Cannabis Reform Could Get a Major Boost in the U.S. this Year

February 18, 2021 - Baystreet.ca


As legal cannabis goes mainstream, it’s finding its way into a good deal of medical, beauty, and even recreational products. Along the way, it’s revolutionizing the way medical issues are being treated all over the world. Some of the most well-known chemicals are already helping to treat epilepsy, neuropsychiatric disorders, cancer, chronic pain, and anxiety, for example.

Helping even more, Senate Democrats could make cannabis reform a top priority in 2021. “We are committed to working together to put forward and advance comprehensive cannabis reform legislation that will not only turn the page on this sad chapter in American history, but also undo the devastating consequences of these discriminatory policies,” said Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Senate Finance Committee Chairman Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), as quoted by Marijuana Moment.

That Could Help Drive Big Interest in Cannabis Companies

Pure Extracts Technologies Corp.(CSE:PULL)(OTC:PRXTF)(XFRA:A2QJAJ) and Canada House Wellness Group (CSE: CHV), a fully integrated medical cannabis company, just announced they have entered into a Cannabis 2.0 distribution agreement.  Under the terms of the Agreement, Canada House's wholly owned subsidiary, Abba Medix Corp. will distribute Pure Extracts' line of concentrate products through its established provincial distribution channels.

"We've been extremely impressed with the Pure Extracts team and the brand presence they have established, particularly in the western provinces, and are looking forward to supporting their commercialization efforts in a mutually beneficial way," commented Chris Churchill-Smith, Canada House CEO.

Pure Extracts’ CEO, Ben Nikolaevsky, added, "This Agreement allows us to quickly and efficiently get our outstanding line of full spectrum oil vape and edible products to retail buyers across Canada while our Sales Amendment application is being processed by Health Canada."
