The Cannabis Potcast

A couple stories on the impact of legalized cannabis on the criminal world, a look at another cannabinoid,  CBC or cannabichromene, we revisit the BC Cannabis Alliance page and encourage you to sign the petition to remove the 15% proprietary fee paid for direct delivery, a cannabis store fined for selling too cheap, and a look at Canadian imports to Australia’s medical cannabis market.  On Cultivar Corner, brought to you by Up in Smoke, we go back to Salt Spring Magic and their Pine Tar.

I talk with Jamie Miller-Haywood about her conversation with some candidates running in our BC provincial election – turns out none of them had any idea there were problems in the cannabis space!
