Episode 40 - John Carle, Executive Director - Alberta Cannabis Council

What is the Alberta Cannabis Council and how can it help you? Those answers and more this week with the Executive Director of the ACC John Carle. Formerly in real estate John is now helping to steer this new industry in the right direction with input from across the industry. The ACC was instrumental in the Alberta government lifting the ban on vape pens and are now hoping to engage decision makers about cannabis cafes and lowering taxes. David Wylie of the oz and I discussed among other things Conservative Leadership hopeful Peter MacKay's baffling comments on cannabis legalization in This Week in Cannabis News. We also spoke about roadside testing, cannabis infused tea, quick onset drinks and Hobo Cannabis expansion. Chris Ianson of Nova Cannabis Jasper ave and I explored Death Bubba from Qwest, a high end, hard hitting heavy indica that is definitely not for beginners and productivity, it's a chill at the end of the day strain.
