Eaxactly!!!! Some of those baby boomers have some of the best growing skills I have ever seen. "This is how we got through the 80's" is what some of them have said!What a lot of these investors don't consider is this. Anyone who wants or likes to smoke weed, medical or recreational already does and the largest providers are BM growers. It's not like there will be some magic tap opened up July 1st 2018 and hoards of customers running to buy LP schwagg. The market is already there, some will grow their own, some will use DG's, some will buy from LP's. Most will continue to buy in the BM for better quality and options than what these schwagg producers are offering. Canada is a small market for anything, particularly something like this that has had stigma attached for so many years. Our population is aging, which likely means more use, but from a BM market savvy crowd who have had hook-ups for years. You think they'll go spend $10-$15/g from some LP via snail-mail when they can get better quality for 1/2 that amount? The baby boomers are already starting retirement years, most will likely grow their own just to have something to do in retirement.
Where is this supposed market they're going to cash in on?
Is the export market expected to be that open (soon) that they'll rake cash in that way?
Or are they really all stupid?
When you analyze the numbers published by some of the legal states. The numbers look impressive, but keep in mind there are states that have close to the population of all of Canada! They are also licensing dispensaries, delivering what the people want. A touch & feel environment, see before you buy and all that. Snail mail orders off some web site isn't going to cut it nor explode the relatively small domestic MJ market.
The only saving grace they have is an in to the private club and they've probably already started lobbying provincial governments to allow them to distribute through their own dispensaries/store fronts. But to me that won't be enough to save them.
Boomers are likely the biggest demographic groups for this MJ market in Canada and a growing percentage of the population. But we've been around and most (all that I know) have hook ups already for $100-$150 an ounce, disregard stupid laws like MJ, we're leery of any government and not afraid to push back against "the man". This is a non event for us, it just justifies all the stupid possession charges and harassment we've taken for decades, that's about the only "win" for us. There are of course some that are and always were very conservative and would never buy from a "dealer" but ime it's like 10% of that demographic.Eaxactly!!!!

Very Very well said @GroErr and what I've been saying for 3 years. If they think the masses will flock to the schwagg stores...nope....not enough of them anyway. Trudy misunderstands the resentment and ill will the government has caused the people they are trying to sell to.What a lot of these investors don't consider is this.

Masky flem boy wanted to buy Lp weed.....cause he's a little prancer suck up....remember his law abiding speeches...too funny.......suck it masky and trudy....fuck you both.There are of course some that are and always were very conservative and would never buy from a "dealer" but ime it's like 10% of that demographic.
you touch on a few key important funny points thats for sure!!!What a lot of these investors don't consider is this.
