And
for
the
moment,
the
votes
of
different

have
been

A
A
Okay,
perfect
so
nusoma
and
directed
z,
tazini.
We
are
in
united
states
of
america
in
vermont,
donald
burlington,
hello,.
B
So,
thank
you
very
much
for
having
me
my
name
is
katherine
antley.
I'm
a
community
physician
in
burlington
vermont
been
pretty
active
in
trying
to
educate,
vermonters
and
others
about
the
potential
harms
of
cannabis,
and
we
can
talk
a
little
bit
about
those
those
risks
as
we
go
through
the
show.
If
you
like,.
A
B
I'd
like
to
start
by
just
a
little
ad,
we
have
a
program
coming
up
on
the
8th
and
9th
of
october
here
in
burlington
and
johnson
vermont,
two
programs
back
to
back,
and
it's
for
families
that
are
impacted
by
loved
one's
use,
disorder
or
severe
mental
illness,
and
it's
also,
the
second
part,
is
for
providers
who
are
treating
the
family
members.
So
in
vermont,
we've
had
a
lot
of
focus
on
folks
who
are
suffering
from
use
disorder.
B
D
B
So
this
is
hopefully
we're
bringing
dr
libby
stout
from
colorado
who's.
A
a
well-known
psychiatrist
and
she'll
be
speaking
to
us.
So
anyway,
if
you're
interested
in
coming,
please
register
and-
and
it's
a
sliding
fee,
so
you
can,
you
can
come
for
free
if
you,
if
you
don't
it's
a
10
fee
for
the
for
the
lunch,
so
I
hope
everyone
can
come.
B
So
your
first
question
to
me
was
what
are
the
potential
harms
of
cannabis,
especially
high
thc,
so
I'll
start
with
looking
at
this
is
a
slide
that
was
produced
by
dr
bertham
madras,
and
it's
a
really
lovely
presentation
of
a
study
that
I
think
is
emblematic
of
the
fact
that
high
thc
is
really
an
environmental
risk
factor,
so
the
higher
the
thc,
the
more
people
feel
like
it's
not
harmful
and
the
more
they
use
the
more
the
more
impact
a
community
is
going
to
have
and
what
we
see
that
impact
with
cannabis
is
mental
illness.
B
So
the
what
we
in
amsterdam,
where
the
concentration
is
very
high
and
people
use
a
lot
one
out
of
every
two
first
presentations
of
psychosis,
would
not
have
occurred
if
they
hadn't
been
using
cannabis.
So
that's
a
huge
mental
health
and
and
public
health-
and
you
know
health
care
cost
burden
on
a
community
as
the
concentration
increases
and
the
use
increases
our
our
burden
of
mental
illness
and
addiction
increases.
This
is
very
important.
B
So
if
you
look
at
a
place
like
palmeiro
italy,
which
has
low
potency
and
low
use,
their
impact
of
mental
illness
is
very
low.
So
in
vermont
we
have
a
lot
of
homeless
people.
If
you
have
psychosis,
if
you
have
schizophrenia,
it's
a
very
difficult,
it's
very
challenging
to
find
housing
to
stay
in
housing.
So
if
you
want
to
address,
you
know,
homelessness
and
housing
issue.
Part
of
that
is
decreasing.
B
There's
a
delay
and
then
the
green
line
is
the
increase
in
use,
disorder
and
mental
illness.
So
it's
very
clear:
increased
concentration
of
thc
increase
mental
illness
in
your
community
and
therefore
you
probably
you
will
have
increased
homelessness
and
and
other
burdens
on
your
health
care
system
and
whatnot.
B
E
B
Very
important
because
it's
one
of
the
things
that
they
talk
about
and
they
had
decreased
use
of
high
thc
concentrations,
so
the
mental
illness
is
going
to
go
down.
Your
constant,
your
dependence
addiction
is
going
to
go
down.
Mental
illness
is
going
to
go
doctors,
there
are
other
risk
factors
as
well
cannabis,
hyperemesis
syndrome.
If
we
have
time
we
can,
we
can
now
show
the
video
on
the
cannabis
hyperemesis
syndrome
where
the
drug
itself.
F
F
H
G
G
E
L
Close
to
20
years
that
I
I
suffered
without
having
any
knowledge
of
chs
at
all,
you.
C
E
I
H
There's
people
in
the
medical
industry
and
in
the
marijuana
industry
who
are
potentially
giving
out
advice
to
try
and
deal
with
this
problem
that
could
lead
to
somebody
dying.
I
thought
transparency
was
part
of
the
promise
of
legalized
pot
and
no
one
has
been
transparent.
We
are
not
trying
to
demonize
marijuana.
C
B
So
the
next
slide
is
looking
at.
Why
is
it
that
the
perception
of
harm
goes
down
and
people
people
are
experiencing
worse
adverse
consequences,
so
in
vermont
we're
seeing
more
addiction
we're
seeing
more
mental
illness
associated
with
cannabis,
use
more
suicidality
associated
with
cannabis,
use,
more
cannabis,
hyperemesis
syndrome,
so
vomiting
associated
with
cannabis
use,
and
yet
the
perception
of
harm
of
cannabis
is
going
down.
Why
is
it
that's
paradoxical
you'd
think,
as
the
adverse
consequences
increase,
people
would
would
have
a
higher
have
more
fear
of
the
drug,
so
what's
happening.
B
B
This
is
factually
inaccurate
and
when
you
put
the
slide
up,
you'll
see
on
the
right
hand,
side
of
the
slide,
so
there
you
have
it
now.
There
are
three
studies
and
there
are
more
that
show
that
as
cannabis
use
increase
as
cannabis
shops
increase,
use,
youth
use
rate
will
increase.
We
saw
this
in
california.
B
So
there
have
been
folks
who
have
said,
and
you
know
originally,
they
have
said
that
if
we
legalize
marijuana,
we'll
have
less
opiate
use.
That
study
was
was
done
five
years
ago.
It
was
repeated
exactly
in
stanford,
so
they
did
a
repeat
and
it
showed
exactly
the
opposite
effect.
So
many
of
the
things
that
are
being
put
forward,
as
quote
medical,
are
not
are
not
working
out
in
as
time
goes
on.
We
see
that
so.
For
example,
in
colorado,
opiate
overdose
rates
have
shot
up,
even
though
they
have
a
lot
of
cannabis.
B
So
there's
not
good
evidence
and
in
fact,
if
you
use
cannabis
you're
four
times
as
likely
to
become
addicted
to
opiates,
so
so
there's
a
lot
of
the
things
that
they're
putting
forward
as
as
potentially
helpful,
have
not
have
not
turned
out
to
be
so.
A
Okay,
so
what
are
the
science-based
suggests
by
our
state's
doctors?
Are
these
on
the
labels.
B
B
Now
the
medical,
the
cannabis
control
board
in
vermont
was
tasked
with
putting
labels
on
our
cannabis,
and
those
labels
are
not.
That
label
is
not
so
people
who
buy
cannabis
in
vermont
when
they
look
at
the
at
the
label.
They
do
not
see
psychosis
suicidality,
they
do
not
see
cannabis,
hyperemesis
syndrome
or
vomiting.
B
B
Suicide
attempt
addiction,
so
the
medical
I
mean
the
cannabis
control
board
put
on
their
label
that
it
may
be
habit
forming
so
walking.
My
dog
is
habit
forming
you
know
brushing
my
teeth
is
habit
for
me,
so
good
things
are
habit.
Forming
addiction
is
not
a
good
thing.
It's
it's
destructive.
It's
gotten
in
the
way
of
of
relationships
or
of
of
of
your
profession,
so
we
put
on
the
medical
society,
put
a
suggested
addiction,
straightforward,
impaired,
drivings
and
psychosis
so
vermonters
when
they
buy
their
cannabis
and
they
look
at
the
label.
B
It
won't
say
psychosis,
even
though
that's
a
well
established
result
of
use
of
high
thc
regular
high
thc
cannabis.
It's
important
to
note
that
high
thc
cannabis
is
defined
as
10
to
15
thc,
which
is
almost
not
found
anymore
in
colorado
and
california
and
other
legal
states.
So
this
is
not
what
people
think
of
it's,
not
100,
thc,
it's
still
dangerous
at
10
and
15
percent
cannabis
concentrations.
J
B
Know
that
the
place
from
the
shops,
the
closer
your
kid
lives
to
the
pot
shop,
the
more
likely
they
are
to
use.
We
talked
about
that
and
what
we
also
know
is
that
industry,
if
we
show
this
slide
about
industry
targets,
vulnerable
individuals,
targets
vulnerable
populations.
We
see
that
studies
show
the
increased
distribution
of
dispensaries
and
underprivileged
minorities
and
minority
communities,
and
so
there
are
a
lot
of
studies.
I've
picked
two
of
them
and
you
can
see
them
hopefully,
on
the
screen.
B
One
was
the
finding
of
studies
support
the
hypothesis
that
cannabis
retailers
are
more
likely
to
locate
in
relatively
deprived
neighborhoods,
suggesting
the
need
to
contin.
Consider
you
know
where
a
pot
shop
is
is
located
and
most
deprived
areas
have
increased
likelihood
of
licensed
cannabis.
Shops
have
increased
density
when
compared
to
other
less
deprived
areas.
B
So
what
we
know
is
that
the
cannabis
industry
only
makes
money
80
of
their
product
is
consumed
by
just
20
or
less
so
they're
dependent
on
a
very
small
percentage
of
consumers
to
turn
a
profit
and
those
folks
are
dependent.
So
dependence
is
what
they're
striving
for
and
when
you
put
a
plot
pot
shop
next
to
a
community,
that
community
is
more
likely
to
have
more
users,
more
folks
who
are
dependent
and
then
there's
the
extraction
of
wealth
from
that
community,
usually
to
wall
street,
to
people
who
are
very
wealthy.
B
Usually
men,
usually
whites,
and
and
so
it's
a
unfair
when
you,
when
you
put
pot
shops
near.
B
Areas
that
are
deprived
or
neighborhoods,
then
you
are
extracting
wealth
from
those
neighborhoods
and
and
enriching
other
portions
of
the
community,
which
is
very
unfair,
and
I
think
something
is
important
for
burlington
to
pay
attention
to,
and
this
is
something
we
had
on
this
on
this
on
the
screen
a
little
while
ago,
the
actually
the
department
of
health
studied
what
happened
after
we
legalized
marijuana
and
the
increase
in
use
was
disproportional
in
those
earning
less
than
25
000
a
year
and
those
with
less
than
high
school
education.
B
So
it's
very
important
that
decision
makers
and
burlingtonians
pay
attention
to
this
and
put
some
guard
rails
in
place
so
that
so
that
we
protect
our
vulnerable
populations.
Basically
and
we've
there's
also
a
lot
of
information
that
shows
that
once
you
legalize
marijuana,
your
arrest
in
minority
communities
does
not
go
down.
So
the
aclu
found
that
there
was
no
inc,
no
amelioration
in
the
rate
at
which
minority
folks
were
arrested,
and
there
was
a
study
right
here
at
the
university
of
vermont
who
saw
the
same
thing.
So
this
is
very
important.
A
So
one
quick
question:
so
can
their
monitors
increase
the
distance
between
a
shop
and
their
kids,
and
can
they
have
accurate
health
warnings
and
also
can
the
dangerous
thc
concentrate
be
kept?
What
can
citizens
do.
A
C
F
B
Daycare
or
a
playground
I'll
just
repeat
that
right
now,
according
to
the
rules
that
the
cannabis
control
board
have
put
in
place,
we
can
put
a
legal
pot
shop,
selling
drugs
right
next
door
to
a
playground
right
next
door
to
a
nursery
and
just
500
feet
from
a
school
so
from
first
graders
or
kindergarteners,
or
middle
schoolers
or
high
schoolers
500
feet.
We
all
know
how
long
how
far
that
is
just
a
little
bit
more
than
a
not
very
far,
so
we
can
change
that.
B
We
have
a
local,
I
think
we're
going
to
have
a
local
cannabis
control
board
in
burlington.
We
can
say
you
know
what
we
want
it
farther,
because
we
know
that
the
farther
the
shop
is
from
kids,
the
less
likely
they
are
to
use.
Will
it
be
on
their
walk
to
school?
You
know:
can
we
can
we
prevent
them
from
being
passing
a
pot
shop
as
they
walk
to
school?
B
What
about
advertising
burlington
can
add,
can
make
rules.
That
say
you
know
what
we're
not
going
to
have
any
advertising
that
targets.
Kids,
we're
not
going
to
have
any
advertising,
that's
four
feet
or
less
or
that
a
child
can
understand,
and
another
important
thing
that
that
burlington
can
do
is
to
put
public
health
and
physicians
on
their
cannabis
control
boards.
So
right
now
folks,
it
was
news.
Last
week
the
head
of
the
cannabis
control
commission
in
massachusetts,
who
came
from
the
marijuana
industry,
is
going
into
the
marijuana
industry.
B
J
B
Yourself,
for
example,
or
we
can
have,
we
can
put
in
rules
that
say
if
you
serve
on
the
cannabis
control
board,
you
won't
be
allowed
to
go
into
the
industry
targeting
youth
to
targeting
youth,
creating
more
addiction,
so
that
would
prevent
that
revolving
door
of
lobbyists
going
into
or
of
regulators,
then
going
into
industry.
