For the Culture By The Culture
Health Canada’s recall of Chillows THC pouches exposes a deeper flaw in cannabis regulation: mislabeled potency, weak oversight, and labs chasing numbers over truth. Across North America, inflated THC counts and unreliable testing show how legalization’s promise of accuracy keeps slipping through the cracks. The high might be real, but the numbers are not.
Colorado regulators just banned Midnight Drops after reports linked the cannabis sleep aid to liver injuries. Nuka Enterprises and affiliates were fined $400,000 and booted from the state, but loopholes may allow their return. This is not about the plant. It is about corporate shortcuts, weak oversight, and the way scandals weaponize prohibitionist narratives against cannabis culture.
