Although Israeli law says CBD is only legal if it is synthetic retailers say authorities aren’t enforcing the rule and they sell full spectrum products freely

Israel’s Cannabis .com reports

The Ministry of Health has stated that CBD is only legal if it issynthetic, that is, not manufactured from cannabis, but in practice – the Israeli market is full of CBD “Paul Spectrum” products produced directly from cannabis. After years of activity mainly through online sites in Hebrew that ship the products from abroad, CBD products can also recently be found in physical stores and kiosks

In Israel,  the legal status of cannabidiol remains illegal today. Although in 2017 “Confused” by the police To think that this is a perfectly legal product because its explicit name does not appear in the drug command like the THC, but “aligned” shortly thereafter Hosted by the Ministry of Health. In 2022 he first published the Ministry of Health First official draft Which should have made the CBD legal in Israel in a certain format – not as a food additive nor in cosmetics ( It is unknown when exactly ), and last month, December 2022, The Ministry of Health first provided clarification that CBD is allowed to sell In its synthetic form only, That is as long as it is not made from cannabis. However, last weekend the FDA, the US Medicines and Food Agency, issued a statement Imposing restrictionsOn the production and marketing of CBD products, which experts in the field may cancel the Israeli program as presented

But in the meantime, while the authorities are conducting discussions and writing drafts for programs over the years, in practice, in reality itself, the market is not waiting and is slowly “creeping” into the common past. The novelty is that today, unlike before, it seems that There is no real enforcement on the subject anymore. Today, there are stores, both online and physical, that sell CBD products quite freely, even when it comes to CBD products “Paul Spectrum” (Full Spectrum CBD) And not just in isolated CBD products (Isolate CBD) for which it is difficult to prove whether or not cannabis is created and therefore sellers can claim to be legal. In fact, these are products that the Ministry of Health considers prohibited substances and sometimes even contain other than CBD and other cannabinoids, also THC or its derivatives in minimally quantities lower than 0.3%.

Canada: Metrc kicks off “pilot” program

Nobody left in the US.. now it’s time for Canada

The Edmonton jnl

A pilot project in Alberta is aiming to transform cannabis product transparency with Metrc’s Retail ID system. By simply scanning a QR code provided at purchase, consumers gain access to lab test results, certificates of analysis (COA), product name, image, cannabinoid, and terpenes, ensuring greater trust in legal cannabis products.

“For the pilot, it’s limited to just one product which is manufactured by Token Naturals and distributed by Plantlife Cannabis. So when consumers scan the QR code, they’ll be taken to a landing page that provides supplemental information on the product,” he said.

The initiative, supported by Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC), Token Naturals, and Plantlife Cannabis, serves as “a proof of concept,” Urbanowicz said.

“We’re in discussions with Token Naturals, Plantlife Cannabis, and AGLC. Our goal is, once we demonstrate the proof of concept, that we’ll be able to expand to additional products, potentially to additional businesses as well,” he said.

Metrc, which has experience deploying the system in the U.S., ensures data accuracy through a structured compliance approach, though noted there’s not the same source of record system in Canada as in the U.S. As part of the pilot, Token Naturals, the local manufacturer located in Edmonton, tests results into their system and generates a QR code. The QR codes and products are then shipped to AGLC’s distribution center, which supplies retailer Plantlife Cannabis. Plantlife then distributes the QR code stickers and business cards to consumers.

And Today’s Mass CCC Drama Is… plot to “take out” O’Brien as punishment for investigating serious allegations of cover-ups, abuse and misconduct within the agency.

I do hope there is a Netflix scriptwriter following his posts – all this would make a perfect update to Parks & Recreation or The Office..

Here’s a taste of the latest episode

 

In shocking development, former Massachusetts CCC Chair Shannon O’Brien alleges State Treasurer Deb Goldberg violated court order in an attempt to keep secret details about a plot within the CCC to “take out” O’Brien as punishment for investigating serious allegations of cover-ups, abuse and misconduct within the agency.

Furthermore, say O’Brien’s lawyers, Goldberg attempted to spread this incorrectly redacted document to the press in an attempt to obfuscate the serious allegations directed at CCC staff (and currently being hidden from the public by way of these risky redactions).

O’Brien, in turn, is asking the court to order the entire document unsealed for pubic review as a sanction for Goldberg violating the court’s specific instructions as to redactions.

“Given the nature of the underlying proceedings, and the asserted bases for Plaintiff’s removal as Chair of the CCC, the Court is, frankly, skeptical that the administrative record itself is likely to contain a significant amount of protected personal information that satisfied the narrow definition of same under SJC Rule 1:24,” said judge Robert B. Gordan (who is specially assigned to the matter) in a prior ruling instructing Goldberg as to how to go about filing the redacted document in question.

Then, in a strong, rebuke to Goldberg, Judge Gordon went on to say, …[T]he Treasurer has not identified, and the Court has not located, any case authority suggesting that an administrative record filed in the context of a review under G.L.c. 249 Section 4 or G.C.c. 30A is subject to the broader strictures of [the Fair Information Practices Act/FIPA], to claims of attorney-client privileges asserted after the subject information was disclosed in an administrative proceeding, or to a privet promised of confidentiality that a governmental agency may have extended to a complaining employee, such as would justify impoundment or redaction of the administrative record on those grounds.”

In turn, Goldberg’s shocking decision to attempt to hide most of the document in question from public view may well draw the ire of the court upon review thereof.

A hearing on the matter has been requested, but not yet scheduled, in Suffolk Superior Court.

’Brien alleges that a group of CCC staff members –attempting to cover up serious allegations of abuse, misconduct and corruption– “took out” O’Brien with pre-textual smears after she attempted to reform the beleaguered regulatory juggernaut.

Goldberg, O’Brien further alleges, is attempting to hide documents related to O’Brien’s suspension (and eventual dismissal) that may show a plot by Nurys Camargo, Shawn Collins, Cedric Sinclair and other CCC personnel to “take out” O’Brien with pretextual allegations of misconduct. Those documents are currently being kept private by Goldberg’s office because of the explosive allegations of misconduct (directed at some of Goldberg’s friends/allies) included therein.
