Tuesday:

It was a day spent with all different kinds of green, capping off a well-rounded exploration of the current culture in the cannabis industry and community on the west coast. I started the day off at 7am to drive down for a tour of Tantalus Labs after being invited out by Dan Sutton of Tantalus Labs, alongside Nick Pateras of Lift & Co and Peter Hurley with CFAMM. It was a very educational tour, and optically excellent of course. Afterwards, the team did some hands-on inspection of the first legal dispensaries, with interestingly differentiated outcomes. Price points varied wildly, and nothing seemed to smell as sweet as dispensaries of old. After plenty of time with our favourite plant, the focus of the day shifted towards exploring the best of Stanley Park, which was stunning. It was cool to check it out during the day and walk the trails, as well as at night adventuring along the waterfront with Zoe from Zenabis! At this point, the adventure was almost over, and we were headed back Wednesday to make it home in time for the Cannabis Marketing Summit 2019 at the CN Tower. Overall this was a 10/10 trip, and we’ll definitely be revisiting Vancouver next year for Lift … but hopefully sooner!
