First Nations Cannabis: Impact, Operations, and Inherent Rights.

First Nations across Turtle Island (North America) are shaping the ever-changing landscape of the globally emerging cannabis industry, in parallel with the Crown-regulated market here in Canada. What impact has cannabis had on our panelists personally, socially, and economically within their communities? What certifications, systems, and trade practices are they developing? What challenges do they face dealing with the Canadian and American governments? Do they see a future where the Crown-regulated industry and a First Nations cannabis industry, built on the foundations of sovereign and inherent rights, will intersect? Drop your assumptions and join us as we explore the First Nations cannabis landscape. You won’t want to miss it!
