This has been the most concise answer so far KootneyGirl.
All signs are pointing to failure for these "big pharma players" aka yahoo investors
As you said, they think they can put this herb in a lantern, but we're gonna keep rubbing one out lol
We keep running into this again and again, marihuana doesn't fit, not a round peg, but not exactly square either.
The last one for us was in the end of Dec2013. Back in July we were working out our business plans and the question of tax came up so we thought no problem, can't be worse then Health Canada.
We had to write a letter and then fax it to GST rulings, (oldschool man), giving examples of different scenarios of possible different marihuana transactions that we wanted to know how the federal gov was going to tax. Anyways Dec we hear back that they are passing the buck to the GST healthcare sectors unit, no answers yet, July through Jan and counting, huh, that reminds me of something else...
On another tax note, you can import and export tax free, figure that out, marihuana just doesn't fit.....
