What does your perfect system look like?

[ricky1lung]

Actually I'll expand a bit on regulations here.

Regulations are brought in to address an issue, like the SEC in the states to prevent stock shadiness.

What is the reason for 'regulation' when it comes to cannabis? There's some conflicting interests between med and rec for sure, but where are all the people who have either gotten sick or died from 'unregulated' weed?

Mold? Pesticides? Whatever else there could be in any given bag?
Nope no reason to regulate.
Med section?

 

[OGEvilgenius]

Gov controls kept the prices in check.
You sure about that now?

I'm not going to comment further on this case as I don't know every specific detail off hand. But my understanding is he bought the rights to an old drug, applied for patents for a new novel purpose - was granted them - and then jacked prices through the roof. And yeah, we control drug prices in Canada to a degree. And they're way too high.

And yet not one person has proven me wrong. They spin in other directions but that's it.

I've yet to see you refute any argument, or provide evidence of your outlandish claims. The closest you've come is quoting articles that have nothing to do with the Canadian market.

Exactly how did you arrive at the conclusion that people here are 'pro-BM'?

Where's the evidence of an epidemic of mold from dispensaries?

Where's the evidence of dispensaries using pesticides harmful to humans?

Because they shout it to the sky regularly!

You asked me to prove something I never said, I posted 3 articles that show how unapproved or banned substances were found in dispensary weed. Just like I initially said when you so cleverly and conveniently attempted to deflect and divert attraction from the point.

If you think it doesn't happen in Canada and is only limited to Oregon, Washington or Colorado, well, I'm not sure what to tell you.

Life hurts, here's your helmet.

It's been fun.
Family time.

Smoke a fat one and enjoy your night.

How long have you been using mj?
Is tweed the best product you have ever had?

I like it. Using for about a year. It's not always the best. I've seen some great stuff though compared to when I was a kid.

 

[JungleStrikeGuy]

Since you're devolving into pure ad-hominem I guess we're done here (again). Listing articles about another jurisdiction means nothing in regard to Canadian dispensaries.

You use the same line of reasoning that Holmquist, the RCMP and HC did in court. Equally as incorrect here as it was in Allard, so.

Dude your the one that said your to paranoid to shop at fruit markets Walmart and the dollar store and those places are regulated, so maybe with the testing and regulations you need maybe you should hold onto those helmets.

Even if he could provide evidence, it really proves nothing. Murder is also illegal as is inflicting harm on others in general (knowingly), doesn't mean every dispensary is doing it (or any). And no one is really claiming that an unregulated market would always have honest actors - it obviously wouldn't. Which is why having a choice is really important. Whereas the government is always influenced by dishonest actors and frequently works to limit choice to those actors benefit.

No one has ever been injured/hurt from cc/dispensary weed ever in Canada. You're asking a mentally deficient individual to prove it has happened. Good luck In Your endevor.

yeah like...

lol

Who in their right mind is scared to shop at a farmers market? That strikes me as pretty damn paranoid to the point of being totally unreasonable and probably within some diagnosis guideline... but anyway.

I don't trust Walmart because of where most of their products come from, same goes for dollar stores.

We know where it comes from and the lack of regulations during production, but it's cheap right, so it must be good.

I live in a community of farmers, I know better than to trust many of them because I know first hand how they are and how they produce their livestock or produce.

I'm sorry if I expect the things I buy to meet a standard that is clearly above some, however, holding people or producers to a higher standard helps everyone.

No he just bought the company that was the sole mfg in the us for the drug. No change in its use no new patent. It took compounding pharmacy about a month to come to the rescue.

I feel bad for your situation.
If you really think that tweed provides high quality meds then you would be amazed by what's really out there.
The process they put those meds through robs the user from half of the positives it could provide.

And compared to when I was a kid I'd say anything green and not full of seeds was a miracle but the times have truly changed.

Perhaps I'm thinking of a different case. I believe this happened two different times recently. Sounds like the market solved the problem quickly though.

It's part of why the end product is un affordable and robbed of the properties in it u want.
Med grade doesn't have to taste n smell like hand sanitizer to protect everyone

Yes, and yes.
But left to him and his ideas what would've happened?

Regulations and laws helped.

No, competition helped actually. If he didn't have government protection he wouldn't be able to control the price. Someone else could make it in his place and he'd be forced into a competitive pricing scheme. That happened anyway because apparently the guy in question is a moron.

What process? Irradiation? Because not everything they have is irradiated.

From the pictures I see on the internet, most of what I see from Tweed is better.
