TORONTO – A pair of licensed cannabis stores selling unregulated hemp products have prompted Ontario’s pot regulator to issue a warning to retailers.

The Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario warned pottery stores on Monday that it had discovered cases of retailers selling products that violate the terms of their license, in a letter obtained by The Canadian Press.

“AGCO has learned that some cannabis licensees offer and sell cannabis products, such as lotions, edibles, topicals, etc., that were not purchased from Ontario Cannabis. Store (OCS), â€the regulator wrote in the letter.

The OCS is the provincial distributor of jars for Ontario.

“We have also become aware that some retailers offer and sell cannabis products in packaging other than the original OCS packaging.”

Licensed Ontario cannabis stores are only permitted to sell potted and hemp products purchased from the OCS and should keep the items in their original packaging.

Hemp products contain tiny or trace amounts of THC, the active ingredient in marijuana.

AGCO spokesperson Raymond Kahnert said in an email that the message was sent by compliance officials who became aware of hemp products offered for sale at two cannabis stores in the southwestern region of the province.

The AGCO considers items derived from hemp, such as lotions and oils, to be cannabis products, which retailers must purchase from the OCS.

The products discovered by compliance officers had not been purchased from the OCS and the two retailers immediately stopped selling the items following discussions, Kahnert said.

Jennawae McLean, co-founder of Kingston, Ontario. Cannabis store chain Calyx + Trichomes said it needed to pick up its “jawbone off the ground” when AGCO’s letter was sent to pottery store owners.

She has never heard of or seen a licensed cannabis store selling unregulated products.

“I’m completely shocked that someone is doing either of these things so brazenly,†she said.

“It’s pretty daring, blatantly breaking the law and regulations and jeopardizing your livelihood. It’s completely bananas.

Although she is unaware of the circumstances surrounding unregulated goods, she said the market for illicit products that AGCO has warned against is small and unlikely to generate much money for perpetrators.

Between July and September, the OCS website and authorized pot stores sold approximately $ 2.4 million in topicals and $ 18 million in edibles, a marked difference from sales of dried flowers from 206 million dollars recorded during the same period.

McLean was also disappointed that licensed stores offered unregulated, repackaged products, as she felt those actions ignored the long and tiresome fight by cannabis advocates to get the substance legalized in the first place.

“It is bordering on insult that someone undermines the regulatory framework that we have worked so hard to establish,” she said.

“But on the other hand, I’m sad for them because it could be an act of desperation because the store owners are struggling to compete.”

This report by The Canadian Press was first published on December 23, 2021.

Aurora Mayor Richard Irvin, who is currently running for governor of Illinois, arrived at the scene last year of an arrest by Aurora police in which his girlfriend from the era was accused of punching a security guard at a marijuana store.

The charges against her “would be dealt with,” a police officer heard her say, according to a police report on the incident obtained by the Aurora Beacon-News and the Chicago Tribune. She was charged with a breach of ordinance for assault and battery, a minor municipal charge.

In a GOP primary race where Irvin stood as a law-and-order candidate, the revelation that he ran during an arrest by Aurora police opposite his girlfriend threatens to damage the image he’s trying to cultivate through a relentless, tough-on-crime ad campaign.

Irvin disputes the characterization of his comments which were included in the police report and that it could have implied that he used his influence as mayor to influence the charges against his then-girlfriend, Laura Ayala- Clarke, saying it was “actually incorrect”.

While acknowledging that he might have said the “charges would be taken care of,” as the report states, he said in an interview with the Tribune and Beacon-News that he assured Ayala-Clarke that ‘She would get a lawyer and the case would be taken to court.

“When I told her that…things would ‘get sorted’, I meant she would get a lawyer, and that’s what I helped her do,” Irvin said. “I told her specifically not to discuss or have conversations with the police about this, that it would be dealt with in court and that it would be taken care of, since that, you know, she would have a lawyer. And she’s got lawyers, and they’re on it from now on.

Facing five naysayers who have focused much of their political anger on him in part because his campaign received $45 million from Citadel CEO Ken Griffin, Irvin on Wednesday sought to hush up the news included in the police report , which was released by Aurora Police. Department following a public records request. His campaign provided an unredacted version of the report to clarify any issues about what happened at the Zen Leaf in Aurora on May 24, 2021, he said.

The report describes in detail what happened, according to the police.

Ayala-Clarke went to the store to buy cannabis products and needed to get $100 from an ATM that was inside the store. When the ATM didn’t work, she became frustrated, the report says, and when she complained to store employees, they told her to contact the company that runs the ATM. Ayala-Clarke said she won’t be leaving until her boyfriend, Irvin, arrives, according to the report.

After Ayala-Clarke refused to leave for an hour, a security guard told police she tried to grab Ayala-Clarke’s right arm to get her to leave, but Ayala-Clarke had kicked the security guard in the leg and punched her in the abdomen before the guard sprayed Ayala-Clarke in the face, according to the report.

In his interview with the Tribune and Beacon-News, Irvin said Ayala-Clarke called him in a “frantic circumstance” because she wanted someone to drive her home after the fight. After Irvin arrived at the scene, a police officer informed her that she was charged while sitting in Irvin’s car.

“She said she shouldn’t be charged because security got hold of her. Her boyfriend heard the information about the accusation and was upset that security got hold of Ayala-Clarke,” police said. “Her boyfriend called someone via Bluetooth in the vehicle and told the charges and relayed to the person on the other end of the phone that the ‘charges would be picked up’.”

Asked to respond, Irvin said the characterization in the police report was “actually incorrect”.

“What I’m saying is, in the car, I explained the loads of documentation to her after the police gave them to her, and I drove her home,” Irvin said.

He also said he did not recall talking to anyone through his Bluetooth.

“I had no conversation with anyone other than Laura in the car,” he said.

Irvin also denied any involvement in trying to have the charges against Ayala-Clarke changed.

Aurora police spokesperson Paris Lewbel said it was at the discretion of an officer to decide whether to charge a case as a violation of local ordinance or as a criminal matter under state law and will often cite someone under a local ordinance for minor cases, such as trespassing or battery. .

Before Irvin arrived on the scene, Ayala-Clarke repeatedly referenced Irvin, saying, “I’m going to call my boyfriend. You don’t know who my boyfriend is. He’s the mayor of Aurora,” as she complained about the ATM not working for her, according to the police report.

“He’s going to shut you guys down for doing all of this and not giving my money back,” she said, according to the security guard’s account to police.

Records show Irvin reappointed Ayala-Clarke to the city’s Hispanic Heritage Advisory Board, which advises the city on issues involving the Hispanic community and plans events, such as Fiestas Patrias. This is an unpaid position.

The guard declined to speak to the Tribune and the Beacon-News. In another text message, she wrote, “I wish I could help, but I just don’t want to be exposed to the public.”

Ayala-Clarke also declined to speak to a reporter.

Irvin said when he arrived he saw Ayala-Clarke outside on the sidewalk of Zen Leaf and walked her to the ambulance, where she washed her eyes and then went to sit in Irvin’s car.

When asked if he had saved her from being arrested, Irvin replied, “No, not at all. I’m sure it would be in the police report if I did. As you can see, if I was trying to influence this, my name probably wouldn’t have appeared in the police report at all.

Irvin, who has often dodged reporters, pointed out that he discussed the issue with newspapers because he wanted to be “transparent” about the issue.

“I have nothing to hide,” Irvin said. “I had nothing to do with…the incident other than bringing a friend home.”

BETHEL – The Stoned Moose, soon to be Bethel’s first recreational marijuana store, won board approval last week in a 4-1 vote with a disqualified board member.

Members Dwayne Bennett, Jim Bennett, Carolyn Dunn and Meryl Kelly were in favor, with Laurie Winsor opposed and Cherie Thurston challenged as she recently sold a property owned by Mike and Jodi Everett, who will operate The Stoned Moose.

Mike and Jodi, who already run Moosehead Farms, a medical marijuana store just off Route 2 on Sunday River Road, hope to open the new store by mid-August.

The Stoned Moose will be on the same property as Moosehead Farms, but in a different building, as the state says recreational and medical marijuana cannot be distributed from the same building.

Work on the building began this week with the pouring of the foundations. The building will have an area of ​​320 square feet.

Everett expects to get approval for a retail license at this week’s board meeting.

The store will have the same address as Moosehead Farms at 22 Sunday River Road, Bethel.

Weekend greetings, everyone!

Last week, NY Cannabis Insider ran a slew of stories about the progress — and in some cases, the shortcomings — of the state’s legal marijuana market. Let’s take a look at some of the stories we’ve been tracking:

On Thursday, we organized a story by Brad Racino This begs an important question: if NY wants to create the most equitable cannabis industry in the United States, why are the state’s own positions vacant?

As Brad points out in the article, the state’s Office of Cannabis Management has yet to hire a director of equity, and a 13-member advisory board to help the CMO and Council of cannabis control remains vacant. This despite the requirement of MRTA, the positions are filled and the fact that OCM is still ahead of the roll-out of regulations and the start of legal sales by the fall.

A CMO spokesperson told Brad that the agency was “working hard” to find a candidate for director of equity and was “nearly at the end of that process.” It is unclear when the members of the advisory board will be appointed. A spokesperson for Governor Hochul’s office previously said he expected the council to begin meeting in May, but had no substantive update as of last week.

In a survey piece we ran this weekBrad has delved into allegations of medical marijuana patients and argues that OCM is letting New York’s medical program crumble as it focuses its attention on creating a recreational market.

Stakeholders who spoke to NY Cannabis Insider said patients were experiencing long delays in enrolling in the medical program and many were unable to get the care they needed. Meanwhile, OCM has been plagued by technology issues and ignored patient concerns (according to patients) while trying to catch up after a delayed start in establishing the leisure market.

Antoine Scottifounding partner of the Colorado-based genetics brand Cherrywrote a column for us arguing that NY will fare better than other states that have legalized weed. Scotti thinks the state has already established a decent foundation to avoid issues that have plagued other legal states like market saturation, product overflow or shortage, and declining revenue.

We also organized a column invited by Scott Mazzaco-founder and COO of Buffalo’s CBD Vitality, in which Mazza advocates improving quality control for the New York CBD market. Mazza writes that some CBD suppliers ignore rules regarding quality and extraction. Hemp regulatory oversights have resulted in oils containing heavy metals and salves with fake organic credentials reaching store shelves.

Finally, the NY Cannabis Insider Summer Intern Andres Rendon made a Q&A with Saugerties Police Chief Joseph Sinagra on the shortcomings of the MRTA regarding the enforcement of the under-21 law. Sinagra has directed its department not to seize cannabis from anyone under the age of 21, saying “there are currently no mechanisms in place to enforce simple possession in small quantities” for this age group. .

More to come next week!

In 2021, we anticipated a wave of “new ideas, intrepid colors and textures, unexpected materials and big trendsâ€. We have been challenged to change our ways, and the cultural changes have been massive as a result. While there’s no way of knowing for sure what will happen in 2022, we have an idea of ​​what that might look like – we take ambiance controls very seriously in our work.

Next year, we expect to see more interiors organized to channel a sense of comfort and personality. We’ve had so much time to turn in on ourselves, and now we have the space to design every aspect of our lives from a more intentional place. Given that 2022 is the Year of the Tiger, we expect it to be bolder, more energetic, more rebellious, and more regal than ever. Below, we’ve presented a forecast with 10 trends that we believe will define interiors in 2022.

Strong and seduced

After being confined to our home for so long, the sterile nature of minimalism is out! More and more people are turning to maximalism with weird, whimsical, and rippling decor pieces that are bursting with unabashed fun energy. (Or is it the sound of the circus?) If pastel palettes introduced a necessary touch of sweetness, now is the time to shout “I have a voice with a point of viewâ€. The “basic forward†trend is more than a mood board borrowing the aesthetics of the Memphis movement: it is the start of a true design renaissance, and it is here to stay.

Geometric grid

As we explore the metaverse further, our interiors should reflect the journey of the digital world. Space designer Hanna Ali told us that this emerging ecosystem offers a whole new way to experience virtual architecture that is radically changing culture. Along with all the innovations around smarter technology, cryptocurrency, and NFTs, we’re also adapting to a hybrid lifestyle model. The checkered pattern has reigned supreme throughout the pandemic, but now that we’ve experienced the psychedelic, it’s time to get back to basics. Any architect will tell you how essential the grid is, and now more and more designs are paying homage to it.

Nowstalgia

From postmodern (now called ‘pomo’, aka ‘design emo’) and mid-century Bauhaus and Scandi, we all marvel at the past as we navigate our own aesthetic and develop style preferences. The smart big millennials have graduated from kindergarten but still want to play with their fake food because the fun doesn’t have to end at the dinner table. Meanwhile, Gen Z can’t seem to get enough of the Y2K culture. The resurgence of Polly Pockets also reminds us that the ongoing obsession with miniatures is multigenerational. Pro tip: Take notes from Jasmine Archie, Vivid Wu, and Lillian Ahenkan for some major inner inspiration.

Green is the new neutral

No matter the shade, it is the color of the year despite what Pantone says. If you don’t take our word for it, the folks at Benjamin Moore, Sherwin-Williams and Behr will be happy to support us here. We have already noted that shades like emerald bring a feeling of tranquility and rejuvenation to any space, whether it is a kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, bedroom, or living room. ‘a living room or an office. (It’s part of this ongoing process of reconnecting with nature.) The millennial rose remains in our hearts forever.

Goblincore mode

Speaking of green, we’re now going beyond the #cottagecore aesthetic and delving into sustainability even more with this more quirky twist on biophilia. In addition to reclaiming the wild side of nature and campaigning for inclusiveness in a kingdom of fantastic forest, goblin core calls for thrift store, second-hand shopping and collecting small shiny items. (In other words, vintage is here.) Basically, it’s about embracing a more eco-friendly lifestyle, with nature-inspired looks to match. Mushrooms, snails, frogs, plants and mosses are some of the main reasons for this trend, which obviously features an earthy palette. Interpret as you wish!

All cannabis all

Because you don’t have to be a stoner to appreciate the aesthetics of a stoner. There are so many stylish ways to incorporate cannabis into your home decor, from sculptures and flower arrangements to blankets and table books. The marijuana industrial complex will reach new heights in 2022 with increasing legalization in the United States, so don’t be surprised to see more weeds in the wild with the enormous growth of dispensaries and farms. The grass is greener now that we’re finally on the other side of this movement. (While you’re here, be sure to check out the highly recommended products in our gift guide on the subject.)

Glass blocks

With the popularity of transparency, there has been a resurgence of lucite and acrylic, so naturally the next “it” material is glass brick. Susan Alexandra has set the bar high with her flagship store filled with a rainbow of glass blocks. (Architectural designer Lula Galeano insists the material makes for a most fulfilling DIY furniture project.) The tiled table has had its heyday, but it’s about to be replaced with stone tables. glass blocks.

Modular furniture

Iconic pieces are cool, but multifunctional furniture is an even better investment now that our spaces have become versatile and objects are our closest companions. (True talk, there really is nothing more intimate.) We’ve all been struck by the curse of curves, but what could be more heartwarming than a big, fat sofa? What really stands the test of time is a modular set that you can put together and take apart as you like, like the Togo and Mah Jong sofas. We’re always one step closer to rekindling the conversation… And if you haven’t already noticed, the daybed is also back in fashion.

The books are back

It’s time to light up, if you know what I mean … Not only are more and more people organizing books for decoration (and their personal bookcases), but they are also building stairs and the tables from old books. Even if you’re not a die-hard bibliophile, designer Sophie Collé reminds us that books are great tools to use as visual references. “I’m not ashamed to admit that I’m just flipping through the photos, but it’s a great way to skip off Pinterest and learn a bit more about the story,†he explains. she. “People have done the job of keeping all of this information for us, so why not use it? Some 80s book covers are works of art, so I like to take them out even just for that. You heard it here first: Books are the new status symbol.

Reflections

Mirror, mirror, outside the walls! After such a long period of deep reflection, the future looks brighter than ever, and so does our decor. From garland curtains and disco balls to padded and spray foam mirrors, we all find our rhythm with pieces that sparkle and sparkle. Now that the portal has been opened, could mirrored ceilings be in our future? Only time will tell…

RAPID CITY, SD (KOTA) — Currently, recreational cannabis is illegal in South Dakota, but that’s not stopping some people from heading to the No Worries marijuana store in Pine Ridge.

Adonis Saltes, owner of the No Worries dispensary, said more than half of the customers who visit his store are from out of town. He adds that they come mainly from Rapid City, Chadron, Hot Springs and Gordon. Some even make the trip to Pine Ridge from Sioux Falls.

The increase in visitors is not only good for his store, but he says it also helps local stores thrive on the reserve.
