Aphria Welcomes Passage of Bill C-45 in Senate, Ready to Meet Demand for Adult-Use Cannabis in Canada Canada NewsWire LEAMINGTON, ON, June 8, 2018 LEAMINGTON, ON, June 8, 2018 /CNW/ - Aphria Inc. ("Aphria" or the "Company") (TSX: APH and US OTC: APHQF) today provided the following statement in reaction to the passage of Bill C-45, the Cannabis Act, in the Senate of Canada: Vic Neufeld, CEO of Aphria, said, "Today's passage of Bill C-45 through the Senate is a historic milestone towards safe and legal recreational cannabis in Canada. We applaud the government's drive to establish a rational regulatory framework for adult-use cannabis that is designed to protect public health and safety, restrict access to youth, and eliminate the black market. It is a significant day that further cements Canada as the preeminent leader in the global cannabis sector." "While we share the government's goal to create a highly regulated market, we want to ensure that the cannabis industry is well positioned to responsibly meet the needs of Canadians and effectively compete with the black market, which is operating and marketing unbound by ethical or regulatory considerations. To do this, we believe that is critical that licensed producers be allowed to use limited forms of adult focused branding to properly educate Canadians about the differences between illegal and legal products. We also continue to advocate to exempt medicinal cannabis from excise taxes to ensure that it is subject to the same considerations as other medications. We encourage government to consider these changes as Bill C-45 passes through the final stages of legalization." "As Canada moves one step closer to adult-use cannabis legalization, Aphria is well positioned as a global leader in the exciting cannabis market. With growing production capacity, innovative products, R&D expertise as well as talented and experienced people, we are ready to serve the recreational adult use market and meet the needs of Canadians. We look forward to working with government as a long-term partner to continue to position Canada as global success story," added Mr. Neufeld.

unfortunately FFWD have forgotten to send out the invites to the party!! amazed this has not attracted more interest !

Samsung Jumps on Blockchain Bandwagon to Manage Its Supply Chain The world�s biggest maker of smartphones and semiconductors may use the technology behind cryptocurrencies to manage its vast global supply network. Samsung Electronics Co. is considering a blockchain ledger system to keep track of global shipments worth tens of billion of dollars a year, according to Song Kwang-woo, the blockchain chief at Samsung SDS Co., the group�s logistical and information and technology arm. The system could cut shipping costs by 20 percent, according to SDS. While companies around the world have said they�re planning to deploy blockchain technology on everything from cross-border payments to tracking the life-cycle of supermarket chickens, Samsung Group is one of the first global manufacturers to take a serious look at using the distributed ledgers in its operations. SDS is working on the system for Samsung Electronics, the conglomerate�s crown jewel. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-04-15/samsung-jumps-on-blockchain-bandwagon-to-manage-its-supply-chain

Boehner And Trump And Cannabis, Oh My! Big Changes Coming To Legal Marijuana President Trump has confirmed a deal with Colorado Senator Cory Gardner to let Colorado make its own cannabis legalization decisions in exchange for the Senator not holding up Department of Justice nominations. John Boehner joined the advisory board of a marijuana company, despite being anti-legalization when he was Speaker of the House in Congress. Pennsylvania recently said it will allow university hospitals to participate in clinical trials of cannabis. Marijuana industry entrepreneurs are hoping they are on the cusp of a significant national transformation. These are �major breakthroughs� said Acreage Holdings chief executive Kevin Murphy. Acreage is the company Boehner joined, and it has ownership of marijuana growing, processing and retail facilities in eleven states. Trump�s agreement to let Colorado, and presumably other states, decide on their own cannabis laws, goes directly against the actions of his attorney General Jeff Sessions. Sessions had rescinded the Cole memorandum which protected cannabis companies operating legally under their own state regulations from federal prosecution. https://www.forbes.com/sites/julieweed/2018/04/13/boehner-and-trump-and-cannabis-oh-my-big-changes-coming-to-legal-marijuana/#38749d9a4658 For once I'm actually looking forward to a monday morning. Lots of news concerning Aphria, Factom and Yooya late on friday after the Uk markets closed...........why would anyone sell is beyond me !!

Perhaps the bod decided they didn't need too because they knew the news yesterday regarding factom and yooya would do the job for them, and re-rare to a more appropriate market cap. Let us see where we are next week.

News on Yooya, it's alive and kicking. Ffwd have just tweeted, yooya has hired too big heavy weights, one with a track record for taking start ups through to public listings

If anyone is interested in why aphria just jumped 20%, president trump has just intervened. TRump has promised to protect states that have legalized marijuana - difusing months of stand off between Sen. Cory Gardner & the justice department.

FPT Software, one of the largest Vietnamese IT companies, and Factom, a Texas-based blockchain-as-a-service company, have announced a strategic partnership. https://coinjournal.net/fpt-and-factom-announce-global-partnership/

Bank of America recently paid a 17 billion dollar fine due to losing track of the system of mortgages. Factom have the solution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-aFyep2R9I&feature=youtu.be&app=desktop

"Bank of America launches digital mortgage platform" Factom's first of many non disclosure agreement to go public maybe ?? https://www.housingwire.com/articles/43078-bank-of-america-launches-digital-mortgage-platform?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=housingwire

Lorne Abony has just Tweeted: @LorneAbony 42 minutes ago Just finished Factom annual meeting. Wow is that a fantastic company. Incredible progress. That sounds good enough for me !! Has anybody got any ideas on what FFWD are going to spend the APH cash on when we receive it ? If the board still think the share price is too low, perhaps it could be used to fund the share buy back scheme ?

oil has just shot up to $62.30

Wti just broke 61 bucks, and we are still at 15p............madness

looks like a couple of the big sells have found there way over to"Opti" which is nearing it's inflection point as they ramp up the commercial deals. If you like at the timing of the big trades here within a minute, there are buys for the same amount over on Opti. if you look at the Advfn Opti board it's not hard to figure out which big holder of both it is. then again it could just be a massive coincidence Trin still looks good, nothings changed , infact it's getting better and better, so don't quite understand why it has been punished so harshly today.

Test

Don't forget Premier foods is a FTSE100 company same terms as the Sacco's deal on cholesterol, only this time on our Slimbiome product great news

For the price to shoot up on a non RSN tuesday is pretty rare !!...usually it's the opposite, price goes down One respected poster on ADVFN reports he was offered 75p , way over the stated ask price to fill a medium size order. so we can speculate that sentiment is changing and there's not much stock about

Little of topic but Just read the daily mail midas article on Strix I served my engineering apprenticeship there in the early 90's and didn't even know they had floated. I am glad to see they are doing so well. There was only 7 of us in the Toolroom back then in the Isle Of Man making the moulds which produce the plastic mouldings. They had to separate the site into 4 areas because the iom is so small they could not get the labour if they had one large facility. The Mouldings were produced in the north of the island, the assembly was in the south. The engineering and toolroom were in an old cinema building in another town down south and they built a specific head quarters building by the airport. The Midas article touches on the name change from Castletown Thermosats to Strix....what it doesn't say is that the reason they changed the name was due to the Two sons who got left the company by there father had a big falling out. The result was one brother moved to the uk and formed "Otter" controls who is strix's main competitor. even to this day I still find myself turning over kettles in john Lewis etc to see if I can see the Strix owl on the bottom. They really have got the lions share of the market and has done for years. every home has got a kettle right !! I guess most people on here only really care about the spreadsheet and financials, but I will look into buying some of these after the no doubt spike northwards has subdued created by the Midas tip.
