The Cannabis Potcast

On the 100th episode I look back at lessons learned in creating this podcast 3 and half years ago. Most of all I thank you for listening.  A story on Health Canada unlikely to update edible laws until fall at the earliest, more reductions in the cannabis workforce from Flowr and Aurora, a feature from the okanaganz.com on the direction of cannabis tourism and people in Vernon not liking the smell of weed plus to celebrate 100 episodes - not one but two cultivar corners – 1964 Comatose and Flowr’s BC Spiced Grape.

I talk with people in the Kootenay's  from Sweetgrass Cannabis  a new micro producer on the legal market. On Cultivar Corner I taste one of their first drops - Mint Chocolate Chip - delicious! Wrapped around that is a look at the data leak at the OCS and perhaps there may be too many cannabis stores in Ontario.
