So it looks like people are actually getting in less trouble…a lot of what you are saying isn’t lining up bud.

Write there in the article it states she was eased up on because of her health and age…
“Minard also considered Fong’s age, and high blood pressure diagnoses which her lawyer vouched for, which the judge said helps mitigate the sentence, as does her plea.”
If she was young and healthy she would have got the whole book thrown at her.
I doubt she would of, I can find others that show a reduction in sentencing from your example.
Ok, I personally know people that are doing time for growing annd selling cannabis since legalization and like I said before the reason I got out. People that historically would have been thrown out of court in Canada not even 10 years ago. Are you Canadian? Have you had personal experience with cannabis and it’s laws in Canada?

The big issue with phylos is the dishonest way they presented themselves in the beginning

Large scale grow, much lighter sentence than the example you gave.
Why do you keep trying to move the goal posts when I present you with actual data showing what you say doesn’t line up with reality.
Are we taking into account ratting for the sentencing?
Same jurisdiction?
remind me what the ‘punishment’ for these fuckers was… oh ya… nothing
rules for thee - not for me.
you’re inside the game - or your not…

Thst would come under RICO here in the states…i knew of an apt bldg owner got time for collecting rent on his apt. bldg. A tenant was making meth
I’ve already posted government links direct fro government of Canada website that show that for possession and growing amounts over, a citizen can be put away for a much longer time than previously, prior to legalization. Just that of ten years ago. They in fact do have much stiffer penalties in place and that’s also a fact. . These rules are all harsher now that it’s. It’s really that simple. The laws are in place to be used and they will use them. Canada legalization is a Trick and it is regulated and penalized way more. I’ve already been cited for smoking in public when prior to legalization that would never happen. We have way more laws in place now to criminalize this plant now that it’s legal.
I posted a quote from and article with citations that showed they had those same stuff penalties since the 60s or 70s.
All the counter articles and sentences are also lighter than prior to legalization, so I’m not sure what point is being made with that. Yes, it’s legalized so there is now a legal framework around the industry. Is the effect longer sentences for Marijuana? No, it doesn’t seem to be the case.
Phylos has a stranglehold on the Cali market? Makes sense after talking with their “experts”.

So many weed experts out of California who are seemingly nothing but detrimental to the market. 2023 will break records of customer dissatisfaction. We need more experts. Big weed is just like the government at this point.

so are you a Canadian? or just trying to tell us Canadians how it is and has been?
I find that kind of offensive when people do that.
Legalization in Canada is a farce and yes, the penalties for Cannabis offenses under the current Cannabis Act are MUCH stronger than they ever were before legalization. The only thing on “our” side now is that cops are not being mandated to push the “war on drugs”. They know the Cannabis Act is an incomplete and irresponsibly crafted piece of legislation. They don’t have the time nor resources to run around trying to bust growers with more than 4 plants.
But if you do get busted now, the government has real tools to fuck your life sideways should they choose to.

No, I do not live in our hat.
Oh,someone telling you something about your country is offensive? I’m sorry you feel that way, we hear it all the time so I didn’t think it would be such a big problem. My apologies.
I’m looking at how the law is applied and it seems from what has been posted and what I’ve been able to find, penalties for convictions are far less than what they were prior. This is not me saying our governments are all of a sudden good and looking out for people’s best intrest.

Never be afraid to say what is on your mind even when folks spit in your face.
My hat is off to you sir.
Well said brother!
A tip of the hat to you too, this world need more like you!
This guy knows what he is talking about.

And I’ve told you multiple times that the penalties are now much harsher if they choose to use the new laws that can be implemented since the country went legal. Laws that didn’t exist before….

So in effect the penalties aren’t harsher because they aren’t in actuality.
Starting to think I found a troll tbh
