I had presumed the next domino to fall in this legalization experience would be psychadelics like mushrooms and Ayahuasca, but now that you've said this, I think the next big piece of social change in our future is the legalization of prostitution.

The only people who benefit from it being criminalized are human traffickers. It doesn't keep the workers safe, it doesn't keep the society safe.

Change that law.

- a vapourizer (preferably portable, for flexibility - so many options and price points)
- strains to have available

Thanks in advance for the cannaBliss advice : )
That's something I've never even considered. I mean, kids bday parties and I ALWAYS have beer around. Same with family get togethers.

How cool is that when now we can have a few types of boutique strains around for people to try, some wine and a few beers while the kids play in a bouncy castle, or grandma gets stoned and destroys a bowl of ice cream.

What a time to be alive indeed!

Agree on the vape pens though. Get a few different flavours, and maybe have some disinfectant wipes for the mouthpiece? Not a big fan of sharing mine.

I don't think they'd investigate too much, but I wonder about people making reports to children's services if the busybodies are noticing people smoke with kids around.

Its not my business what other people do in their own homes or how they want to raise their kids. I am sure many feel the same.

Anyone know where to get CBD oil now? I’ve been using it for anxiety and depression and it’s been helping a lot, but albertacannabis doesn’t have any.

Before it was legal, cbd oil was available by getting medical card and buying off of LPs such as Aurora and Tilray. Not cheap through.

I'm sure it'll be more readily available as more shops open up.

Get a prescription and order it online. Lots of options from the LPs and you can use the receipts for taxes.

So, is it possible to order from the provincial governments of provinces you don't live in?

conceivably, are the provinces now in somewhat of a price competition?

30ml of oil was $75 at Nova, generally it’s $90-$95 at an LP. I think the minimum to be able to claim prescriptions on taxes is $3000 total expenses, but I can’t remember the exact number

I think that is correct, but it would be total medical expenses, not just prescriptions

Has anyone else noticed how the packaging is EXTREME OVERKILL. I mean a single gram comes in a container 50x the size it needs to be.

Government needs to chill the on the packaging regulations.

Volume is only one variable, potency also has to be factored in.
