Conservative senators are threatening to drag their heels to delay legalization due to disagreements over how the revenue will be shared. i will not be surprised if trudeau will intentionally let the conservatives kill the bill as another election tactic, just like his promise to legalize was in the first place. the fact it is still illegal, with people still going to jail and having lives and families ruined, 2 years after coming to power is inexcusable.

Dildeau says legalization will not be July 1st, but will be sometime next summer (yeah right bud)

Amazing! Let people rot in jail and force small businesses to lose hard earned money while politicians argue over who gets what money that isn’t even real yet. Fighting and arguing over their own hallucinations. Our leaders, peers, and in their mind our betters.

lol yes on the radio they were saying all the cannabis stocks are down today because of the news, and they have a combined ‘market value’ of $10 billion dollars and 0 profit between them LOL, the valuation is completely based on future profit and i think they are grossly overestimating their future profits.

i’m going to stand in front of the stores handing out flyers outlining the medical application process and infographics explaining the actual cost of production, pesticides and class action lawsuits. going to print out and tape them all over the city too, stickers on bus benches etc

1st draft of Massachusetts regs released. The coffeehouse regs are silly and need serious revision. Also the regs on transporation and farming treat it like plutonium. Otherwise a lot of good stuff. Low license fees.

maybe it’s not so bad for coffeehouses…according to this article there are two tiers of on-site consumption, maybe retail outlets will be able to sell normally

Even though these black market farmers wreak havoc on the environment, this drug warrior is a little overzealous.
Until prices/taxes decline on legal weed, this type of growing will never stop.

edit: yup it said this at top of screen “We’re glad you’re enjoying The Washington Post. You’re almost out of free articles for this month. Already a subscriber? Sign in” i haven’t read any WP articles though so don’t judge me, i’m using a popular VPN

great idea, get the 80-year-olds in prison at the cost of $50,000 per year. The middle part of this country is frightening.

well, at least the taxpayers can take comfort in knowing they probably won’t live more than a couple years

they better not even get jail time, they should get their weed back too, and continue on their merry way of delivering presents. true modern day mr and mrs claus!

This device can determine if drivers are

Hmmm?
