AGP Executive Report

Last update: 11 hours ago

US Policy & Culture Clash: World No.1 Aryna Sabalenka briefly halted her US Open match after complaining about a strong cannabis smell drifting onto Louis Armstrong Stadium, telling the umpire “Someone is smoking weed” before play resumed and she beat Kamilla Rakhimova 6-3, 6-4. Public Safety & Local Governance: Vermont’s Royalton weighs a ballot move to allow cannabis retail, but residents on the public safety committee push back over fears of “normaliz[ing] drug use.” Regulation Watch (UK): The UK Food Standards Agency has backed the first CBD “novel food” ingredients for sale, paving the way for officially authorized CBD oils, capsules, and even drinks and sweets—if ministers approve. Industry Expansion (US): Curaleaf opened Curaleaf Riverview in Florida, lifting its Florida dispensary count to 77 and total US footprint to 178. Health Research: A global study reports recreational cannabis use is linked to a 37% higher overall stroke risk, with the signal appearing tied to longer-term exposure.
