I am honestly surprised, I knew they would do something stupid and shitty but they really topped themselves with this one.

Greed will kill them in 2 years or less. Not gonna be cheap to buy from them either....whew ! hahahahaha

At a premiers meeting in Edmonton in July, the premiers announced they would ask the federal government to postpone legalization if issues related to road safety, taxation, training for distributors and public education are not addressed.


What the fuck kind of "training for distributors" is required? That's a good one....I feel bad (sort of) for Ontario.

I'm guessing that same specialized training that one must acquire to sell cigarettes, booze and porn. Checking ID's and using complicated math formulas to determine the customer's age is a unique skill, I guess. I'm bettin' only unionized government employees will qualify...adding to the cost and bolstering BM sales.

I don't think too many peeps will be using them. When neighbors can give neighbors 1 zip at a time, who needs a store?

 

[TheRealDman]

Actually on day 1 of Rec, I will donate 32 zips (lab tested for no pesticides) to random folks in the tri-city area....just cuz I can.

 

[bigmanc]

Now to go back to the laws the task force suggested and see how harsh they are. What did they suggest for a price point?

I am fairly certain that my city (although small) would need at least 8 to in any way challenge the BM, but even then most people are going to give their money to the dude they know before some random dude in a store.

Lots of articles on this monumental fuck up. 150 LCBO off shoots selling weed. Aaaaaaaand yet another monopoly for Ontario Provincial Government. They consulted everyone from American businesses to LPs(WTF). Im sure they all had a say in how theyll each profit from it and not let the mom n pop grows in

Apparently they will also monopolize legal online sales for Ontario as well..

I swear that they meet every couple of weeks and brainstorm on how to piss people off as much as possible, idiots keep voting them in though.

Good luck running an indoor LP in Ontario, and competing with ones in Quebec. Slight difference in power rates, like 3 to 1. Even with a greenhouse you'd have to supplement in the winter. Not that it matters much because I doubt if one nerd owned growery in 100 could put out anything but schwag compared to real growers who have been refining the art for decades.

I wouldn't pay 5 cents for the buds I see on dispensary sites. First they gotta learn how to manicure buds, then they gotta learn how to cure buds, and if they follow the Internet tutorials they won't be able to. All they'll have is dried buds, not cured buds. You know, like everyone on this forum aside from me, and I don't feel like writing any tutes.

The curing that I developed has several stages, any one of which if skipped produces inferior product. There's washing related steps, temperature related steps, humidity related steps. It's complex. Just hanging the plants up and later jarring them ain't gonna cut it. That's amateur hour processing.

My sales are threw the roof. Just sold 5 pounds in 3 days.
I can get 1300 pounds from BC. They sell like hotcakes here in Onterrible.
No one wants this horrible LP poison. I'm making $700 bucks a p wholesale.
I can't even spend the money anymore. I get ounces of gold from Aus on Ebay.
I am building a fort of gold bars.

Idiots.
