Sonny0701I understand your point. I don't see harm with a Canadian conglomerate being a partner. Now only is Shoppers Drug Mart part of a distribution channel but I am certain that Loblaws possess lots of international sleeping partners but it would be nice to have a strong Canadian company as a partner.
Look at what happened to Canopy with their investment partner Constellation Brand 9with their warrants) is the major shareholder of the titan cannabis company - Canopy. They used their votes to FIRE Bruce Linton. Technically speaking Canopy is an American owned Canadian company (if you get my drift).
Aurora on then other hand is seeking multiple investment partners. Announcements should happen before end of year.
I still hold that Loblaws, with certainty, participate in the cannabis industry and Harvest One, based on already announced joint ventures/partnerships is the crown Prince.
