Over Wednesday evening and Thursday, there have been a number of incidents involving Cannabis Culture dispensaries, their employees and police. It has yet to be confirmed, but there are strong indications that this may have been a nation wide, strategic counter approach to the Cannabis Culture brand boom.

On Wednesday evening Marc and Jodie Emery were arrested in Toronto Pearson International Airport on their way to Spain for cannabis expo, Spannabis. The charges against the couple have not been released to the public, but presumable it is related to their dispensary business. Jodie and Marc Emery were both held in Toronto jail over night, awaiting their court hearing the following morning. Source.
