The New Year is on the way! I broke up a couple nugs, lit up a smoke, watched some cannabis news on the Tube - here's few reports that peaked my interest.
Cannabis Legalized in Trinidad and Tobago
It is now legal to smoke cannabis in Trinidad and Tobago, and to have up to 30 grams in possession. Each residence is allowed to grow four plants for consumption. Amazing news for Trinidad and Tobago.
Cannabis Industry Outlook 2020
There were high hopes for the new cannabis industry stock profits, but it has yet to live up to the expectations, they anticipate many cannabis companies to disappear in the new year as the strongest survive. Edibles coming to Canada for 2020. The United States Federal cannabis legalization estimate is anywhere from 2022 to 2028, not any time soon - many companies have been making investments with the hopes of the US Fed eventually legalizing cannabis. It seems that the US Fed legalizing cannabis largely hinges on enough States legalizing cannabis.
Breaking the Law to Treat Chronic Pain with Cannabis
'They're in desperation': Women breaking the law to treat endometriosis pain | ABC News
ABC News Australia Reports that Steph has chronic pain from Endometriosis and pays $200-$600 per month for pain medication that doesn't bring her much relief, she sought medicinal cannabis for pain relief. The doctors in her country didn't believe a cannabis prescription was for her ailment. Other people with similar chronic pain have experienced relief with cannabis, Steph is waiting for studies to get access to legal medical cannabis. There are many prescription drugs that could be replaced with cannabis alternatives that are more effective, affordable, and with less adverse reactions or addictive properties.
I'm looking forward to more countries legalizing cannabis for recreational and natural medicine uses in the New Year.
