420 with CNW – Canadian Marijuana Consumers Unaware They Can Object to ID Scanning

Canadian law requires cannabis buyers to present a valid ID for verification before one buys recreational or medical cannabis.

420 with CNW – American Cannabis Sales Expected to Double on 4/20

According to that myth, those students never found that marijuana crop, so they doggedly kept up their search. On 4/20, sales of marijuana are expected to, at the very least, double at all retail facilities…

Right now, the plants in the greenhouse will be studied on issues like humidity, fertilizers, temperature, lighting and other growing factors necessary to produce a crop whose attributes are uniform. Once the facility can produce cannabis of the same medical quality,…

Insiders say that the biggest sticking point is the matter of who qualifies to have their cannabis-related criminal record expunged.
