CBDNewsBreaks – No Borders Inc. (NBDR) Launches CBD LabChain Blockchain Platform

No Borders (OTC: NBDR) has developed a revolutionary platform — CBD LabChain — designed to securely and immutably record cannabinoid lab-test data on its new blockchain-based certification platform. CBD LabChain was launched at Blockchain Expo 2019 in November. An article discussing the company reads, “The CBD LabChain platform was built to respond to two crucial consumer concerns: that consumption of a CBD product produces a positive result in an employment drug test and the uncertainty that CBD products contain their stated amount of the cannabinoid. The CBD LabChain platform was developed after extensive research and customer trials as teams from No Borders Naturals traveled coast to coast, sharing the company’s premium line of cannabinoid wellness products with more than 25,000 consumers and then assessing the results. . . . The CBD LabChain platform records and stores tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD) and other lab-test data variants and makes those results easily accessible via QR code and batch number linkage. Additionally, products that use CBD LabChain are offered a ‘Results Guaranteed with Blockchain’ icon that can be directly integrated into individual product labels.”

420 with CNW – Chicago Mayor Wants Marijuana Consumption Allowed in Some Public Places

On Wednesday, Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot introduced a proposed ordinance that would allow licensing of marijuana consumption sites that are safe and legal. This is an effort by the mayor’s office to expand the economic opportunities presented by the ever-growing marijuana industry across the city of Chicago by bringing in more entrepreneurs.

Illinois lawmakers approved the bill legalizing recreational marijuana which was later signed into law by the Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker. Adult-use marijuana will be legal in Chicago as from January 1.

In a public statement, Lightfoot said that the city of Chicago is preparing for legalization ahead of the launch date by working together with the state to make sure that legalization will be implemented in a safe, responsible way and that it offers optimal opportunities for the residents of Chicago as well as businesses. The legalization of adult-use marijuana will provide a chance for more entrepreneurs to participate in the marijuana industry including those who have been affected by the war against drugs. The bill will also present the people of Chicago with safe marijuana consumption sites.

According to the proposal introduced by the Mayor, businesses operating specialty cigar outlets, such as cigar shops or hookah lounges, would be eligible to apply for marijuana consumption site permits. The consumption sites licenses allowing people to use marijuana on the premises would be issued by the Department of Business Affairs and Consumer Protection (BACP). The consumption permits would be granted to businesses deriving at least 80 percent of their proceeds from tobacco-based products.

The BACP Commissioner Rosa Escareno said that entrepreneurs looking to venture in the new business of adult-use marijuana consumption sites have an opportunity to participate through the Chicago consumption licensing program which has a robust regulatory system. Escareno further said that they are excited to be taking the first step in developing regulations that provide entrepreneurs with more economic opportunities while ensuring that the public has safe places where they can use cannabis responsibly.

The specialty tobacco businesses must fulfill several requirements before they can be issued with permits. For example, they must be in a standalone structure that is well ventilated. The companies must also establish a safety plan that is approved by the city, and also educate their staff on safe marijuana consumption. The business owners must also note that businesses located in areas that are excluded from conducting marijuana business, which covers the greatest section of the downtown area and Magnificent Mile, would not be granted licenses.

The businesses authorized for onsite marijuana consumption are not allowed to serve alcohol, and the customers are also not allowed to bring their own. The companies are to be located at a minimum distance of 500 feet from schools and other outlets licensed for marijuana consumption.

The proposed ordinance would make sure that small businesses benefit from the legal marijuana industry, said the executive director of Chicago NORML, Edie Moore.

In the coming year, Lightfoot’s administration is expected to develop a new proposal that would issue onsite consumption licenses to licensed marijuana dispensaries.

Industry watchers believe that it is this type of progressive policy making that many marijuana companies, such as VIVO Cannabis Inc. (TSX.V: VIVO) (OTCQX: VVCIF) and MCTC Holdings Inc. (OTC: MCTC), would like to see because it is strange tosee that people can buy weed in many jurisdictions but they aren’t allowed to consume it anywhere else apart from within the privacy of their homes.

420 with CNW – Michigan Retailers Sell Recreational Weed Worth $3M in First Two Weeks

It is the second week of marijuana sales in Michigan, and although the lines are not long, and the sales have reduced, the adult-use marijuana business remains brisk.

Reports from the Marijuana Regulatory Agency in Michigan show that the few numbers of retail marijuana outlets selling recreational marijuana have been able to collect a total of $3.1 million in sales so far.

The businesses located in Ann Arbor were able to collect $1.6 million in sales during the first week of recreational marijuana sales, which took place between December 1-8. During the second week of recreational cannabis sales, which was between Dec. 9 and 15, the shoppers spent approximately $1.4 in weed purchases.

Within the two weeks of sales, the state of Michigan collected a total of $515,051 in taxes, out of which sales tax is 6% while 10% is an excise tax.

According to the appropriation budget, the first $20 million generated in tax within the first two years of recreational marijuana sales is to be used in medical marijuana research. The rest of the funds are to be assigned as follows,

  • 15% to the municipalities, townships, or villages,
  • 15% is to be allotted to counties that have permitted the establishment of recreational weed businesses,
  • 35% to public schools, and
  • 35% to roads and infrastructure.

Out of 1,773 cities, townships and villages in Michigan, 1,400 of them have prohibited any recreational marijuana business in their jurisdictions.

The budget officials in Michigan are estimating that by late 2021 adult-use marijuana may become a $1.5 billion per year industry.

The state of Michigan had issued 16 licenses as of December 17, which is four more than what the Andrew Brisbo committee had projected by the new year. Brisbo is the Marijuana Regulatory Agency Director. However, most of the licensed businesses have not started operating due to delays in acquiring stock required to fill their shelves.

The only business allowed to obtain recreational marijuana businesses licenses till Dec 6, 2021, are those already operating businesses licensed under medical marijuana licensing laws.

The state allowed medical marijuana dispensaries to transfer half of the medical marijuana inventory which is older than 30 days to the recreational market.

Although some were pleased by the MRA move, some have expressed their concerns over the possible shortage of medical marijuana due to the high demand from recreational consumers.

During WKAR’s off the record, the Executive Director of Michigan Cannabis Industry Association Robin Schneider said that the state of Michigan is already experiencing a shortage of medical marijuana and the early launch of recreational sales could exacerbate the situation. He further said that there is a probability of sending patients to the black market due to lack of legal marijuana.

Speaking to MLive.com, several businesses said that they are stocking up their business before opening their doors to avoid running out of stock.

Speaking to MLive.com, the owner of Herbology Cannabis Co. in Wayne County’s River Rouge, Tarek Jawad said that he is uncertain when he will open his doors because the recreational marijuana is not enough to stock the stores. He added that he plans on placing large orders for medical marijuana so that after 30 days, he can transfer it to the recreational side.

Three of the largest licensed marijuana growers also own recreational outlets. This makes it hard for owners like Jawad to obtain recreational products.

The state also issued licenses for a testing laboratory, three recreational cannabis transportation companies, and to an event coordinator.

Experts are certain that cannabis industry actors like Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSX: RIV) (OTC: CNPOF) and Sproutly Canada Inc. (CSE: SPR) (OTCQB: SRUTF) (FRA: 38G) are happy for the people of Michigan who are finally getting to enjoy the benefits, such as jobs, created by the marijuana industry.

420 with CNW – Two More Polls Show Americans Support Marijuana Legalization

The majority of  U.S. citizens are in favor of broad marijuana legalization, revealed two new national surveys.

A Fox News poll found that 63 percent of the poll survey participants are in support of the legalization of recreational marijuana across the country while 34 percent are against the marijuana reform policy. There were 1,000 respondents, and the survey was conducted through phone interviews in the month of December.

A Marist survey involved 1,744 respondents and was conducted in partnership with NPR and PBS. The poll was also held this month, from the 9th to the 11th. The survey findings showed that 62 percent of the participants support the idea of legalizing adult-use marijuana, while 33 percent are not in favor of the policy.

The last poll conducted by Fox News was in January of 2018, where 59 percent supported legalization. Marist conducted its latest survey in July of 2019 and found that 63 percent support the legalization of marijuana.

Speaking to Marijuana Moment, the political director of NORML, Justin Strekal, said that the Americans could voice their support for the cannabis policy reform during the holidays when the topic is brought up, especially at a dinner table. He also added that people should demand the end of marijuana prohibition ahead of the 2020 elections since it is clear that the majority of the Americans are in favor of legalization.

Marist report the poll responses according to parties as has been the norm of several surveys. They identified the respondents as Democrats, Republicans, or Independents. The survey found that 76 percent of Democrats support the legalization, while 44 percent represented respondents who identified as Republican and were in favor of the policy.

The most significant opposition towards legalization was realized amongst the Americans who supported President Trump in the 2016 elections. This equated to 55 percent of the respondents, while 40 percent of the supporters backed the policy.

The poll also found that except for the Silent Generation, which comprises people older than 73 years, all other age groups support the legalization of marijuana. However, the Fox News poll did not provide the demographic details of the supporters and opponents of legalization in their survey.

These are the latest polls in a pool of recent polls showing increased support for the legalization of marijuana.

Last month the Pew Research center conducted a survey involving 10,000 respondents. The poll found that 67 percent of the participants are in favor of marijuana legalization. Gallup also surveyed people in October and found that 66 percent of U.S. citizens are in support of legalization.

The issue of marijuana legalization has been a major topic of discussion among the majority of 2020 Democratic presidential candidates. Apart from the former vice president Joe Biden and Michael Bloomberg, the other Democratic presidential candidates are in favor of marijuana legalization.

Experts wonder what recommendations companies like The Supreme Cannabis Company Inc. (TSX.V: FIRE) (OTCQX: SPRWF) and Marijuana Company of America Inc. (OTCQB: MCOA) have for raising the stakes so that elections can be won or lost based on a candidate’s views on matters of marijuana legalization.
