Trudeau's Handling Of The Cannabis Industry Risks Public Safety

There won't be any craft growers, for the simple reason that they made the licensing requirements so much more strict than alcohol and tobacco that no average person could possibly comply.


Try putting a job ad out for a Cannabis quality assurance expert. I'm sure there's plenty of them around. Haven't you heard of the university degree for that? And notice that the cost of 800k to 1.5 mil is not even including the cost of the property. Lot's of moms and pops out there with that kind of money laying around, huh? No requirements like that for alcohol production, and alcohol is fucking deadly. They made the regulations the same as for pharmaceutical production, and Cannabis isn't a pharmaceutical. Pure THC might be, but not herbal Cannabis. And what quality assurance did they have at OrganiGram? Apparently very incompetent. So wtf good did THAT requirement do?
Considering mom n pop would be much smaller scale. They wouldnt need such high start up costs. Figured that would be obvious............Also the task force recommended craft grows be allowed. But whatever you say..........

I'm just an average Joe, I'll be applying for a rec production licence. $400k will get me in the door, with land and a building. I'm ready to go, everything is in place, just waiting on the legislation and regulations. I'm in it to win it. I'm starting small with scalability as key to my plan. $100 oz's all day retail, $1000lbs wholesale. Everything else is gravy.

Itsme.

If it was smaller it wouldn't even be profitable enough to be worthwhile, with all the requirements. They might make 100k a year, if it was just a couple people working on it. But having to have a chemist or whatever on site would cost more than that, so they'd make nothing or actually lose money. If they could even make a profit, it would take them the rest of their lives to ever pay off the loans.

What requirements? What do I need chemist for? 3rd party testing is cheap, and non biased. A $400k investment will pay for itself in 1 year @ $1000lbs.

Did the quote I posted say "must take it to some lab and have it tested"? No, it said you have to have a guy on staff. Don't you think somebody else would have tried that by now? That guy's salary alone would probably be about 250k a year.

Here's what you do. You take that 400k and you put it into an index investment on the stock market and you take in about 8% a year fairly reliably. That's more than you would ever make from legally producing Cannabis. Canopy hasn't made a goddamn cent yet.

Show me where it says that, your talking out your ass. The regs. Aren't even out. We are talking rec. no? Lab rats are cheap. They only need to verify the lab reports and release the product for sale, in the ACMPR.

Whatever buddy. You go after that license then. Don't let me discourage you. You might actually make a profit before you die of old age, who knows.

400 gs invested properly in cannabis would be a quicker investment and pretty much guaranteed and a far better return lol

where did you get your pot Business license from?

he means they are trying to force the same regs i think lol
Whoa.....your sticking up for Bob? You must really dislike me....lol

Anything about the new rec. system is purely speculative, nobody knows. Arguing over non exsistance regulations is a moot point. Let's reconvene next week when legislation is announced.

$400k would be the min. to get in the market. With that I can profit $1000 a day @ wholesale prices. It's not rocket science. My team has gone over my plan backwards and forwards, it's solid. Retail would double the profits.
