Royal Canadian Air Farce Alum, former Sirius XM radio host of "Conspiracy Queries" and one of Canada's top stand-up comedians, Alan Park is back from a Stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis to talk openly about the link between Cannabis and Cancer that saved his life. Twice dragging himself off of a g…
If the Cannabis Act of Canada, born October 17, 2018 were a human baby, clearly the poor thing suffered in vitro from fetal alcohol syndrome. By its first Christmas, it's already a brain-dead beacon to the world of what NOT to do. Patrick Whyte of www.conspiracyculture.com drops by with news of his turning to Cannabis and how it's helped his life. For quite awhile, Patrick worked at "legal" dispensaries before Canada officially legalized. We catch up on many post-legalization bombs, bringing you perspectives from both sides of the industry. https://patron.podbean.com/greencrushpod - Support Green Crush! Every dollar helps!

It’s hard to talk about the Canadian cannabis scene, and not mention Licensed Producers. Like it or not, they are a huge player. We’ve had a guest from that world before, it’s time again. Aron Cadeau is a Canadian businessman sitting on top of CastleBlack.Com, selling Jamaican grown cannabis to the world. Like so many active types in this field, Aron comes at this effort honestly through its medicinal abilities that aided someone close to him. It is fascinating to have shepherded a company on both sides of Canada’s legal-lies. Aron has insights on many of the players on both sides of the fence. We're also joined today by our new friend from Johannesburg, South Africa - Didier Miguel, who we'll be having back in the new year for a longer interview. He's launching Canna Traveller thanks to the recent decriminalization of Dagga. We continue to connect the dots around the globe as Cannabis re-emerges from wrongful suppression, and its rich history is revealed in nearly every culture on earth. Our resident co-host Paul Hartmann stops in briefly as well. We'll of course have him back in the new year with all kinds of new information. https://patron.podbean.com/greencrushpod - Support Green Crush! Every dollar helps!

Effective October 17, the new Canadian cannabis paradigm of "legal lies" portrays the notion that cannabis is all bad and only bad. You’re not really allowed to promote any positive benefits from cannabis. Our guest, Straight Cannabis reporter and author Amanda Siebert, promotes all kinds of positive benefits from cannabis. She knows its truth as a journalist and now with her new book - The Little Book Of Cannabis - Amanda reveals more of what the government ignores in order to craft legislation without those facts - choosing instead to bury the positives under the colour of law, to the best of their (in)ability.Buy Amanda's new book "The Little Book of Cannabis" now at https://littlebookofcannabis.com/ https://patron.podbean.com/greencrushpod - Support Green Crush!

Countdown to “Legalization”. It twists in my stomach, when I know how horrible it is. A poorly created architecture of nonsensical laws, all predicated upon a lie. Shouldn’t be surprised though – that’s exactly the same way we go to war. For the second time on this show, we are graced with the presence of the fighting Irish – in the form of Vera Twomey. Her daughter Ava no longer drastically suffers, courtesy of her mother’s ability to get cannabis into little Ava’s body. The premise is the problem. It’s how government have been framing the substance, and framing the argument away from any logic. It seems they are getting away with it. All without the needed ‘education’, they have been demanding and promising along with their legalization. Watch Vera confront Ireland’s head of state, while graciously receiving the Person of the Year Award last April.

Never having the opportunity, I don’t know what it’s like to be in command of 75 tons of cannabis. Our guest, Brian O’Dea, does. He was caught with that much and paid a heavy price for it: in a maximum security federal penitentiary in California. Live and in the studio, Brian refreshes us with his perspective on cannabis scene now, of course and a lot of the wild stories and from his early days. One thing is clear: demons are at the governing helm. Official policies are non-watertight baskets of fictions and lies and designed to punish. We dissect the artificial concerns of health and care that are dangled as shiny baubles to prevent us from accessing our birthright.

Always up for knowledge infusion, experts weigh in about the science of plant medicine, its social uses. its upcoming distribution and enforcement, its medicinal applications… And on and on, and this is all coming from one expert - Siobhan McCarthy. Initially using cannabis as her only workable pain relief, Siobhan was able to move beyond the tragedy of a car accident that snuffed out her competitive skating career. 20 years on, she is knowledgeable in multiple fields of this wonderful gift, the plant. Siobhan currently consults and works with CannaReps, Cannalife Botanicals, Fashionably High and Creating Better Days. Decades-long researcher and former UN mole, Sydney White has a new book of poetry for the “politically incontinent”. These musings a result of her take on the criminally unfolding governmental spread about which she’s held lectures for the last 19 years
Across the globe across the map, Australia is laying down some crap. Return guest and crusher Jenny Hallam explains her legal predicament, a result of helping people eliminate pain, for near no cost. The saga this woman has gone through is nowhere near over, and she faces 18 years in prison for nothing more than revealing facts and helping people benefit from them. Please consider donating for legal fees to keep Jenny out of jail!https://www.paypal.me/JennyHallam#ISupportJennyHallam Book-ending the episode is another run through some of the top fallacies in today’s media regarding Cannabis.
Paul Hartmann has too much science in his brain so we needed to help him pull some of it out. Enjoy the results, and use common sense to benefit from it. Emma Boniface was a 14-year-old with the idea of using cannabis for pain relief from scoliosis. Her failed attempts at multiple pharmaceuticals left her in a horrible condition. She’s now a 15-year-old cannabis advocate and her organization - Pot for Teens - was the topic of her speech this morning at an assembly held in a Canadian Parliament building.

All the way up to this many episodes and back to the beginning of the purpose: to give a special thanks that I am still here. Our guest, Joanna Baker a.k.a. Puff Mama – was the first person outside of my immediate family, with whom I shared my terminal diagnosis. Knowing nothing of Cannabis I trusted her help in locating a supply of quality medicine. Purveyor of the ‘Comedy Underground’ on Toronto’s Queen St. East, Joanna has been running a successful room for comedy shows and cannabis lovers for 12 years.

The 15 year veteran shines some light on our rights surrounding the bud. Be sure to go to his website and download some helpful handy guides at brucemargolin.com Oh and there’s a new government in Ontario, so the former Ontario Premier’s ridiculous cannabis distribution system will also not be enjoying a further political career. A small piece of good news.
After a couple weeks off, we return with someone who understands the deep dark history of cannabis - our guest, Shane Pulak, chooses not to keep it a secret. A farmer from a family of farmers, Shane shares much about his indigenous-founded and run Blackfeet Nation cannabis company- to bring cannabis and its relief into his community, thereby leading it away from opioids and addiction. With the uptake in the medical awareness of cannabinoids and advancements, it’s fun to read about the changes in the world – except for Canadian medical doctors who, as soon as recreational cannabis is legal in Canada, want nothing to do with the medical stuff. A-mazing.
Today we are joined by Henah Ji and Ken Proude of The Veterans Channel to discuss their Veteran docu-series about Medical Cannabis. With so many military members suffering from PTSD, Cannabis has proven to be of help where prescription drugs have left members suffering from side effects and addiction. The goal of our guests today is to educate Veterans in North America about the benefits of Cannabis through the stories of those that are using it first hand. Stay tuned to Green Crush for updates on the series release, of which Alan will be a part of.

It’s like taking candy from a baby, but it’s always fun to knock down the brainwashing concept that a life filled with cannabis is a useless one. So it is this episode, speaking with a legendary promoter within the music industry. Over the last 50+ years, our guest John Hartmann has dealt with some of the most iconic and talented musicians ever captured on vinyl, like The Grateful Dead, Jefferson Airplane, Janis Joplin, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Canned Heat, Sonny and Cher, and the King himself Elvis . His plan for music creation in the future is also brilliant and generous. Reminder: synthetic cannabis is terrible. John points out that he had some amazing synth-weed – but that was 50 years ago, not today’s current crap which can and has caused people’s eyes to bleed, among other harsh side effects.

Our guests are professionals at Global Public Affairs. And we just met! Rod Elliot, Senior Vice President, and Alanna Sokic, a Research Analyst out of their Toronto division, have the attention of the ears of some politicians and provide guided expertise through Cannabis Connect for organizations navigating their way through Canada’s legalization and regulation processes. These folks know how to scramble to get a point of order together, to lobby governments, and to have it absorbed into social policy. Luckily for me, their look down the road of Canadian cannabis legalization is not as dark as mine. I hope they prove me wrong across the board. We sure did turn over a lot of questions to get to some good resolution. Visit them online at www.globalpublicaffairs.ca and on Twitter @GPAinsights and @cannabisCNCT
It’s the Green Crush Conspiracy Queries episode number… Comedy! We spend hours and hours weekly talking about really heavy things. So now it’s time to do that with a comedian, a real one, who uses cannabis. Andy Kindler is generous with his insights, as we spend nearly 90 minutes learning and sharing about so many aspects of the Green. Enjoy.

After a long hard day, most people just want to get home and have a couple of cold, stiff, hard drinks. Our guest, Warren Bobrow, knows a lot about that, being a master mixologist. Over time, his focus turned more to infusing beverages with cannabis, and building his empire from that. An author of several books and a constant traveler, Warren, also known as the "Cocktail Whisperer" is a fascinating man to listen to. Plus, in Media Mulch, "critical mass of the critical ass" through the presentation of the new Canadian cannabis laws, is seconded and thirded and so forth, throughout.

Cannabis is as much about art as anything else. Free-thinking people understand that it is a tool and can be helpful in creating a long lasting image. Our guest is the president of King Klone Brand and rock ‘n’ roll album art artist extraordinaire, Ernie Cefalu Ernie rolls out just some of his cognizant thoughtful and important stories of creativity in music, and advertising. Of course we do a quick crush of cannabis news, focussing on the criminality of the British government denying one of their young sons a quality-of-life restoring medication. Dark, dark people, they’ll have to learn sometime. Visit Ernie online at www.kingklonebrand.com and https://pacificeyeandear.com/
Sometimes ‘regular’ people in your life don’t know about the laws that will eventually affect you and them personally. They believe everything is great because cannabis will soon be “legalized“, and so goes the government trope. Marijane Baker, a host and advocate on The 420 Radio Show, joins us to discuss what the future of cannabis will actually look like from both a legal and medicinal perspective. It’s conversations such as this - loaded with canna-aware talking points - that need to take up conscious real estate in our lives. Establishing rights for everyone, as we all have just put behind us decades of punitive cannabis laws. There is no time to further extend the rule against democratic will.

We are also joined by Next Leaf Solutions’ ‘Alex the Chemist, which is a great name for an alchemist, which he most certainly is. Cam’s father suffering from prostate cancer drastically altered Cam’s original career plans, driving him instead to research cannabis for his health. Our spirited discussion detailed political positions on cannabis, its social and ethical values, as well as the science of health.

Followers and fans of cannabis legalization and/or decriminalization are rarely in sync with the ‘police officer mindset’. Our guest today, Dominick Izzo, would completely agree - and he is a non-cannabis using police officer… well, he was a police officer. After witnessing up-close corrupt policing, one of his most powerful conclusions is that no one should be arrested for cannabis possession or consumption. Izzo brings near 20 years of experiential police knowledge, and his best ideas on how to repair the damage it does, to his campaign for the sheriff of Cook County, Illinois.

Legalization, decriminalization and re-criminalization of cannabis laws can get very confusing with all the jurisdictions of the world differing and bickering over what is best. One of the most radical of those law-changing lands, is Portugal. They keep a relatively low profile internationally and it’s often difficult to find out what’s going on there with their drug policies – surprise… They are much more free and supportive than almost anywhere on the planet. Returning guest, Author of the incredibly informative book, “Vitamin Weed”, Dr. Michelle Ross, has recently returned from Portugal to give Green Crush an expert, inside and birdseye view of the differences. These are improvements over Western societies views regarding cannabis, and other “Drugs“. Get Michele's Book and more info on her work at https://www.tryvitaminweed.com/
Saskatchewan is where they groom every one of Canada’s finest Royal Canadian mounted cops, who can create a world of trouble for people using cannabis - simply by choosing to remain ignorant on how that stuff works. Alicia Yashcheshen has personal experience on how the devastation of car accidents and subsequent pain/drug remedies can damage ones physical constitution. Alicia recounts how she dropped into, and later self-rescued from, “allopathic medicinal hell“. These same knowledge tools are available for everyone, who bothers to look for them.

Alan also offers a further personal medical update on his current cancer situation. Completely free of any medicine for several months now, troublesome cancer numbers have recently risen some, and he will take those on solely with the help of the green leaf.
How very often our governments will tell us cannabis is dangerous, is reflected in their seeming policy - denying it to war veterans - because - "it's dangerous". Somehow figuring with their sober minds, that Iraqi or Afghani invasive combat etc., is less dangerous than a plant, that is effective in pain and PTSD reduction, if not elimination. Sgt. Joshua Lee and his wife Julia - a counsellor, and mental health therapist in trauma - relay Josh's story of experiencing much anguish from his post-war, 27 different daily medications. This was a result of his time overseas in the military. Fascinating and insightful, the two founded Veteran's Alliance for Compassionate Access, and they have done their homework - for sure, it's a fascinating listen.

As the future of weed proliferation into Canada and the Province of Ontario goes, it's the West and Alberta's progressive system that seems to be a more realistic answer. A credit to new(ish) Premier, Left wing New Democratic Party leader, Rachel Notley. A lot done in a short time of power. The Sensible party of Ontario prefers the Albertan playbook of solutions, to sensibly address the concerns of Ontario's, already rife with poorly planned and executed Liberal Party's confused and punitive infrastructure - not complete and already requiring repair. Ontario Cannabis Consumer & Retail Alliance's non-profit collaboration of 3 top organizations created the Sensible Party for an optimum future for all affected in Ontario's version of Canada's over arching national plan. Cannabis Trade Alliance of Canada, Cannabis Friendly Business Association and Canadian Association of Medical Cannabis Dispensaries - the OCCRA - represent that collective. Tyler James has banking experience, Lisa Campbell can also help you invest and is currently pushing hard for public lounges and Zoe Brownstone's extensive knowledge and insight is well suited for her activism. Sensible ON seeks to gather data through polling and other means, to best usher in the new paradigm “Sensibly” – and they clearly know their stuff. The conversation energy evoked the word, rollicking, a total blast. Apologies for the late drop on this episode, a multitude of cacophonies both literal and otherwise lead to prevention of regularity. These things happen. No one should get mad.

This episode cultivates a growing interest in a flowering capacity… Too much pun? Sorry, it’s fun. Preaching empowerment of the self by using the plant for health - as is often done on the show - means learning how to grow the plants, and what the plant really is. Not focusing much at all on any restrictive laws (for a change) in your home nation, the point is you do need to grow if you want access to the most trustworthy product. It’s a double guest episode, as Paul Hartmann returns and we hear a few stories with his friend and Mendocino County grower in California, Scott Zeramby of Mendocino Agriculture Products and Dirt Cheap Landscaping and Garden Supply.

A "killing-it" You Tuber legend, Jane Dro, uses cannabis to neutralize the unfortunate effects of Multiple Sclerosis. She is yet another spirit who does not take no for an answer, although encumbered with a serious health issue, and who has found her way to the shining positive. Jane Dro has not only not taken multiple sclerosis lying down, she has transformed herself into a substantial YouTube presenter with a very entertaining and informative channel for Health and Cannabis enthusiasts. If that doesn’t sound like a big deal, consider her 5 year life sentence in a wheelchair – which she no longer requires. Reconditioned by the good green plant, she has run a half marathon, sponsored by the Cannabis industry… and this year will run a full one. You need to know this woman’s inspirational story.

The legendary Barry "Flash" Foy graces us for an exclusive, hour long interview. All through the 1970s until the early 80s, Barry and his fellow smugglers, mostly from South Carolina, were trafficking pirates. Always working under the premise that no one was to be hurt or killed, they worked hard to bring back cannabis from all over the world into the United States. Subject of the Wallstreet Journal bestselling book "JACKPOT: High Times. High Seas. And The Sting That Launched The War On Drugs" - The warning shot was fired from Ronald Reagan and a bunch of supposedly terrible people were tracked down and arrested - people who have paved much of the way towards accessible medical and pain relief for everyone. They paid for this with incarceration. I’m not saying they didn’t have a good time, but they also "did time." Our old pal Paul Hartmann jumps on the line after Barry's interview and tells some smuggling stories of his own. We'll see Paul again on April 10th with a great special guest calling in from California. Stay tuned as always. Subscribe. Share. All that.

Again we update the latest canna news. A March madness that involves no basketball, the latest series of Canadian government contradictions and conundrums. For example, they claim they've done all the possible research, yet claim they have nowhere near enough research available and need to know more. Stupidly, that did not hold them back from drafting punitive archaic legislation nearly a year ago. Avarice at the helm. We leave the strictures of discussing purely medical and recreational advancements from cannabis to focus on the productive and creative abilities of the mind. Chris Griswold teaches improv classes in New York City - and beyond if you care to contact him - he travels to your town - and explains working through his ADHD and anxiety issues, using their inherent qualities as helpful tools rather than limiting binds. Chris - who remains ungreen while teaching, organizes his class around participants/actors after their brief indulgence in the herb. After 20 years teaching without it, he verifies this experiment has opened up to noticeable, successful results.

My latest hospital bone scan and CT scan results: I still have stage 4 terminal cancer! But, it ...isn't - doing, anything? Whatever could be my secret??? Marcus Rummery appears to be a psychonaut, perhaps even a modern day Terence McKenna. He’s even made fun of Terence McKenna so that's a good start. Rummery speaks with the casual comfort of someone who has been doing his otherworldly home work in our conversation about his psychoactive use, enlightenment, and his new book. The book, 'Shamanic Graffiti - 100,000 Years of Drugs, 100 Years of Prohibition' is co-authored by 'futurist', Doctor Tomorrow, aka Shane Ogden. Knowing Marcus as a former fellow comedian, I wanted to explore his situation both mentally and spiritually before and after he wrote the book. He tells us how its revelations have impacted his life. We also discuss what seems a far more sensible means at eliminiating or seriously reducing harder, more addictive substances use. In our usual news round-up, looks like politicians will be in a tizzy if the $2 gram proposed out of Oregan US catches on. Plus, looks like the customer might be hit from behind as huge corporate mergers in cannabis production occur even before most people are familiar with the players.
Today we honor the gifted Dr. Sam Mellace’s new book: The Great Cannabis Conspiracy. One of Sam’s Cannabis Vs.Cancer patients, launches this GCCQ episode into the archive as mindblowing. We eagerly begin a series of convos with the very learned and big hearted cancer victor, Paul Hartmann. Sam touches on so many parallel areas as to what I went through, but he was the one who had to go and get the degrees to prove it! With our guest we talk about many of the researched facts and there are so many, from by-gone eras from where Sam drew a lot of his awareness about how and why cannabis is as healthful as we now know that it is. Unfortunately, a Green Crush recent guest - Australia’s Jenny Hallam - is in even more trouble. Right when we thought they would drop her charges, they’ve added two more. The police are functioning in a rampant manner, in contravention to scientific principles. In other words – you can’t really tell if someone’s high just because they have cannabis in their body. Stop pretending that you can know this. #ISupportJennyHallam
As earlier predicted on this show, the indoctrination about ‘how terrible cannabis is’, is making its claim for the major portion of the consciousness of the citizen. This is intolerable particularly in the light of regular scientific burying of the positive facts, and the appropriation of public funds to tell just that one side of the story. We also spent some time clearing up the fallacy of “only needing CBD“, for health and efficacy. Our guest today - it had to happen eventually… is the CEO of a Licensed Production facility of cannabis in Canada… Nathan Woodworth, of Waterloo’s, James E.Wagner Cultivation. Nathan has parlayed what were serious migraine headaches, and the realization of its fantastic relief, from the cannabis plant, into a flourishing business. Repurposing a old very large facility in the small Ontario town, Nathan is playing ball with the feds and creating a top strain of aeroponic weed maintaining very high cultivation standards for a top shelf excellent product. Though we differ on the issue of dispensaries and their existence, these folks are part of the conversation and need to be held to as high standards as Nathan guarantees his facility operates under.
The science is in on Cannabis, and it’s saying that regarding Cannabis, more science is required. Our special guest Dr. Michele Ross, PhD, from Colorado explains so much so clearly, on how she positioned herself to medically, scientifically and experientially understand the power against illness, that our little green friend posseses. IMPACT Network’s founder and Executive Director Michele Ross focuses her neuroscientist brainstem on the Endocannabinoid Deficiency Foundation - and it becomes the IMPACT Network. Check out Dr.Michele Ross online at https://www.impactcannabis.org/ and look out for her new book Vitamin Weed, soon to be published and released online and in paper copy. Of course we focus on even more typical government chicanery, but also explore the good news about restoring the bees to health, harvesting antibacterial honey, and doing it atop a field of cannabis! Where do I sign up? We close things out with ancient suppressed news of cannabis health advancements, and you will be outraged.
A special forewarning tribute, to the unfortunately unwell, Dr. Sam Mellace ( http://sammellace.com/ ). Happy to have established communication with the author of, “The Great Cannabis Conspiracy” Dr. Sam was felled by a stroke on a flight from Vancouver to Toronto. We didn’t get to visit with him, but his family can rest assured we will cover his book and his legacy, while he begins his rebuild back to full health. In his absence we will take on the issues with Sam’s friend supporter and patient, Paul Hartmann. This episode’s guest is Australia’s Jenny Hallam… who faces some awful prison time if things don’t go her way… I guess she should’ve thought about that before being so criminally minded as to help people at no cost regain their healthful vitality, using a naturally provided easy-access plant. We again scour the scum bucket that is political double dipping and police based profiteering, into the slowly changing world of cannabis access. Too many cops and politicians with their finger in the pie. Don’t let their involvement and attempt at control, influence your decision to use this powerful elixir of life.

Todd Scattini is a three decade veteran of the US military. There he learned more about cannabis than most people learn in their entire lives. Now a civilian, he brings that knowledge to the world with Harvest360 helping people help themselves understand what a powerhouse and miracle substance, this beautiful plant really is. Any sufferers of brain injury will want to know about this. A special thanks to Cannabiz Daily for hooking us up! A vivid reminder of how much involvement the police have in interfering with cannabis consumption, two of the dispensary-raiders made asses of themselves eating confiscated edibles. This triggers the reminder that all officers should be screened for cannabis consumption before and after their shift. Terence McKenna, noted psychonautic researcher, pops his head in for inspiration here and there along the way. We close out the show with more insane conspiratorial ramblings from the long deceased American lunatic, Harry Anslinger.
Today's episode should have been all things Dana Larsen. Instead we chatted for 10 and fought with a bad Skype connection, being forced to rebook him for an upcoming episode. The show must go on, and so it did. Alan mulched through past and present media addressing the surpression of research that goes unpublished and therefore unlearned from. Should evidence from thousands and thousands of global survivors still be considered anecdotal and dismissed? Rick Simpson struggles with crowdfunding his campaign to produce a movie highlighting the benefits of medicinal Cannabis while hiding out in a foreign country to avoid prosecution from the very same government that moves to make the product legal and under their control. Cue the Liquor Control Branch, swaggering in Bronfman-style in their suits and ties to save the day... or not.
What gets larger by the day is the awareness of many, surrounding the powerful magic of an easily obtainable plant. Some people know more than others, and our guest today from https://cannabizdaily.co – Chief Marketing Officer Shaun Dillon, is helping people around the world connect with this information. Following a typical news round up of what’s going on globally with cannabis, we speak with Shaun and get his very informed take on how best to increase your knowledge base on this very helpful product - plant - science. These folks ask you to pepper their inbox with questions and inquiries, they want it all. Closing out on the conspiracy angle – The scientific data points to widespread legalization, yet the legislation keeps pointing us in the opposite direction.
Welcome to Conspiracy Queries with Alan Park – these are the conspiracy queries, I am the Alan Park. At long last, it’s Episode 95. Long lost listeners wondered what happened to me… Stage4 prostate cancer. Fully metastasized, a discount wheelchair, a cane to walk, a certain death. No longer able to do that show - while looking for a way to live. All of those FACTS out there… yet I was told, “there’s nothing else that can be done.” On Conspiracy Queries - I asked questions about situations not fully resolved in my mind. This was the show. But Cancer put serious questions in my mind nowhere near resolved. This was the Life. And I learned the answer – for me and many more… Is in the cancer. The answer, is in C-ancer. C? Like so many problems… The solution was inside the problem. I told ConQ listeners over the couple of years it was on the Internet and later on Sirius XM… that I couldn’t really do it anymore… that I needed a Break… to try using cannabis oil… Thank you Rick Simpson… Still need to talk to him. Thank you good sir. I began to feel better using and learning more about cannabis. The more I realized… we really can’t talk about cannabis without talking conspiracy. Revitalized, Green Crush was created to share this knowledge for others to benefit from, it was actually Conspiracy Queries the whole time, lasered on the topic that saved my life. When the big 3 doors are closed, there’s another. But some people don’t want you walking through, from giving it a try, especially when their degree tells them, you’re going to die. The 4th door to stage 5 has made its case. And so it’s Episode 23 of GreenCrush. And it’s Episode 95 of ConspiracyQueries. On I go, to experience creative and research efforts as two interwoven strands, connected and intertwined. It works for DNA, why not me? You’re listening to... GreenCrush ConspiracyQueries with Alan Park Welcome. And thank you
Looking back on 2017 and what it brought to the cannabis community is the theme of the Green Crush New Year’s 2018 Edition. It doesn’t take long to find our vantage point looking forward, highlighted by some of the new laws and ways in different lands, that will somehow affect us all. Our announced and anticipated guest Cheryl Shuman, CEO and founder of The Beverly Hills Cannabis Club, leaves us in a last-minute lurch, so we do a bit of a profile on her, and what she is trying to accomplish in the newly legalized California. Hopefully, we can confirm her attendance again in the future. Naturally, discussing her bio doesn’t take as long as our interview would have been, but fortunately there is plenty of current cannabis news to fill the void. Happy New Year from the Green Crush crew!

The Christmas episode! The time of year when you have an episode, and it is Christmas. Much like the first Crush episode, Alan recounts his medical reasons for telling his particular story and its remedy. This research is the axis of the show, the reason for its existence. Many of the day’s cannabis related news items are brought to focus, with heavy reminders about the ‘criminality’ - of using a plant to save your own life, of the police inexplicably at the helm of what is being sold as decriminalization, but which is in fact – a legalese-ation. Instead, how about Norway who are eliminating the punishment system in favour of the treatment system. And we gear up for a six-month slide and fight in Canada into an incorrect system being made, which in truth, needs to be corrected or eliminated, while bringing focus to many other cannabis hotspots around the world who have shown us we can do it a lot better.
Episode 22 shimmers with synergy between Episode number 11 and today’s efforts. A twinning-up – DNA binding together as the official story dwindles. Our guest from Kansas, USA, shares his vast knowledg with the less experienced. The founder of Kansans For Hemp, Kelly Rippel trades in sustainable water development and distribution to school kids, as he similarily educates us with his acquired data of hemp and cannabis by coming to the Green Crush (stage) fore. Before that, some year-end thoughts. Lessons of lingering in the outpost at the edge of this/his alleged existence, trigger a reminiscence that fuels a positive, forward thinking mindset. As ever, this expression is designed to both provide comfort to those in a similar place, and an indicator of a well meant life becoming possible, when all other means would take away – thanks again to the plant. A politician says something stupid… this time also really funny. It looks like Canada’s Cannabis recriminalization laws may not come off on time according to plan and promise, if a couple of right-leaning Tory senators have anything to do with it.
Episode 21 holds perhaps an unknown reason of why it is superior to usher in a renewal of focus, away from our own native country Canada. Out of disappointment for the missed opportunities and suppressed democratic impulses, here begins our perceptive journey of awareness into countries other than the disappointingly regressive Canada. Interview with Rhys Cohen, Director of Cannabis Consulting Australia ( http://www.cannabisconsultingaustralia.com.au ) and its educational training program CANN10 ( http://cann10.com.au/ ). Unlike anything to our knowledge in Canada or the United States - so far anyway – CANN10 presents a golden opportunity to enhance one’s own knowledge and awareness of cannabis for the betterment of society – the stark and obvious counterpoint to the official government narrative that… "Nothing good ever comes from marijuana". Plus, more fat cat police double dipping reveals and history on a family who turned a massive profit from illegal alcohol sales in the earlier previous century, and how they have found a way to do the same in an effort to control cannabis and enlarge their Bronfman Family 2.0 Empire.

Episode 20 - A Green Crush turning point… We talk to one of the most prolific cannabis activists Canada has ever seen. Fair enough to say, without the efforts of Jodie Emery and her husband Marc, we may not even be poised to “legalize“ this healthful substance. Getting close to crunch time as far as Canada’s new restrictive, punitive, money-grabbing cannabis laws are concerned, and by that I mean it’s pretty much a done deal despite the facts and official denials. So on today's "Cops or Truth" segment, we soundscape the lies and manipulations from one of Canada’s most important policeman, Toronto chief Mark Saunders. He is taken to task for being full of shit. Henceforth, a turning point for Green Crush as we turn away from the nonsense of Canada to focus on more sensible jurisdictions around the world.
Episode 19 we have a scheduled guest! He works within and around the cannabis industry. He has several fantastic products, some of which are delicious… Some of which involve growing. At the last minute our guest had to cancel, under legal recommendation and/or pressure. Less than 24 hours after Alan told the premier of Ontario face-to-face, that she is going down the wrong track – only to get a ridiculous non-answer… this episode highlights more evidence that the people creating lie-filled laws, cause the majority of people to avoid publicly proffering one of the most powerful health breakthroughs in the history of our species. All of this, a taxpayer funded mission to avoid maximum health potential and a democratically burgeoning economy. This surprise episode of covering several topics – to make up for our missing guest - fingers some of the illegal and suspect activity of our supposed leaders, leading us away, from a democratically preferred health alternative. They subtract facts, add cow pat, and stir – people to think their fiction is the real deal. This must end, or Green Crush might.
Episode 18 Commanding. So far Canada has foot in its mouth and the other in a beartrap of stupidity, regarding its pending legislation proposal designed to further restrict proper cannabis aspect. But it seems other countries around the world might doing it properly. Is Ireland one of them? We’ll see. Irishman Stephen Kelly - representing activist Internet presence, “It Makes Sense“, tells us of Ireland's very difficult relationship with legalizing cannabis – the last presentation of such a bill was roundly mocked, the politician who brought it forth was much criticized for doing so. The newest bill is now working its way through Irish Parliament and so far the signs are good. We will be keeping in touch with the situation. This episode brought to you by an uncomfortably visceral reaction to the suspect timing of making a bid to control much of Canadian cannabis market, by a national Canadian drugstore chain/subsidiary of a major grocery store chain – Shoppers Drug Mart©
17 means building a consensus, it does for Green Crush anyway. We are fortunate to speak with a 20+ year user of cannabis. Has his life ground to a halt? Is he irresponsible and addled in the brain? No, no he’s not. He’s a very successful athlete and businessman who has built an entire career on his relationship with cannabis. Canadian Ross Rebagliati is the world's first ever snowboarder gold-medal Olympian, taking home the gold at Nagano, Japan Winter Games, 1998. While snowboarding was in his blood, apparently so was the substance known as cannabis. This was a very terrible thing according to the authorities. Even though in 1998 cannabis was not on the list of IOC banned athletic substances. But they took his gold away from him anyway. When he got his gold back, he got his future. Ross' Gold is a purveyor of fine cannabis-based products, already up and running in Kelowna, BC, a beautiful part of the world. Ross is a pioneer, and he has been rolling with the truth and shining a light on the darkness, so a Green Crush hat off to him.

I take another stab at last week's opioid news. Detailing the arrest of a massive purveyor of that drug, CEO of INSYS, John Kapoor is seemingly off to jail for trafficking. Might be good news for other demons in the same game. Our guest, Dawn Mcilmoyle is a former member of Canada's Navy and MST survivor. What is MST? Military Sexual Trauma… an American term that Canadian Military sufferers also use. And if they're naming it as a phenomenon, you know it's something that shouldn't be happening. Dawn tells us as much as she can share of her deep trauma in the military, and her long way out of it – using her green friend, cannabis.
Episode 15 centers on the opioid crisis that is ruining countless lives. Everyone has an opinion – everyone has the desperate question, "what is going on?" "what's happening to these people?" "what can we do about it – how did this happen?" We reveal that about all of those concerns, the answer lies before us already. It only takes political awareness and Will to put the responsible criminals in jail, and rehabilitate the people taken prey by one of history's greatest skimSchemeScams. The only crisis regarding opioids is a lack of honesty and political will to address the problem in just one term. With some of the major distributors of these toxic profit pills exposed, we suggest you contact them at your leisure, and ask exactly what they are going to do about it. The government is lying – the revolving door of changing the laws from within the government to then leave and profit from those laws in the private sector, must come to an end. These dark operators are the same people telling us that cannabis is not effective for cancer.
Episode 14 doubles as an an extended version of our Green Crush cannabis-savvy segment "You Can't Spell Legal without Illegal", with an interview with a freelance writer for cannabis-based publications including Leafly, and Lift Cannabis News. Harrison Jordan, will become a fully fledged lawyer in 2018, at Toronto based law firm, Lewin Sagara LLP. Their focus is on matters related to our lovely green friend - (not Alan) the cannabis plant. Harrison enjoys reading and writing about the regulatory and public policy aspects of cannabis in Canada, so if you were looking for that one guy, we found him.
