This platform brings a tremendous following that embraces these attributes which are well positioned to excel in BC and California's west coast marketplaces."

Through the Lords of Grasstown's strategic partnerships and alliances in the motorcycle and legal cannabis communities, the initial launch of Grasstown USA into California has been well accepted and recognized. PacRoots and Grasstown are excited to build on the initial momentum and expand the brand and offerings though our alliances in the region.

Tyler Hazelwood of Grasstown comments, "We have created a unique story driven by our love for motorcycles and cannabis with a community that extends throughout the Americas. We are ecstatic to be working with our new partner, PacRoots, and look forward to expanding and developing our reach with the Lords of Grasstown and Grasstown USA Brands. Our partners and followers in the USA and Canada have been incredibly supportive of our products, story and the organization, as we look to further proliferate the brands and the culture throughout North America."

Medicinal Cannabis and Crohn's Disease:

Tyler's passion for cannabis stems from his 20-year battle with Crohn's disease and accredits cannabis for his ability to defy what western medicine said was possible and avoiding major surgical procedures like colon removal.

Founder and Director of Lords of Gastown and Lords of Grasstown, Tyler Hazelwood comments, "Without Cannabis I would not be able to be a dedicated single father to my daughter, nor would I have been able to build these brands or ride my motorcycle across North America. Cannabis is without a doubt my biggest tool in managing Crohn's symptoms. I feel a sense of obligation to share my experiences and passion in hopes I can help others with IBD."

About Lords of Gastown:

Gathering attention and social following across the United States with a good following in California, Lords was invited to the Born Free Motorcycle Show in 2015, Born Free is California's largest and most influential custom motorcycle show and Lords was one of the first Canadian brands to be invited.

Lords of Gastown has established 80-plus wholesale accounts across North America, totalling over 100 worldwide, including Switzerland, Mexico, Australia, Indonesia and Japan.

Australian Senate Rejects Greens' Bill to Legalise Cannabis

The Australian Greens announced on Wednesday, November 27, that the Legalising Cannabis Bill 2023 was defeated in a 13 to 24 vote, preventing the federal legalisation of cannabis.

“The Labor and Coalition parties joined together to try and hold Australia back in the 1950s by blocking this desperately needed reform,” said Greens Senator for New South Wales David Shoebridge.

Shoebridge said on X that the parties “teamed up” to vote against legalizing cannabis in the Senate, “yet another example of the major parties working together to refuse any sort of progress.”

All 11 Greens Senators voted in favour of the Bill, as did Independent Senators Lidia Thorpe and Tammy Tyrrell.
