Government of Canada investing $24 million to establish cannabis and brain health research consortium
In 2025, more than one in three Canadian adults reported having used cannabis, which was legalized for non-medical use in Canada in 2018.
While many people use cannabis without experiencing serious adverse effects, important questions remain about its impact on brain health at different stages of life, particularly for youth, pregnant people, frequent users and people at increased risk of mental health harms.

New York to Allow Weed Sales at Farmers Markets, Giving Small Growers a Fighting Chance
New York has expanded access to Cannabis Showcase Events, giving licensed microbusinesses more ways to participate in temporary markets and reach consumers beyond traditional dispensaries. The change creates new opportunities for small operators, although events remain tightly regulated and growers still face the broader challenges of cost, competition, and compliance.

This cannabinoid supplement boosted sleep quality, eased insomnia!
The CS was an oral soft gel that contained 3 mg Δ9-tetrahydrocannabinol, 6 mg cannabinol, 10 mg cannabidiol, and 90 mg of a proprietary food-grade terpene blend.
Compared to the placebo, the cannabinoid supplement significantly improved:
Sleep quality and efficiency (how well people slept).
Insomnia symptoms (fewer sleep problems).
Overall health and quality of life.
Anxiety improved significantly for the cannabinoid group.

Cannabis is growing up. The industry needs to grow with it.
When people think about the cannabis industry, the conversation usually starts with CBD and THC.
Appearing in everything from tinctures and capsules to skincare and beverages, these two compounds have dominated the plant-based wellness space.
The early CBD and THC boom is facing new pressures.
Regulations are tightening, consumers are more informed and the broader wellness market is evolving.

Bamboo can grow up to 91 cm (about 35 inches) in a single day, making certain species the fastest-growing plants on Earth according to Guinness World Records. Hemp yields up to 250% more fiber than cotton while requiring significantly less water—often 50–90% less, depending on conditions and studies (e.g., around 2,000–5,000 liters per kg of fiber for hemp vs. 10,000+ liters for cotton).
Both plants have deep historical roots, cultivated for thousands of years across civilizations: hemp dates back over 10,000 years (with evidence of fiber use as far as 50,000 years ago), serving as a source of textiles, paper, rope, food, and medicine in ancient China, India, Europe, and beyond. Bamboo has similarly ancient uses in Asia for construction, tools, and daily life.
Today, bamboo is increasingly used in construction as a sustainable alternative to steel and concrete in applications like reinforced composites, scaffolding, beams, and low-rise structures—thanks to its high strength-to-weight ratio and renewability (though it doesn't fully replace them in heavy-duty or large-scale projects due to variability and engineering limits).
Hemp's versatility shines in modern innovations: it produces bioplastics (stronger and biodegradable alternatives), biofuels (ethanol or biodiesel from stalks/seeds), paper (higher yield than trees with less environmental impact), insulation (hempcrete for eco-friendly buildings), and even battery components (hemp-derived carbon for supercapacitors that rival graphene in performance but at lower cost).
These two ancient, rapidly renewable plants offer powerful tools for reducing reliance on resource-intensive industries that harm the planet—yet their full potential remains under-discussed and under-scaled compared to conventional materials. With growing investment and innovation, they could play a much larger role in sustainable futures.

After Iraq, a Marine veteran found recovery through cannabis but what does the science say?
Marine veteran says cannabis helped change his life after PTSD and alcohol struggles
WMAR - Baltimore,
CARROLL COUNTY, Md. — For Marine Corps veteran Rick Glass, coming home from war brought a different kind of battle.
After Iraq, a Marine veteran found recovery through cannabis
Glass served in the Marines from 2001 to 2005, including two deployments to Iraq.
He says his struggles with alcohol began before his military service, but after returning home, his drinking changed.
“After I got back from my two deployments, I noticed my drinking looked a lot different.
The volume increased, drinking a lot more by myself. I started really noticing the negative impact on my life,” Glass said.
Glass says cannabis became an important part of his personal recovery.
He has now gone more than nine years without alcohol.

Archaeologists have uncovered evidence that cannabis was present in William Shakespeare's immediate surroundings over 400 years ago: residue traces of the substance were detected on clay pipe fragments excavated from his garden in Stratford-upon-Avon.
Researchers employed gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, a advanced forensic technique, to examine 24 pipe fragments from the early 17th century, some directly sourced from Shakespeare's property.
The analysis found indications of cannabis on eight fragments, with four specifically linked to the playwright's garden. While the results suggest cannabis use in that era and location, they do not conclusively prove Shakespeare himself smoked it, the pipes could have belonged to visitors, servants, or others on the premises.
Adding to the intrigue, pipes from nearby areas showed traces of Peruvian cocaine (likely from coca leaves), alongside nicotine from tobacco, pointing to a surprisingly broad range of plant-based substances being experimented with in Elizabethan and Jacobean England.
These discoveries have reignited speculation about possible influences on Shakespeare's writing, particularly in Sonnet 76, where he refers to "invention in a noted weed" and "compounds strange." Some interpret "noted weed" as a clever allusion to cannabis (with "weed" as a term for the plant and "invention" hinting at creative inspiration), while "compounds strange" might nod to exotic or mind-altering substances. Traditional literary scholars often view these phrases as metaphors for poetic style, fashion ("weeds" meaning garments), or rhetorical devices rather than drug references.
Skeptics emphasize that the evidence remains suggestive rather than definitive, and there's no direct proof tying the residues to Shakespeare personally. Nonetheless, the findings highlight how the creative and cultural world of the early 1600s may have involved far more diverse botanical explorations, and perhaps altered states, than conventional histories typically acknowledge.
