    Why is weed treated this way, yet alcohol (which is more dangerous) is able to market to teens, have celebrities, and can have commercials showing only the ‘fun’ you’ll have, without an issue. Totally hypocritical!

    Well I’ll not support government or corporate totalitarianism in the cannabis industry. I guess they’ve lost a customer. haha

    Not allowed to directly advertise to the consumer yet so much "free" media time for tweed,edison and soleil.

  17. @jjjj-bb8gn on June 16, 2024 at 6:37 pm

    πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ ya buy it in small containers so they can rip apart those nice big frosty buds. No thanks. I’ll wait til it’s privatized and continue going to the illegal shops and to my dealers. Prices are to high in Ontario and shit product so far.



  18. @flyingarmadildo7748 on June 16, 2024 at 6:37 pm

    fuck the government, The dealers gotta eat too



  19. @thankgoditsfrida on June 16, 2024 at 6:38 pm

    Oh man, the packaging is so stale. I get it, but damn. I’m curious to see what the Ontario stores will look like. Prob like the packaging? 😩

    This is absolute stupidity at its best. The government does not put these kind of strict of regulations on Alcohol or cigarettes, which can kill you far more easily then cannabis. As far as advertising these companies aren’t shit, Drugs sell themselves and prospered when it was illegal under word of mouth advertising. No one that uses cannabis cares about what it is called the only thing that matters is the quality of the product, which these major companies are failing at. Also, the music and entertainment industry already does a good enough job of glamourizing and advertising the use of cannabis to minors EX) dazed & confused, Snoop Dogg, and Ted with a talking teddy bear that smokes and promotes using cannabis. Its time to stop this demonizing nonsense and actually educate children and people.Its this kind of false propaganda that makes cannabis a gateway drug. This guy forgets about Pareto’s Law where 80% of your revenue is going to come from 20% of your customer base, which is those users that already consume on a regular basis and focusing all your efforts on first time users is a waste of time. Lastly, the packaging of this product is absolutely unnecessary it is way over done and not to mention the environmental impact this will have on the planet. Also, warning’s don’t work like the red stop sign because no one cares or reads them just like on cigarettes but have rather become a joke to people that do smoke. Please correct this lack of common sense within our government.

    Hear I thought Canadians we’re smarter than Americans but guess like most wise tells this one too was false.
    Before a small plastic bag was used in most cases and a few earth nuts used mason jars.
    Now if you go buy 1oz of flower you end up with 4oz of plastic containers WHAT THE HELL…
