Host: Casper Leitch - Joint-Host: Al Byrne - Joint-Host and Technical Director: Al Graham - Guest: Owen Smith.
With over two decades of dedication to the cannabis industry, Owen Smith has emerged as one of Canada’s most influential figures in cannabis activism, legal reform, and industry ethics. From his landmark Supreme Court victory to his ongoing work with Cannabis Digest and Ethical Growth Consulting, Smith has played a pivotal role in reshaping the landscape of medical marijuana and cannabis-infused products. His contributions have not only expanded access for patients but have also influenced the evolution of the cannabis industry as a whole.
Smith’s name became widely recognized due to his involvement in a groundbreaking legal case that forever changed Canada’s medical marijuana laws. In 2009, while working as a baker for the Victoria Cannabis Buyers Club (VCBC), he was arrested for producing over 200 cannabis-infused cookies. At the time, Canada’s medical marijuana laws only allowed patients to consume dried cannabis, effectively forcing them to smoke it.
