This week's discussion is focused on the U.S. election results. Our discussion focuses on what new adult-use and medical cannabis programs means for the industry as a whole, which states are likely to turn next, and what steps that lawmakers and industry professionals can take to assure a smooth opening to these new programs. The episode also explores the impact of COVID-19 on the industry's growth trajectory and what kind of policy reforms we can expect from the newly elected congress.
