Sol is brilliant and I'll miss him so much. If you're looking for an excellent journalist, public speaker and a great hang, call Sol.
Wednesday was my last day as a reporter with @MJBizDaily I will miss working with my fellow reporters @matt_lamers, @katierowboat, @ccasacchia and @_chrisroberts, as well as the rest of the wonderful, dedicated MJBizDaily team.
I love that Chicago has so many relatively low-key tributes scattered about the city. You could walk past every day and hardly notice this one. "No big deal, this is just the site where ABRAHAM LINCOLN WAS NOMINATED." 🎩
Lots of talk this week about the DEA rescheduling the plant, but let’s not forget those still serving murderer’s time like Daniel Trevino and need clemency. @POTUS it’s time to right the wrongs for the men and women who are still sitting in federal prison for cannabis. I stand…
I missed this earlier. Sundial, a Canadian cannabis firm, will acquire US cannabis assets through a joint venture with Sunstream Bancorp. Similar structure to Canopy USA. prnewswire.com/news-releases/…
You wanna know why all these festivals are failing? Because 20 years ago, festivals were few and far between. They catered to the fan music experience - and bands didn’t play 6 different festies, this hit one. Now it’s oversaturated last stage capitalism garbage.
When San Jose (1M ppl) allowed cannabis sales, it forced all dispensaries into District 7 & District 9, two heavily industrial, remote parts of the city. But today @purplelotusca opens the first ever dispensary in downtown San Jose, near vibrant San Pedro Square. Game-changer.

@MarioMadison13 I loved it, it is hard not to enjoy the experience. N4 of Phish was mind bending.
With both @matt_lamers and @sol_israel announcing their departures today I really hope that @MJBizDaily isn’t giving up on Canadian coverage. That would be a big loss for the Canadian cannabis industry as well as for MJBIZ. I’m saying that as a daily reader.
Onward and upward @matt_lamers and @sol_israel. Wherever they go next will be lucky to have them.
I wish downtown SF was ready for recovery! I have an entitlement to build a cannabis retail one block from Union Square. It’ll be sometime b4 that happens though. I hear First Thursday went well though! So good news there.

I’m in @TheAtlantic today writing about how rescheduling cannabis will make it far easier to study how the drug affects our brains and bodies. theatlantic.com/health/archive…
@matt_lamers We are systematically loosing all of the greats in Canadian cannabis news. This one hits me hard (not that it's about me). You've contributed so much and your investigative journalism was invaluable. I'm so sorry to hear this Matt but welcome to the scrappy freelance crew 🔥
Thank you to the thousands of executives, entrepreneurs, lawyers, financiers, advocates and others who answered my calls and entrusted me with your knowledge. I was hard on some of you, but hope I was always fair. I'm grateful for the opportunity to interview so many of you.
