Canadian Craft Cannabis Panel – International Cannabis Business Conference Vancouver 2019

Canada has made great strides creating jobs, generating revenue, and leading G7 nations towards ending cannabis prohibition, however, one area that can be improved his helping develop a stable craft cannabis industry.

Small farmers and compassion clubs, starting in the medical field, helped build the foundation for legal cannabis commerce. Big mergers make headlines yet small and medium businesses, especially cultivators, are stifled, if not outright blocked, by burdensome overregulation.

This panel dives into what is being done, and what further can be done, in order to help a Canadian craft cannabis community survive and thrive in the legal, regulated market.

Panelists include: Travis Lane (Partner, Groundwork Consulting, Founder, Levity Solutions), David Hurford (Former National Policy Secretary, Liberal Party of Canada), Joel Podersky (Co-Founder, Cascadia Agricultural Co-Operative Association)

Moderator: Barinder Rasode (CEO Grow Tech Labs)
