Canadian Banks Are Leaving Legal Cannabis Businesses Out In The Cold And More Global Weed Updates
During the inaugural Caribbean Medico-Legal Cannabis Conference dubbed CANNA-BLISS last week, Dr. Terrance Drew, the prime minister of St Kitts and Nevis, unveiled the nation's intentions to use the economic potential of medicinal cannabis. In the meantime, according to industry advocates, the unwillingness of Canada's major banks to engage with the legal cannabis industry results in undermined accountability and support of the country's black market. Thailand's marijuana legalization efforts over the years have transformed the country into a regional hub for weed product development and cultivation. As a result, there has been a surge in the availability of cannabis products in the market, with a portion of these products making their way into stores in neighboring Laos.
