RE:BNN Coverage I think we gotta be a little bit more transparent... it's not necessarily a consensus that big tobacco will do anything. Any big major player in pharmaceuticals could potentially buy a small cap company to speed up their entry into the market. Big tobacco may be looking but they wont be making any moves until it is legalized.
Shoppers (loblaws) would be looking at getting into the medicinal and for all the extra benefits of the recreational once it becomes legalized.
Again these moves would be later than sooner. Lot's of possible down and upside, none of these players are doing anything anytime soon.
