Business Cann reports.. on what is essentially the unsurprising effect of (and excuse our French) pissing about in this sector.
People want medical cannabis, people want cannabis full stop.
If you muck about and let a few of your mates build a half arsed sector designed to line a few pockets this is what happens.
