level exposes the banks to risks.

For example, President Obama’s administration had passed a policy not to prosecute banks that do business with cannabis firms in states that legalized marijuana. However, President Trump’s administration rescinded that policy, effectively making it possible for federal law enforcement agencies to go after banks that accept marijuana businesses.

Such fluctuations in federal policy are what the bills introduced by state Sen. Tol Hutchinson and state Rep. Jehan Gordon-Booth want to shield local banks against.

The sponsors of those two bills believe that just as the states have taken the lead in seeing marijuana legalized, they too must play a leading role in ensuring that banking laws are reformed to accommodate those cannabis businesses. The Flowr Corporation (TSX.V: FLWR) (OTC: FLWPF) and The Green Organic Dutchman (TSX: TGOD) (OTCQX: TGODF) wish that such laws were passed much earlier so that legitimate cannabis businesses stop being treated like second-class entities.

420 with CNW – Bipartisan Bill Seeks to Protect Federal Workers Who Use Marijuana

March 19, 2019 16:20:32

A bipartisan bill introduced in Congress last week (March 12) seeks to shield federal employees from being fired once they test positive for marijuana.

The bill, introduced by Reps. Don Young (R-AK) and Charlie Crist (D-FL), is intended to clarify that federal workers who consume cannabis in states where it is legal cannot be held liable under federal law for testing positive for the substance.

Currently, federal employees can be summarily fired or denied a job if they test positive for THC. This blanket action happens regardless of state law.

Crist explains that the existing policy and law disproportionately impacts veterans because many of them have taken to medical marijuana in order to deal with various issues, such as PTSD and chronic pain. For such veterans, medical cannabis provides an alternative to harmful and addictive opioids.

Crist also notes that one third of the federal workforce is made up of veterans, and the law is unfair to this section of federal employees because they didn’t ask to suffer from the conditions that led them to use medical marijuana.

The bill wants to address the legal conflict that often puts veterans and other employees (or prospective employees) in a difficult position in which they have to choose between using medical cannabis and retaining their employment. No one should be forced to make that choice if medical cannabis is legal in the state where the person lives or works.

However, the bill doesn’t try to stop employers from conducting drugs tests and acting on the results if a person is suspected to have been intoxicated while on the job. Federal employees who require top secret clearance are also exempted from the protections outlined in this bill.

The previous version of this bill didn’t provide protections to individuals who used cannabis in conformity with the policies of Indian tribes. This present version includes such people.

The present bill also used the term “personnel action” when describing the protections offered. The inclusion of the term “personnel action” was intended to clarify that the bill should not be interpreted to mean that federal employees were protected from criminal action resulting from their use of marijuana.

It is hoped that this bill will be enacted so that talented individuals aren’t denied federal employment opportunities. Sugarmade, Inc. (OTCQB: SGMD) and Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX.V: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) wish the sponsors of the bill success since their intention of protecting veterans and other federal employees is a good cause.

NetworkNewsAudio – Genprex Inc. (NASDAQ: GNPX) Interview

March 19, 2019 14:21:59

About Genprex, Inc.

Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) is a clinical stage gene therapy company developing potentially life-changing technologies for cancer patients, based upon a unique proprietary technology platform, including Genprex’s initial product candidate, Oncoprex(TM) immunogene therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Genprex’s platform technologies are designed to administer cancer fighting genes by encapsulating them into nanoscale hollow spheres called nanovesicles, which are then administered intravenously and taken up by tumor cells where they express proteins that are missing or found in low quantities.

420 with CNW – Complaints about the Minnesota Medical Cannabis Task Force Increase

March 19, 2019 04:20:06

When Minnesota legalized medical cannabis in 2014, a task force was established to evaluate the medical cannabis program and report back to the state. However, numerous complaints about the operation and effectiveness of this task force have arisen.

Representatives of patients, law enforcement agencies, the medical community, lawmakers and other stakeholders make up this task force. The task force is mandated to scrutinize patient access to the medical marijuana program, the affordability of the products and any other issue connected to medical cannabis.

However, the task force appears to have been doomed right from its very inception. For example, the law establishing this entity wasn’t very clear on the exact duties of the task force.

Consequently, some of its members thought that the task force would assess the conditions that people wanted to be added to the list of qualifying conditions and then make recommendations on the same while other members didn’t think the task force had that authority.

Additionally, the composition of the task force appears not to be conducive for the group to do its work. This is because the task force has members who have divergent views about the appropriateness of having a medical cannabis program in the state.

Such divergent views of the proponents and opponents of the medical marijuana program create a lot of tension during meetings, so it is hard for the members to agree on anything.

As if the issues above weren’t bad enough, the task force rarely meets. For example, the last meeting they held was in 2017. It is nearly two years since they held a meeting!

Even the meetings that have been convened haven’t been well attended. Denis Flaherty, the ED of the Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association, revealed as much when he decided to resign his membership on the task force.

He said that being on the task force was “a waste of my time” due to the poor attendance and the lack of impact that the meetings were having.

Because of the lack of impact by the task force, medical marijuana remains very expensive (and many patients have resorted to the black market).

These complaints about the task force haven’t gone unnoticed by the powers that be in the state. For example, Rep. Heather Edelson has drafted a bill to clarify how often the task force should meet, and the specific issues they should consider during that annual meeting.

Gov. Tim Walz also acknowledged that there were frustrations with the task force. He revealed that he was considering recreating the group into a new one that will consider the legalization of recreational marijuana in addition to assessing the medical cannabis program.

It seems there is all round consensus that something needs to be done to make the task force more useful. Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) and Redfund Capital Corp. (CSE: LOAN) (OTC: PNNRF) (Frankfurt: O3X4) call on all the concerned authorities to revisit the task force so that medical marijuana patients aren’t exposed to preventable inconveniences.

420 with CNW – Two New Jersey Committees Voted on Marijuana Legalization Today

March 18, 2019 16:20:52

Two committees in the New Jersey Senate and Assembly voted on a bill to legalize recreational marijuana today (March 18). If the bill passed in both committees, then the entire House could vote on the matter as soon as March 25.

Stephen Sweeney, the Senate President, revealed that the members had received copies of the bill on Thursday last week and that the Democrats in the House have started talking to Republicans in order to get some of them to vote for the bill.

The support of some Republicans was crucial, because a number of prominent Democrats in the House were likely to vote against the bill. In order to pass, at least 21 Senators needed to vote for the bill.

The current bill is a modified form of the original version. The tax system suggested in the original version was changed so that marijuana could be taxed by weight instead of imposing an excise tax on every sale made.

The modified bill also has a provision to expunge the criminal record of individuals who were arrested or convicted for marijuana distribution. This didn’t exist in the previous version of the marijuana legalization bill.

It is this modified bill that the Senate Judiciary committee considered and voted on at 2:00 p.m. today, while the Appropriations Committee of the Assembly sat at noon today.

Marijuana proponents say they aren’t inventing marijuana. Rather, it is present in the different communities, and the social injustices committed during the so-called war on drugs also exist.

Passing the legalization bill would regulate the cannabis industry and get it out of the hands of criminal gangs. The state would earn taxes from the industry and thousands of jobs would be created. All this isn’t bad, the advocates say.

Another bill that was voted on today aims at increasing the quantity of medical cannabis that a patient can buy in the state. The bill also set in motion steps to end the imposition of excise tax on medical cannabis by 2024, in addition to legalizing marijuana edibles.

A third bill aims at making it easier for New Jersey to expunge marijuana charges from the criminal records of those who qualify under the law. For example, the mandatory time that must elapse before the charges are expunged will be reduced under this law.

This week may potentially be a turning point as far as marijuana is concerned in New Jersey. SinglePoint, Inc. (OTCQB: SING) and Sproutly Canada, Inc. (OTCQB: SRUTF) (CSE: SPR) (FRA: 38G) called for an objective assessment of the bills before voting took place. Such a sober approach will ensure that the best decisions are made on behalf of the people of New Jersey.

420 with CNW – First Specialist Medical Marijuana Clinic Opens in the UK

March 18, 2019 04:20:04

Last Saturday (March 9) saw history being made in the UK as the first specialist medical cannabis clinic opened in Manchester. The clinic is called The Beeches Consulting Center.

The opening of this clinic has been widely welcomed by patients and clinicians in the UK. This cannabis clinic is owned by European Cannabis Holdings (ECH), a group of companies that plans to open many more such clinics across the UK.

The clinic will be headed by two respected professionals in the medical field. These are an independent pain specialist, Dr. David McDowell, and the second is a consultant neurologist, Professor Mike Barnes.

Dr. McDowell also holds the distinction of being the first specialist to issue a medical cannabis prescription in the UK when the British government enacted a law that made it possible for patients to access medical cannabis starting from December 1. 2018.

Forzana Nazir is one of the first patients that Dr. McDowell issued a medical cannabis prescription to. She is eternally grateful for this because she has been able to transition from taking 13 different medications for her genetic disorder to just three prescription medications ever since she started taking medical marijuana.

Nazir suffers from Ehlers Danlos Syndrome that made her nearly bedridden on a permanent basis due to the severe pain, vomiting and nausea. She credits medical marijuana for significantly improving her quality of life and also for weaning her off many prescription opioids.

The opportunities offered by this new clinic have huge significance given the difficulties that patients have been experiencing if they want to access medical cannabis through the NHS (National Health Service).

Patients are required to establish exceptional clinical circumstances, exhaust all the current treatment options available in the UK, get approval from an NHS Trust Medical Director and then get a medical specialist who is willing to accept liability for their medical cannabis treatment. Only then can a patient receive medical marijuana from the NHS. Any wonder that only four patients have so far accessed the NHS medical marijuana?

The clinic in Manchester, and others that will be opened, will offer an alternative to the complicated bureaucracy associated with getting medical marijuana through the NHS. For now, the clinic will treat chronic pain (due to arthritis, spasticity, fibromyalgia, etc.), psychiatric conditions (anxiety, depression, PTSD, etc.) and neurological conditions, such as Parkinson’s disease, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis and epilepsy.

Net Element, Inc. (NASDAQ: NETE) and Phivida Holdings Inc. (CSE: VIDA) (OTCQX: PHVAF) congratulate ECH upon that major milestone of opening the first specialized medical marijuana clinic in the UK. That is a major investment which should open the eyes of other businesses to the massive opportunities that exist in the cannabis industry.

420 with CNW – British Lawyers Head to Brussels Over CBD Ban

March 15, 2019 16:20:50

Last month, we reported that there was a run on CBD drinks and other CBD products in the UK after the EU declared that CBD and other cannabis or hemp extracts were novel foods that could only be allowed on the market after receiving regulatory approval. Cannabis industry players in the UK aren’t taking that ban lying down. Their association has instructed a team of lawyers to head to Brussels in order to try and overturn that ruling.

While the EU law, (EU) 2015/2283, isn’t binding on the member states, many countries use the guidance provided by the EU to draft their own domestic laws and regulations. Actually, many EU countries promptly act on those recommendations then ask questions later.

For example, Austria immediately banned CBD and all food products containing it as soon as the EU made its ruling on the products.

Cannabinoids were categorized as novel foods by the EU since industry players “failed to prove” that those products had a history of being consumed in the EU prior to 1997 when the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) was established.

Mackrell Turner Garrett, a London-based law firm, together with a leading trading standards and food attorney in the UK, have been sent to Brussels to meet EFSA officials in order to argue the case of the CBD industry in the UK.

The lawyers are acting on behalf of the Cannabis Trade Association UK and they will try to convince EFSA at the EU headquarters that since hempseed and hempseed extracts have already been approved, then they don’t belong in the category of the novel foods that should be banned.

This will be a tough fight to complete because the EU has a history of being cautious regarding any major global developments with origins in North America. This pushback has particularly been strong ever since the financial meltdown of 2008.

But the team from London is unfazed and wants to argue the case of its members. CBD has grown so rapidly that in just three years, the CTA (Cannabis Trade Association) has grown to more than 700 members.

Additionally, the CBD industry contributes approximately $130 million to the British economy each year. It remains to be seen whether the arguments presented by the lawyers will change the minds of the regulators in Brussels. Medical Cannabis Payment Solutions (OTC: REFG), MustGrow Biologics Corp. and other people who see investment opportunities hope that Brussels changes its stand so that the growth of the industry isn’t torpedoed at this point.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Marijuana Company of America Inc. (MCOA) Grabs Stronger Position in U.S. Hemp-Based Product Market with Patented hempSMART Brain

March 15, 2019 14:10:12

Innovative hemp and cannabis corporation Marijuana Company of America (OTCQB: MCOA) recently received a U.S. patent for its hempSMART Brain that places it in a decidedly stronger position in the U.S. hemp-based product market, forecast to reach nearly $2 billion in three years. A recent article discussing the company’s flagship CBD product reads, “MCOA’s hempSMART Brain is a unique product in that it utilizes a synergistic blend of natural neuroprotective and neuro-regenerative compounds, including CBD, in clinically researched and verified therapeutic amounts. Clinical studies indicate that CBD facilitates brain recovery by aiding in normal cell production. The human brain is ‘fitted’ with natural specialized receptors for CBD, part of the endocannabinoid system that maintains homeostasis, or a stable internal environment in the body, as the external environment changes. Spurred by changes in the legislative environment, research into the use of cannabinoids to supplement neurologic and neurodegenerative concerns has been increasing, with encouraging results.”

Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) Increases Investor Liquidity Options with DTC Eligibility

March 15, 2019 10:56:10
  • PLUS recently announced DTC Eligibility for the U.S. Market
  • Company’s recent IPO raised C$20 million
  • Company plans to use proceeds to expand its operations in California

Plus Products Inc. (CSE: PLUS) (OTCQB: PLPRF) has just made it easier for investors to trade its securities. The company recently announced that its shares are now Depository Trust Company (DTC) eligible (http://nnw.fm/gJu6q). DTC eligibility will allow Plus Products shares to be deposited into a DTC account, from which they can be transferred between brokers and transfer agents. Having an intermediary like DTC handling transfers ensures a high level of integrity and accuracy, since DTC acts as both custodian and clearing house. In addition, eligibility provides access to other DTC services, such as its FAST system and DWAC transactions. By making trading and transfers easier, DTC eligibility increases market liquidity, fulfilling an essential function of securities markets: access to and exit from investments. DTC, with over $35 trillion worth of securities on deposit, is the largest securities depository in the world.

This will likely be reassuring news for the many investors who took part in Plus Products’ recent public share offering. Late last year, the company successfully completed an initial public offering (IPO) of 6,153,847 subordinate voting shares at a price of…

420 with CNW – Workers’ Compensation Being Modified to Incorporate Medical Cannabis in Canada

March 15, 2019 04:20:04

You would expect that with more than 17 years of existence in Canada, medical cannabis should have already led to policy changes in various aspects of life in the country. However, if the claims of injured workers are anything to go by, workers’ compensation guidelines have been slow in changing to accommodate this form of treatment. Now matters are beginning to shift as the discussion below shows.

More Workers Winning in Tribunals

Mellissa Ellsworth is just one of 10 patients who have won hearings in Nova Scotia’s workers’ comp tribunal set up to assess whether the Workers’ Compensation Board should cover the cost of medical marijuana. It took her five years to get this approval.

Alberta’s board has so far also accepted to cover the medical marijuana costs of 10 workers who were injured on the job. New Brunswick shines in this regard because it has so far approved 71 patients’ applications for medical cannabis costs coverage under workers’ comp policies.

It is saddening that patients have to endure years of pain as their applications slowly make their way through the red tape of the Workers’ Compensation Boards in the different provinces and territories. For example, the neurological pain experienced by Melissa Ellsworth led her to take a total of 26 pills on a daily basis just to function as a normal human. She now takes only cannabis and enjoys a better quality of life.

The good news amidst all this is that for each patient who gets approval, more are encouraged to table their requests before the different boards. Eventually, medical cannabis will become a normal form of treatment and no patient will have to go through what the pioneers like Melissa Ellsworth had to endure to get approval.

Doctors’ Prescriptions Rarely Considered

You would think that the different Workers’ Compensation Boards would attach some weight to the recommendations provided by the primary healthcare providers of the patients who apply for coverage.

However, only Quebec recognizes and acts upon those recommendations. Other boards convene their own medical team sittings to assess the eligibility of a patient for medical cannabis. Why should this happen when Health Canada screens patients before giving them a medical cannabis card?

Caps on Daily Cannabis Consumption

Nearly all provinces and territories that are even willing to consider paying for medical cannabis for injured workers impose a three gram cap on how much medical cannabis a patient can claim coverage for each day.

While there may be valid reasons for this cap, it would be reasonable for these boards to acknowledge that different patients have different needs, so mechanisms should be available for those who need more to be covered without major hassles. Even Health Canada allows patients to grow hundreds of cannabis plants if they need a lot on a daily basis for their treatment. But, workers’ comp boards still insist on three grams a day!

But, There’s Progress…

Amidst this huge cloud hovering over injured workers in Canada, winds of change are slowly picking up. Last year, New Brunswick set the stage by passing medical cannabis guidelines. Prince Edward Island followed suit, and now Nova Scotia is drafting its own set of guidelines.

While all this is happening in Canada, one wonders what the situation is here in the U.S. With most marijuana businesses still struggling to access banking services, it is hard to picture what patients may be going through if they wish to have their medical cannabis costs covered by workers’ comp insurance. Lexaria Bioscience Corp. (CSE: LXX) (OTCQX: LXRP) and Marijuana Company of America (OTCQB: MCOA) decry the slow rate at which workers’ compensation is evolving to accommodate medical cannabis. This isn’t only denying patients a viable treatment option, but it is also limiting the investment opportunities that would boost the economy.

420 with CNW – Demand Soars for Missouri Medical Cannabis Licenses

March 14, 2019 16:20:05

The cannabis bullet train doesn’t seem to be showing any signs of slowing down in Missouri ever since voters overwhelmingly passed a ballot measure in the recent midterms to legalize medical marijuana in the state. Now more than 300 businesses are due to be licensed to participate in the medical cannabis industry once it is commercialized.

This announcement was made by Lyndall Fraker, the Missouri Medical Marijuana Program Director, while speaking at a medical marijuana conference in St. Louis on Monday (March 11). He added that if those 300 licenses weren’t enough, then the state wouldn’t hesitate to grant more to the businesses that wish to serve Missouri patients in different capacities.

Already, more than 450 applications have been received from entities that would like to cultivate, manufacture, dispense or test medical marijuana and its products in the state. It is from this pool that the state will select the first 300 businesses to be licensed.

For now, the regulator has set the minimum number of players that will operate in the different segments of the medical marijuana industry. These include at least 192 dispensaries, two marijuana testing facilities, 85 manufacturing facilities and 60 marijuana cultivation facilities.

When added up, those figures exceed the 300 licenses that will be awarded initially, so you can see that the state already has plans for an extensive and robust medical cannabis industry.

You may be wondering, won’t 300 businesses be too many for an industry that is just being set up? This concern may be legitimate, but if anything is to be learnt from the Canadian recreational cannabis industry, it is risky to allow only a few players in the industry.

The cannabis shortages in Canada can largely be explained by the country’s failure to license enough businesses to participate in the different aspects of the cannabis value chain. The resulting mess will possibly take years to fix. Missouri may therefore be onto something when they start off with hundreds of licensed businesses.

Besides, not all of those 300 businesses will start operations at the same time. And when they do start, not all of them will be successful. Others will close shop while more will merge with other businesses.

It is therefore a good thing that the state intends to give all those businesses a shot and then their fate will be squarely in their hands once they get hold of a license. Green Growth Brands Inc. (CSE: GGB) (OTCQB: GGBXF), Green Hygienics Holdings Inc. (OTCQB: GRYN) and all who wish to invest in the medical cannabis industry welcome the steps being taken by the Missouri Medical Marijuana Program to do things right from the get-go.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Black Iron Inc. (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) Makes Progress to Secure Key Land for Shymanivske Project

March 14, 2019 11:32:12

Canadian iron ore exploration and development company Black Iron (TSX: BKI) (OTC: BKIRF) (GR: BIN) this morning announced that Ukraine’s Ministry of Defence (“MOD”) has developed a plan to transfer the parcel of land originally sought by Black Iron for its Shymanivske iron ore project as a location of the processing plant, tailings and waste rock as outlined in the company’s re-scoped Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”). The parcel of land Ukraine’s MOD proposed to Black Iron in September 2018 was deemed unsuitable from a social and environmental standpoint. However, the newly proposed parcel, owned by Ukraine’s central government and currently used by Ukraine’s MOD for training purposes, is ideal. Its close proximity to the Shymanivske ore body makes it a highly economic choice to minimize incurred costs for hauling ore and waste, and it is located a distance away from any communities and surrounded by operating iron ore mines owned by ArcelorMittal and Metinvest.

About Genprex, Inc.

Genprex, Inc. is a clinical stage gene therapy company developing potentially life-changing technologies for cancer patients, based upon a unique proprietary technology platform, including Genprex’s initial product candidate, Oncoprex(TM) immunogene therapy for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Genprex’s platform technologies are designed to administer cancer fighting genes by encapsulating them into nanoscale hollow spheres called nanovesicles, which are then administered intravenously and taken up by tumor cells where they express proteins that are missing or found in low quantities. Oncoprex has a multimodal mechanism of action whereby it interrupts cell signaling pathways that cause replication and proliferation of cancer cells, re-establishes pathways for apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells, and modulates the immune response against cancer cells. Oncoprex has also been shown to block mechanisms that create drug resistance. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.Genprex.com.

NetworkNewsBreaks – Zenergy Brands Inc. (ZNGY) Publishes Year Long Case Study from First Zero Cost Customer

March 14, 2019 10:10:04

Next-generation energy utility company Zenergy Brands (OTC: ZNGY) this morning announced release of a year long Zero Cost Customer Case Study of a real-estate investor with holdings in convenient stores, gas stations, laundromats and restaurants. The study is based on data gathered from the very first Zero Cost Program agreement, entered into and installed during the fourth quarter of 2017, and encompasses data analysis for all of 2018. Zenergy has, for the sake of simplicity, narrowed the published results to two locations with a comparison of electricity usage between the benchmark time period, the actual usage during 2018 and the forecasted usage per the Zero Cost agreement shown daily and by calendar month. “Perhaps the most impressive aspect of our Case Study results is the improvement in load factor during peak months,” Zenergy CEO Alex Rodriguez said in the news release. “For electricity markets like ERCOT, wherein transmission and distribution rates are structured similarly, this presents a great value proposition for the local distribution utility and the customer alike above and beyond the mere reduction of kilowatt-hours.”
