DEA Pushes Back on Reopening Rescheduling Hearing | TTB Weekly Recap

Washington delivered another twist in cannabis rescheduling this week, and this Trade to Black Weekly Recap, presented by FRE, covers it all. Host Shadd Dales breaks down how opponents are pushing to reopen the DEA hearing after a Government Accountability Office report on missing written procedures, and how the DEA responded in its October 9 filing: no objection to admitting the report, but strong opposition to additional proceedings. Chief Administrative Law Judge Derek Julius gave the government until October 21 to respond, and the stay remains in place. The recap also covers a proposed briefing schedule in the legal challenge to the April medical order, with final briefs set for February 19, 2027.On the business side, reports that Organigram Global (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI) and Aurora Cannabis (NASDAQ: ACB) (TSX: ACB) held merger talks raise questions as Curaleaf (TSX: CURA) (OTCQX: CURLF) pursues Aurora with a hostile bid, with British American Tobacco (NYSE: BTI) (LSE: BATS) holding a stake in Organigram. In Europe, Cronos Group (NASDAQ: CRON) (TSX: CRON) is buying Dutch grower CanAdelaar for €57.5 million, while Village Farms International (NASDAQ: VFF) (TSX: VFF) expands Dutch cultivation through Leli Holland.Also covered: Glass House Brands (NYSE: GLAS) (Cboe Canada: GLAS.A.U) earning GACP certification, Canopy Growth (NASDAQ: CGC) (TSX: WEED) adding EU-GMP certification at Smiths Falls, Tilray Brands (NASDAQ: TLRY) (TSX: TLRY) bringing testing in-house in Portugal, and Green Thumb Industries (CSE: GTII) (OTCQX: GTBIF) outpacing Florida's market growth. The takeaway for investors: the companies that come out strongest may be the ones improving operations while Washington sorts out its timeline.#TradeToBlack #WeeklyRecap #CannabisRescheduling #DEAHearing #Organigram #AuroraCannabis #Curaleaf #EuropeanCannabis #CannabisStocks #CannabisNews #CannabisStocks #MSOSWant to see more Cannabis Reform?🎬    • Why the Judge's Rescheduling Order May Pro...  🎬    • Why the DEA's GAO Response Is Good News fo...  🎬    • Two Tracks Decide Cannabis Rescheduling | ...  🎬    • Governor Healey Says She'll Vote No on Can...  Want to stay updated on Cannabis, Small Cap, AI, and Crypto?Subscribe to our Daily Baked newsletter:https://newsletter.thedalesreport.com...Find us on social media and podcast platforms:✅ Facebook:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Twitter:   / thedalesreport  ✅ Instagram:   / dalesreport  ✅ LinkedIn:   / the-dales-report  Apple Podcasts: https://tinyurl.com/TDRTradetoBlackon...Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/TDRTradeToBlackon...Website: https://thedalesreport.com/For copyright matters, contact:sdales@thedalesreport.comPodcast Disclaimer (Financial Interests)The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of any company, organization, or employer.
