Brigadier Gold (TSXV: $BRG_H.V) Announces Retention of #Cannabis Consultant; #420Day



Brigadier Gold (TSXV: $BRG_H.V) Announces Retention of #Cannabis Consultant; #420Day



TORONTO - April 20, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Brigadier Gold Limited ("Brigadier" or the "Corporation") (TSXV: BRG-H.V) is pleased to announce that it has retained the services of Mr. Shlomo Booklin of Oakville, Ontario to advise the company regarding opportunities in the cannabis cultivation industry in Colombia. Mr. Booklin has been involved in the horticulture business in Israel, Europe as well as Canada and Colombia for the last 30 years. Since 2014, Mr. Booklin has worked with a number of the largest cannabis L.P.s in Canada, namely Tilray, MedReleaf, Green Pharma and others, where he worked as a master grower, assisted in maximising production as well as sharing the “know how” involved in growing successfully on a commercial scale, while complying with Health Canada regulations.


Mr. Booklin has also been working closely with the leading medicinal cannabis growers, researchers & scientists in Israel, to produce exclusive specific medicinal strains. For the last 12 months Mr. Booklin has been consulting with various cannabis licence applicants in Colombia's rapidly growing cannabis business

The surge of news regarding the entry of large cannabis companies such as Pharmacielo, Khiron and more recently Scythian Biosciences Corp. into the Colombia market supports the belief that Colombia is one of the very best jurisdictions to grow cannabis at a very low cost.
Mr. Booklin's experience working with profitable large scale commercial operations, and his unique familiarity with the Cannabis industry in Canada and Colombia will assist Brigadier in evaluating opportunities which the Corporation is currently exploring.

While a review of potential acquisitions and transactions within the cannabis sector in Colombia is ongoing, there can be no assurance that any transaction within this sector will be consummated or will receive the required regulatory or shareholder approvals.
For further information, please contact Grant Hall, President and CEO at (520) 668-4101.
Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

VICE News - Sen. Chuck Schumer to introduce bill to "decriminalize" marijuana


VICE News - Sen. Chuck Schumer to introduce bill to "decriminalize" marijuana

April 20, 2018 (Investorideas.com Newswire) The Minority Leader of the Senate is making it official the day before 4/20: He's down with legal weed.
In an exclusive interview with VICE News, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) confirmed he is putting his name on legislation that he said is aimed at "decriminalizing" marijuana at the federal level.


For Schumer, this is a shift. While he has backed medical marijuana and the rights of states to experiment with legal sales of pot, what he is proposing is a seismic shift in federal drug policy.
"Ultimately, it's the right thing to do. Freedom. If smoking marijuana doesn't hurt anybody else, why shouldn't we allow people to do it and not make it criminal?" Schumer said.
The legislation, which his office expects will be released within the next week, has six main points. First, it would remove marijuana from Drug Enforcement Administration's list of controlled substances, which would end federal prohibition and leave it up to states to decide how to regulate the drug. Schumer stopped short of calling it legalization, but de-scheduling would essentially make marijuana legal at the federal level.
The legislation, which his office expects will be released within the next week, has six main points. First, it would remove marijuana from Drug Enforcement Administration's list of controlled substances, which would end federal prohibition and leave it up to states to decide how to regulate the drug.
It also would create some funding for minority and women-owned marijuana businesses, provide money for research into overall effects of marijuana and it's specific effect on driving impairment. And lastly, it would "maintain federal authority to regulate marijuana advertising in the same way it does alcohol and tobacco," which Schumer said is to make sure marijuana businesses aren't targeting children with their ads.
Schumer went further saying that he would support legalization in his home state of New York as well as any other state that wants to move in that direction. "My personal view is legalization is just fine," he said. "The best thing to do is let each state decide on its own."
While this looks like an obvious election year-play, Schumer claimed it wasn't about he looming 2018 or 2020 elections.
"I'm doing it because I think it's the right thing to do. I've seen too many people's lives ruined by the criminalization," he said. "If we benefit, so be it. But that's not my motivation."
When asked if he had ever smoked weed before, Schumer said no, but when pressed on whether he might be willing to try it he said, "Maybe, I'm a little old, but who knows?"
The full interview will air April 19, 2018 at 7:30 on VICE News Tonight on HBO.
