From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.For marijuana sellers looking to add finesse to their weed growing skills, a university in Canada has designed a course to bring marijuana dealing to professional standards.
The Kwantlen Polytechnic University in Vancouver is offering a course in marijuana management. Introduction to Professional Management of Marijuana for Medical Purposes in Canada will be available as an online course lasting 14 weeks from this Autumn.
It will be divided into two main learning strands; Marketing Sales and Drug Development, followed by Plant Production and Facility Management.
However, the course is not cheap and will set back marijuana sellers a hefty $1,249.
Students will learn about how to identify healthy plants, manage pests and understand crop cycles, as well understanding legal issues surrounding the controversial drug.
Canada regulated for medical marijuana in 2001. It enables doctors to prescribe the drug to people with severe and debilitating health conditions including, MS, arthritis, epilepsy seizures and nausea connected to HIV/ cancer medication.
