Cocain beer and peanuts are real problems for our youth

JacksonRT says:

Do these videos have any positive effects of weed. All bs propaganda by big pharmaceutical companies smh.

Zunamie says:

Weed is now legal here in Canada, and they do have labels on the products 🙂

Flat Earth Reset says:

This paranoia crap is just that crap it was the same crap they pushed back in the 50's when it was made illegal

Ben says:

They do have testing and labeling of THC / CBD content that is the main benefit of buying from a reputable and trusted dispensary. I think most people will be better off with a balanced THC and CBD strain, higher THC isn't always necessarily better. I've also seen cannabis with like 12% CBD and virtually no THC (like under 1%) which doesn't get you traditionally 'high' but does have some effects. These types of strains have huge medical benefits with less side effects.
Also using a vaporizer is healthier (not a 'vape' using processed juices!) compared to combustion.

One thing to watch out for, which may or may not be healthy is a lot of big dispensaries and cannabis stores are using irradiation to supposedly prevent any mold or bacteria from being in their products (which may be good for immune compromised people) sometimes they call this 'cold pasteurization' which I think is misleading.

I continue to hold the CBC in extreme contempt.

Stefan Peffer says:

I think that the fact that they should put the labels of the percentage of the carcinogens would be a huge benefit to all customers, because they can look for their preferred percentage of THC and CBD, especially if they want the benefits of the CBD component to fight the negative affects of anxiety and psychosis yet still have the customers enjoy their HIGH experience, thus also decreasing psychological health risks in return. Do everything to decrease health risks

Every one must know that all the modified ,genetic ,hybrid or gmo seeds are only making you a stoner not a productive person only natural ganja is the real cure of the body and mind

Keith Kovacik says:

From what I saw in this show, the side effects, as far as what younger people experience, is at par with alcohol's side effects. Now that it is legal, there can be more testing done to see what the balance between THC and CBD to make it more useful to people suffering from various ailments, similar to any medication. So someone with schizophrenia can be informed to avoid the types that are heavy on the THC side and to focus more on the CBD content.

gypsy ninjette says:

This vid doesn't touch on all the amazing effects of using CBDs AT ALL. Weed doesn't cause mental disorders either. All propaganda. Thumbs down 👎🏼

king james488 says:

idk how these guys figure people have been able to breed better weed in the last 50 years or so than people have been able to breed in the last 10000 or so… especially considering the modern legal climate makes large-scale selection pretty much impossible. more likely the weed that's been sitting in evidence lockers for 40 years has degraded and was crap to begin with…

Beefy One says:

They commonly have those labels in the states

Neon Baebows says:

You're already started to see this in states with legal weed.

yves Paris says:

Too short clip.
