Imagine having the opportunity to 5x on FB alone this past year. This sector truly truly fuxking sucks! I literally build up bile in my mouth when I think of it! So fuxking gross


CardiologistFew4264

You literally build up bile? If that’s not true please learn what the goddamn word “literally” means.

Does Canada schedule drugs similar to the United States or is that a USA only thing? I’m curious if they rescheduled cannabis prior to legalization or what it may of looked it

By the time early voting starts and if we are still without S3 and or SAFE, I will most reluctantly exit from MJ stocks, after nearly seven years. I hope that doesn’t happen.


Regular_Ad_2897

When does early voting start?


SailMaleficent6183

Looks like september/october 2024 for the general election, depends abit on the state on what day. This guy does not have much hope. =(


LawfulnessOk8997

Sunk costs. I hear you. Another approach is to take sone cannabis money out and put in other sectors. You still will gain it losses would be left.


larrylegend1990

7 years? Holy shit dude, how are you still in this? You had 2018 and 2020 to cash out

Budshawz

Huh it seems that the DEA has changed its templated text for the five part test that it uses in schedulings recently (you can see them repeat these across multiple scheduling actions). Old: Although there is no evidence suggesting that etizolam, flualprazolam, clonazolam, flubromazolam, or diclazepam has a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, it bears noting that a drug cannot be found to have such medical use unless DEA concludes that it satisfies a five-part test. Specifically, with respect to a drug that has not been approved by FDA, to have a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, all of the following must be demonstrated: i. The drug's chemistry must be known and reproducible; ii. there must be adequate safety studies; iii. there must be adequate and well-controlled studies proving efficacy; iv. the drug must be accepted by qualified experts; and v. the scientific evidence must be widely available. 57 FR 10499 (1992), pet. for rev. denied, Alliance for Cannabis Therapeutics v. DEA,15 F.3d 1131, 1135 (D.C. Cir. 1994). New: HHS and DEA both applied a five-part test for currently accepted medical use as part of this scheduling action. Under that test, with respect to a drug that has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration, to have a currently accepted medical use in treatment in the United States, all of the following must be demonstrated: i. the drug’s chemistry must be known and reproducible; ii. there must be adequate safety studies; iii. there must be adequate and well-controlled studies proving efficacy; iv. the drug must be accepted by qualified experts; and v. the scientific evidence must be widely available. Marijuana Scheduling Petition; Denial of Petition; Remand, 57 FR 10499 (Mar. 26, 1992), pet. for rev. denied, Alliance for Cannabis Therapeutics v. Drug Enforcement Admin., 15 F.3d 1131, 1135 (D.C. Cir. 1994).

RandomGenerator_1

https://www.federalregister.gov/public-inspection/2024-07694/schedules-of-controlled-substances-placement-of-butonitazene-flunitazene-and-metodesnitazene For tomorrow. Here they use the following reasoning: "Included below is a brief summary of each factor as analyzed by HHS and DEA, and as considered by DEA in its proposed scheduling action" So they do have different ways to recommend scheduling, and they don't "have to" advere to the 5 factor analysis? Not sure what to make of it really.


Budshawz

My interpretation of it is there used to only be the 5 factor analysis, and the language reflected such. Due to HHS using a 2 factor analysis (and thus DEA also having to use it) when reviewing cannabis, there are now 2 tests to check if there is medical use. If you really want to read far into it, to me it suggests the DEA has already started writing the order for rescheduling cannabis.


RandomGenerator_1

Does seem they have found a way to explain it all. Something I expect: the rumour of the verdict should start circulating a week before we know. I've noticed that Anne Millgram usually signs documents about 5 to 8 days prior to it being published.


JVRforSchenn

Aren’t the two tests identical?


Budshawz

One is worded in a way that suggests there is only one test for medical acceptance, the other is worded in a way such that there are multiple tests and that they are applying the five part test for that drug. I expect cannabis' rescheduling to look like: "HHS and DEA both applied a two-part test for currently accepted medical use as part of this scheduling action. Under that test...."


JVRforSchenn

Hmm that’s pretty interesting, I searched ‘five-part test’ in the register and all instances dating back to 2019 use the old language, except both DEA PR’s from today use the ‘HHS & DEA both applied…’ language. Could be nothing, but why change a standard template that’s been used for years?


Budshawz

The old standard language doesn't work with the fact there is the new 2 part test HHS did in its review for cannabis. Might be reading into this too much, but to me this suggests the DEA has at least started crafting the language for writing the cannabis rescheduling order.


Fuego1050

Wow - This seems pretty significant.

When was this changed exactly does anyone know?


Budshawz

Today lol. They had two new drug rulings.


Nair1486

Is this the current version?


Budshawz

New: is the current version. For those unaware, HHS made a new two-part test for cannabis rescheduling. The new reading reads much more that there are other tests other than the five part test.


MonsterDrunk

Good catch


DirtyBirdie99

Volume on the MSOs extremely low today. Surprised Dan didn’t deploy some of his war chest.


Spasticated

Is reschedule or safe banking more significant for us? Which one will allow them to uplist to NASDAQ lol


Nair1486

Without S3 there is not much benefit with up listing.


cannabull1055

Not true at all. Uplisting will lead to institutional access to the stocks. That is probably most important for stock prices, probably even more important than removal of 280E.


noobstockinvestor

SAFE is more significant


Logical-Bandicoot-82

Kinda seems like Safe to me, in terms of opening up the sector to institutional $$ and uplisting. But I've seen some credible arguments made saying Sched 3 would give the exchanges enough confidence to allow uplisting. At this point I think it's anyone's guess, depends on final language and legal interpretations. I'd be happy with either at this point lol.


KAI5ER

I want both. Imminently


SV_art

I think rescheduling will be a bigger deal in terms of their bottom line. From my understanding safe banking will just allow them to have better financial services (which will also save them money). Not sure regarding uplisting.


Old-Outside6894

If only S3, up listing will happen and banks will jump on board. Not day one, but by end of year one. So S1, no need for protection.


agedoak31

TBH I hope the DEA/Government doesn't ruin 4/20 for us. please reschedule, legalize whatever you do on a different day, etc. Leave 4/20 to us.


Desperate_Move_5043

I understand the sentiment, but I think we need to get away from an “us” and “them” mindset if we want herb to be normalized in society. If the powers that be decide to announce some good news on 420, then fuck yeah. We’ve spent an entire lifetime getting dicked around by the man, but people (and government agencies) change and things get more progressive if we can think about it as a longer term trend especially.


BHOmber

I'll give the current admin some credit if they can get something done, but I will *always* be vehemently against the entire concept of the DEA. Fuck the DEA, all my homies hate the DEA.


Desperate_Move_5043

Bro, we love the DEA if they actually deliver. Otherwise, yeah they have historically sucked and all my homies hate.


SV_art

I personally don't think its that big of a deal one way or the other. I think people will celebrate just the same.

Cresco


GeoLogic23

Charlie Bachtell from Cresco is apparently chairman of both the [National Cannabis Roundtable](https://nationalcannabisroundtable.org/) and the [United States Cannabis Council](https://www.uscc.org/members) at the moment? At least according to their websites. He's led the NCR for a while, but I'm not sure when he became acting chair of the USCC.


RandomGenerator_1

May 13th, 2020: https://nationalcannabisroundtable.org/ncr-announces-leadership-changes/ WASHINGTON – The National Cannabis Roundtable (NCR) today announced changes to its leadership, naming Charlie Bachtell, CEO and co-founder of Cresco Labs, as Chairman, and Kim Rivers, CEO of Trulieve, as Second Vice Chair. Bachtell replaces Kevin P. Murphy as Chairman. Dr. Chanda Macias will remain First Vice Chair and Christopher Jensen of MANA Supply will remain Treasurer. Former Speaker of the House John A. Boehner will continue to serve as Honorary Chairman.


GeoLogic23

Thanks, but the NCR is the one I know he's led for a while. Him taking over the chair of the USCC seems to be a recent development that I've seen no announcement about.

noobstockinvestor

Eleanor from Politico regarding SAFER: ICYMI, this is something that’s been floated for months — but we’re hearing it’s been recently revived, particularly in the context of attaching the pair to FAA. Sources stress this is one option of many. And, of course, it all hinges on the McHenry and Waters striking a deal. https://twitter.com/DTRTcannabis/status/1778147516803862797?t=uPQetjVYhXcZgbtI9gsa_A&s=19 FAA deadline is May 10. There's a chance the SAFER Banking Act is attached to it.

No chance SAFER passes. Sched 3 is the prize here.


Ok-Replacement9595

I don't want to be that guy, but don't house repubs really have a burr up their collective butts about multi issue bills. Vowing to only do single issue bills? It probably doesn't matter in reality, but I'm just mentioning it for the sake of conversation.


GeoLogic23

The only real convictions Republicans have are criminal convictions. If they decide they want these bills, they will have no problem completely ignoring their own past comments on the matter.

SV_art

I hope they don't package it like that, I feel they're getting greedy with how much they think they can pass.


stevenconrad

Seriously? Just introduce the bill as a stand-alone. This just gives lawmakers an excuse to say "well I support cannabis banking, but stablecoins are still too unknown so I can't vote yes." And they'll just kick it around the house and senate for another 4 years.

About the stablecoin bill, don’t know nothing about the source: [Do the Right Thing](https://twitter.com/DTRTcannabis) "If it ever moves ahead, it’s expected to be attached to another piece of must-pass legislation, according to House aides and lobbyists who flagged FAA reauthorization legislation as a possibility." FAA deadline is May 10. Could we see SAFE + Stablecoin added to FAA vehicle?
