Will all 105M exercise today? Probably not. Will this go down to .05? Probably not. But do Bid where you feel comfortable, I just don't think this goes below .06, only because INTL isn't selling them below .06
Well this might take a while. Maybe I’ll bid .05
YES! They exercise at .05 105M of them.
They may be diluting but that push from 04's to 09 was sweet when connection got around
lets see how it continues to play out if they slow up on dilution
nothing has changed as they have control over w-s-r-c
Hey Big. Did you leave the door open. Seems as though the board is filling with chicken little's. Were they here when it was 250% lower? Would they not trim some excess off to make the holdings free. Dilution ha ha. :)
Are these just warrants hitting?
That’s pretty funny ??
yea lets see him leave and she can go for much more
Ya man this is the type of diluting that destroys runs
Nice thanks for posting that! found it earlier

GLOBAL HEMP GROUP JOINS THE U.S. HEMP BUILDING ASSOCIATION
Vancouver, BC -- (February 12, 2021) -- GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. (“GHG” or the “Company”) (CSE: GHG / OTC: GBHPF / FRANKFURT: GHG) is pleased to announce that it has become a member of the U.S. Hemp Building Association (“USHBA”). As the Company proceeds with the development of its Colorado Hemp Agro-Industrial Zone (“HAIZ”) the ability to access a resource such as the USHBA and other industry professionals will be of great benefit. The Colorado HAIZ will be developed under the banner of Innovative Hemp Technologies (“IHT”). IHT’s core objective; to develop “green” and “affordable” homes in a Planned Unit Development (“PUD”) utilizing hemp-based construction materials to meet historical pent-up demand in the area, which will include development of large scale irrigation and cultivation of industrial hemp, and the manufacture of hemp-based construction products and textiles. This will significantly expand real estate and existing water rights and infrastructure assets, while generating multiple revenue streams for the Company.
The U.S. Hemp Building Association
The mission of the U.S. Hemp Building Association is to support and advocate for hemp building professionals, hemp building projects and hemp building materials in the United States. Through initiatives that focus on forwarding the acceptance of hemp into building codes, creating educational material, and gathering information about current products, buildings utilizing hemp, and supply chain options, they endeavour to provide the industry the tools it needs to flourish. “Together we can change the world”.
With the world filled with concerns over health and environmental issues, hemp building products provide a solution to both. The use of chemicals in our buildings have increased as we try to improve their fire resistance and thermal performance. This has increased the prevalence of Sick Building Syndrome caused by the exposure to these toxins. Hemp materials can replace the use of these chemical laden products and improve the health of people living in them.
The construction industry has one of the largest carbon footprints of any industry. As the world continues to focus on ways to lower their negative impact on the environment, the construction industry will require an overhaul. Hemp building materials trap carbon absorbed by the plant during the growing process into the building sequestering them for the life of the structure. Houses built using locally sourced hemp that are constructed with hempcrete can be carbon negative. The positive impact of using hemp in building materials is clear, and it is our objective to make it commonly understood.
Jacob Waddell, President of the USHBA stated, “The future will demand improvements in our construction practices to create a sustainable industry. Hemp is our opportunity to improve the health of our families and our world by building smarter. Please join the USHBA in making healthy hemp homes a reality.”

The Company would also like to announce that it has entered into a 6 month marketing and consulting contract with North Equities Corp., ("North Equities") of Toronto. North Equities specializes in various social media platforms, to facilitate greater investor engagement and widespread dissemination of the company's news as well as generating accessible content showcasing Global Hemp Group and its initiatives. Through its marketing capabilities on various social media platforms, its intended purpose is to widen the communication outreach while providing up-to-date information about GHG to a much larger audience. As compensation, the Corporation has issued North Equities 1,000,000 Common Shares at a deemed price of $0.07 CDN per Common Share. All Common Shares issued to North Equities have been placed under a 6 month hold period.

GLOBAL HEMP GROUP COMPLETES DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT TO ACQUIRE CONTROL OVER STRATEGIC WATER INFRASTRUCTURE ASSETS IN COLORADO
Vancouver, BC -- (February 8, 2021) -- GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. (“GHG” or the “Company”) (CSE: GHG / OTC: GBHPF / FRANKFURT: GHG) is pleased to announce that it has signed the Definitive Agreement with Prescient Strategies Group LLC (“PSG”) to acquire all of its Western Sierra Resource Corporation (OTC: WSRC) (“WSRC”) Preferred A Class Share holdings (“WSRC Prefs”) in a private, third party transaction.
Closing of the transaction is expected to be on or about February 9, 2021 upon fulfillment of certain Conditions Precedent, including:
WSRC restructuring certain unsecured debt prior to the issuance of the GHG Prefs;
GHG providing the necessary initial payments to complete the transaction and other Debt Restructuring (completed).
For complete details of the transaction, please refer to the Company’s news release of January 18, 2021. As soon as practicable, each party shall provide all necessary information and documentation to the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”).
The resulting acquisition of these WSRC Prefs will give GHG control over WSRC, and specifically its strategic water infrastructure assets that will be an integral part of the Company’s Colorado Hemp-Agro Industrial Zone (“HAIZ”) project. Documented historical valuations of the 4,000 acre feet of water rights and associated infrastructure are based on 2013 and 2015 MAI appraisals and engineering reports, which collectively support a value of US$40,000,000 or higher. GHG has contracted a third party valuation of this initial assessment value to support such appraisal.

The Colorado HAIZ will be developed under the banner of Innovative Hemp Technologies (“IHT”). IHT’s core objective; to develop “green” and “affordable” homes in a Planned Unit Development (“PUD”) utilizing hemp-based construction materials to meet historical pent-up demand in the area, which will include development of large scale irrigation and cultivation of industrial hemp, and the manufacture of hemp-based construction products and textiles. This will significantly expand the existing water rights and infrastructure assets while generating multiple revenue streams for the Company.
By utilizing a campus setting like that of the HAIZ, the Company will efficiently implement these vertically integrated functions (water, agriculture, processing, housing). Proven industry professionals have been engaged to work alongside IHT’s management in the areas of agriculture, R&D, manufacturing, and construction to achieve the Company’s objectives.
Execution of the HAIZ project will create substantial shareholder value through the incremental introduction of additional (multiple) revenue streams to meet IHT’s objectives and set GHG on a path to become a leader in sustainable hemp-based “green” construction in the United States. The Colorado “HAIZ” will become a “showcase” project to demonstrate “green” hemp construction products and technologies for third-party offtake and for replication in other suitable U.S. markets.
The project will leverage the existing water rights and infrastructure to turn “dry land” farming acreage into irrigated land with valuable water rights that can subsequently be used to develop “affordable housing” and high-value agricultural crops such as industrial hemp. GHG’s vision is to take the hemp grown onsite and replace as much of the conventional building materials used at the project with sustainable, hemp-based building materials used in the housing development. This project contemplates a 25-year build-out. The luxuries of a long-term project with demonstrably high demand are:
a) economies of scale;
b) opportunity to implement learned efficiencies;
c) opportunity to continually fine-tune product offerings through intimate familiarity with a specific market;
d) access to new markets stemming from other by-products of hemp processing, such as fibre and microfibre.
These elements combined with predictably increasing prices and diminishing competition over the project term are likely to result in improved profitability year-over-year.

The parties have agreed to develop the project through Innovative Hemp Technologies-a wholly owned GHG U.S. subsidiary. The resulting alignment of GHG, WSRC and their respective management teams together under one umbrella will result in a stronger and more focused and efficient entity.
As part of the contemplated transaction, GHG is in the process of commissioning updated appraisals on these water assets. Documented historical valuations of the 4,000 acre feet of water rights and associated infrastructure are based on a 2013 and 2015 MAI appraisal and engineering reports, as well as a water law attorney’s comprehensive summary of various historic water rights appraisals and their relationship with land values dated March 2017. All of which support a value of US$40,000,000 or higher. GHG intends to conduct a third party valuation of this initial assessment value to support such appraisal.
Transaction Details:
Prescient Strategies Group LLC currently holds 19,875,000 Series A WSRC Prefs (with Voting Rights of 100 votes per share). On signing of the Definitive Agreement, which is expected to be concluded on or about January 25, 2021, GHG will acquire 11,006,440 unencumbered WSRC Prefs from PSG for 11,006,400 GHG Preferred B shares (“GHG Prefs”) (the “Initial Issuance”), as more fully outlined below.
An additional 8,868,560 WSRC Prefs have been pledged as collateral to secure US$3,842,269 loans to WSRC (the “Loan”). These encumbered WSRC Prefs will also be acquired by GHG upon the restructuring WSRC’s existing debt (the “ WSRC Debt”) by way of, but not limited to, the consolidation, refinance or extension of the existing WSRC Debt (the “WSRC Debt Restructuring”). Further to the WSRC Debt Restructuring, the WSRC Debt will have a maturity of a minimum of three (3) years, with the objective of replacing existing notes and releasing the WSRC Prefs as collateral.
As part of the contemplated transaction, GHG will issue 10,000,000 common share purchase warrants to PSG (the “GHG Warrants”). The GHG Warrants will be exercisable for a period of five (5) years at a price per GHG Warrants of CAD$0.05 per share.

The GHG Prefs will be non-voting, will pay an annual dividend of US$0.01 per share, paid in cash or shares at the option of the holder, and will be convertible into two (2) common shares of GHG for every GHG Pref held by each holder thereof.
The GHG Prefs will be secured by the WSRC Prefs. The GHG Prefs are redeemable by GHG at face value plus any accrued and unpaid dividends any time after the refinancing of the WSRC Debt and the term of the WSRC Debt has been extended to a period of at least three (3) years.
Should PSG decide to sell its GHG Prefs in a private third party transaction, GHG will be granted a thirty day Right of First Refusal (the ‘’GHG ROFR’’) to match any bona fide offer by a third-party, before PSG can act on such third-party offer.
Conditions Precedent to signing the Definitive Agreement:
The Parties completing final due diligence on or before January 25, 2021;
WSRC restructuring certain unsecured debt prior to the issuance of the GHG Prefs;
GHG committing to provide the necessary initial payments to complete the transaction and other Debt Restructuring.

As soon as practicable each party shall provide all necessary information and documentation to permit an application to the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) for approval of the Transaction, if required.
Curt Huber, President of GHG stated, “This is a project that we have envisioned for a number of years. Sustainable green construction is an important cornerstone of this vision.

$GBHPF Is Showing A Pulse...NEWS....
Global Hemp Group Forms Exclusive Strategic Partnership to Create a Sustainable Economic Zone in Northwest Colorado
Vancouver, BC -- (September 16, 2020) -- GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. (“GHG” or the “Company”) (CSE: GHG / OTC: GBHPF / FRANKFURT: GHG) is pleased to announce that the Company has entered into agreement to form an Exclusive Strategic Partnership to create a Sustainable Economic Zone in northwest Colorado with Western Sierra Resource Corporation (“WSRC”) (OTC: WSRC). The Economic Zone will be vertically integrated and will generate multiple revenue streams for this 50/50 Partnership.
The Partnership will benefit from WSRC’s extensive existing water infrastructure, that has been diligently developed over the last 15 years and currently valued at over US$40mil. The availability of these water resources is a key resource in developing this project and creating multiple revenue streams from its three operational segments – hemp cultivation, processing and sustainable construction.
The Partnership will also seek to grow through a series of acquisitions and accumulate long term real estate assets and look to further enhance their value through the expansion of water infrastructure. Significant job creation will be an addition benefit to the region. The project will maximize the beneficial use of the water through all aspects of the Sustainable Economic Zone.
Components of this zone will include; industrial hemp cultivation, primary processing, creation of hemp value-added products produced in a centralized area adjacent to the farming areas known as a Hemp Agro-Industrial Zone (HAIZ), and utilization of these value-added products in sustainable construction, with a special emphasis on affordable and environmentally friendly housing.
The hemp cultivation will focus on the production of hurd and fiber, which will be processed into value-added products in the HAIZ. Initially the HAIZ will focus on building materials that will then be used in the construction of affordable housing in Colorado. A by-product of the processing step is hemp fiber, which can be processed into additional value-added products or sold directly to the marketplace as an additional source of revenue.
Through partnerships, joint ventures, and acquisitions, the Strategic Partnership will collaborate to build an industrial complex to fully and judiciously utilize 100% of the hemp plant with a strategic portfolio of forward-thinking companies that also believe in the disruptive potential of industrial hemp. This collaboration will form the basis of the HAIZ.
Curt Huber, President of Global Hemp stated, “Since Global Hemp’s inception, the Company’s vision has always been about sustainability and collaboration, with a focus on the development of the industrial aspects of the hemp. The multiple applications of the hemp plant, notably in the building industry, will become the most significant over time. This project combines all of the Company’s values into one project. We are looking forward to working with the Western Sierra team in the development of this project.”
Final definitive agreements and budgets for the project will be concluded over the next 60 days. The Company’s initial funding commitment over the next 30 days is US$25,000.

News Global Hemp Group - Harvest Underway at its Scio Oregon Hemp Farm
Friday, October 11, 2019 6:30 AM
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 11, 2019 / GLOBAL HEMP GROUP INC. ("GHG" or the "Company") (CSE:GHG)(OTCPK:GBHPF)(FRANKFURT:GHG) is pleased to announce the 2019 harvest at its joint venture CBD hemp farm in Scio, Oregon is underway.
Pre-harvest testing for the Oregon Department of Agriculture on the current hemp crop was recently conducted at the farm. Covered Bridge Acres Ltd. ("CBA"), the JV's operating company has now received the final results of these tests, and just as last year, this year's hemp crop has compliant THC levels. Once CBA received these results, they began a selective harvest of buds concurrently with the general harvest for extraction to be completed over the next two weeks.
Strains chosen for this year's outdoor crop are low in THC and are expected to produce CBD levels near 20%. Similar strains are now being grown in the greenhouses for the fall harvest program.
Greenhouse Operations
The Company is now expanding its growing operations to include year-round production from its greenhouses. The Scio team has now populated the first greenhouse (approx. 3,000 sq ft) for a fall harvest. It is expected that expansion into the adjacent greenhouse, one of similar size, will occur over the next 2 weeks. While the remaining larger greenhouses are presently being utilized for processing the current harvest of the outdoor crop, once complete, cultivation will expand into all of the greenhouses on the farm. Post-harvest, an additional 4,000 sq ft greenhouse will be installed to increase the available indoor growing area. Management is currently evaluating greenhouse expansion plans in order to generate a year-round revenue stream for the Company.

UPDATE: Five reasons to buy cannabis stocks after a punishing rout
Today 4:33 AM ET (MarketWatch)
Share
Print
By Michael Brush, MarketWatch
There's potential good news ahead, which could quickly change sentiment in the marijuana industry
Cannabis stocks have sent investors on a wild ride in the past year.
Shares in the burgeoning industry had halved by the end of August compared with a year earlier, when they were pushed higher by bullish sentiment. Canopy Growth (WEED.T) and Tilray (TLRY), two bellwethers, had plummeted even more -- by 54% and 64%, respectively. The popular ETFMG Alternative Harvest exchange traded fund (MJ) had fallen 45%.
But cannabis investors, take heart. Cannabis stocks are about to get higher valuations. That's because the selling became so extreme last month, marijuana stocks hit capitulation lows Aug. 28, the Bear Traps Report's (https://www.thebeartrapsreport.com) Larry McDonald wrote on that day.
He suggested investors take opening, one-third positions in the ETFMG Alternative Harvest ETF as a contrarian bet on the group. McDonald made a good call, even if he stopped short of saying go all in. Since then, cannabis stocks have rallied nicely.
But they have more to go. Capitulation lows are blow-off events in which most of the losers and weak hands finally throw in the towel. As such, they can punctuate a bottom by clearing the negativity, and serve as the starting point for a sentiment reset. All the bad news -- and there is plenty of it -- seems to be priced in. Yet several catalysts loom. They will continue to fire up sentiment.
Cannabis stocks do not have the insider buying I normally like to have on my side, but they're disliked enough to give them the out-of-favor contrarian profile I like to see to put names in my stock letter, Brush Up on Stocks (http://www.uponstocks.com).
Here's a look at what's gone wrong -- and what could go right -- to continue driving marijuana stocks higher, even if it won't be straight up.
Catalyst No. 1: Branded edibles begin to take off in Canada
A big knock on cannabis companies is that weed is a boring commodity, much like corn or wheat. This is such a common gripe, it's a mere cliché by now. But publicly traded cannabis suppliers do need to break out of commodity jail. To do so, they have to learn how to be to marijuana what Coca-Cola (KO) and Pepsi (PEP) are to sugar water. They have to develop powerful brands in higher-margin derivative products such as edibles, vapes and drinks that consumers love.
They're about to get their first big shot on goal in Canada, which has been paving new ground in legalized cannabis.
Until recently, Canada had only approved the sale of bud, oils (tinctures) and gel caps. Now that's changed. Canada recently cleared the way for legal edible products, vapes and cannabis drinks. They will start hitting the shelves in December. This development -- and the buildup to it between now and then -- will generate a lot of buzz among cannabis investors, and shift the sentiment needle back toward bullish. That will push cannabis stocks higher between now and year-end, and beyond.
"We will see a slew of new products hitting the market," says Korey Bauer, portfolio manager of the Cannabis Growth Fund . "We think this is going to be massive for these companies."
"I'm personally really excited about edibles legalization in Canada," says Motley Fool investment analyst Emily Flippen, who studies the cannabis space. She says it will give companies the chance to sell higher-margin products, and shake off their commodity status. The edibles and vape breakthrough will also broaden the appeal of cannabis among consumers.
To understand why, consider how popular these products are in the U.S. market. Derivative cannabis products -- as opposed to plain old bud -- account for roughly 60% of sales in the legal U.S. markets and a disproportionate percentage of growth, says Stifel analyst W. Andrew Carter.
In a follow up column on cannabis names, I'll present the companies most likely to benefit from the changes in Canada and the all-important brand development opportunity coming down the tracks as a result.
Catalyst No. 2: Trump (potentially) comes to the rescue
Political analysts claim to be unsure about President Donald Trump's views on cannabis. But there are plenty of signs that Trump doesn't have the typical New Yorker's "live and let live" outlook. He hired (and then fired) an attorney general who vowed to enforce federal prohibition of cannabis. Surgeon General Jerome Adams just published a scathing report on the very real health risks of weed, which I have also written about (http://www.marketwatch.com/story/marijuana-investors-are-forgetting-about-legal-risks-faced-by-cannabis-companies-2019-04-23). Trump himself is donating part of his salary, about $100,000, to fund a media campaign on marijuana risks.
At the same time, though, Trump loves being president. So he is going to do what it takes to stay in office. That may mean a quick reversal on marijuana. Democratic presidential candidates are tripping over themselves to endorse progressive views on weed legalization. It would be just like Trump to undercut them by deciding to work toward legalization, or endorse states rights on the issue. Such a high-profile tactical move by our teetotaler president would boost sentiment on cannabis stocks, driving them higher.
Catalyst No. 3: Companies get more venues to sell their wares
Marijuana smokers love their bud tenders. "People really like to go to stores and see the product and talk about what it does," says Bauer at the Cannabis Growth mutual fund. "It is crucial for these stores to educate people on what they are buying."
In other words, the number of stores is key to sales, and it turns out there aren't enough of them in Canada. But that will soon change. Canada has recently conducted lotteries to license stores to developers. "The store shortage is going to be corrected," says Bauer. "We think this is going to be absolutely huge in the next 24 months. As more stores roll out, this will be a tail wind for licensed producers."
The Canadian market is the key piece of the puzzle here because virtually all of the publicly traded cannabis suppliers are based in Canada, selling into that market. They are loathe to sell in U.S. markets since that would violate U.S. law, which could get them kicked off their stock exchanges.
Catalyst No. 4: Less Sturm und Drang for the industry
A big reason why marijuana stocks have been weak is the perfect storm of disasters that hit this summer. It's been enough to put the enthusiasm of the most ardent bull in couch lock -- and that's exactly what happened.
-- The supplier CannTrust was caught growing in illegal labs. That helped push the stock down to $2 from $12 a year ago. A lot of investor wealth and enthusiasm got burned in the process. "It really shook confidence in the sector because they were considered safe and vetted," says Todd Harrison, the chief investment officer at CB1 Capital, which invests in the industry.
-- Suppliers Canopy Growth, Tilray and HEXO (HEXO.T) all reported lousy quarterly results. So did Charlotte's Web , which sells cannabidiol (CBD) for purported medical use.
-- Canopy's board kicked out CEO and marijuana-sector apostle Bruce Linton in a surprise move that shook a lot of investors.
-- Quebec announced tight restrictions on edibles based on concerns they might appeal too much to children.
In short, investors got rattled. That's a bunch of bad stuff at once, and in a kind of mean reversion to the norm, a stretch of time without a lot of disasters will heal the wounds, and boost sentiment toward the group.
Catalyst No. 5: Investors get clarity on the regulatory front
The cannabis sector is a regulatory briar patch. In the U.S., the drug is illegal at the federal level but increasingly legal among states. The FDA discourages CBD-infused products, yet they continue to be readily sold and openly promoted on Facebook (FB) and Twitter (TWTR), complete with exaggerated and false claims of medical efficacy. Canada legalized derivative products, but Quebec said "not so fast" to sweets that would appeal to children.
Progress toward regulatory clarity in any of these areas will reassure investors and boost enthusiasm toward cannabis stocks.
In the U.S., a proposed Secure and Fair Enforcement (SAFE) Banking Act would let banks legally get involved in the sector. A proposed Strengthening the Tenth Amendment Through Entrusting States (STATES) Act would recognize the legalization of cannabis in states. No one expects those bills to be approved soon. "But as long as they are moving in the right direction, the market will see this as a positive catalyst," says Bauer.
As for Quebec, Flippen at the Motley Fool thinks the province might not harsh on sweetened edibles as much as a lot of investors believe. "I think it is all going to come down to packaging," she says. "Quebec may allow edibles that are sweet, but packaged in way that does not appeal to children."
Then there's the Big Lebowski of breakthroughs in weed regulation -- legalization at the federal level.
"It's not a matter of if, but when, the federal government legalizes," says Flippen. Former Republican House Speaker John Boehner, who is on the board of the cannabis company Acreage Holdings , "continues to say that representatives are coming around to legalization," says Flippen. He sees legalization or decriminalization on the federal level by 2020 or 2021.
Progress here would really light up the group.
