SMITHS FALLS, ON, Nov. 8, 2018 /CNW/ - Canopy Growth
Corporation ("Canopy Growth" or the "Company") (TSX: WEED) (NYSE: CGC) today announced that it has entered into a multi-year

forward to working with Brink's to consistently deliver a variety of high-quality cannabis products to our retail locations and
affiliates across the country."

uniquely positioned to provide these solutions," said Doug Pertz, Brink's President and CEO. "Our
partnership with Canopy Growth, the leading producer and exporter of cannabis, diversifies our customer base and leverages BGS'
global network of secure logistics operations. We look forward to building a strong relationship with Canopy Growth as it
grows throughout Canada and continues to enter new international markets."
In addition to providing secure logistics and cash management services, Canopy Growth and Brink's will develop a cross-selling
program that enables Brink's to provide services to Canopy Growth's affiliated growers and retail customers. Canopy
Growth's international transportation and security needs will be provided by Brink's Global Services ("BGS"), a Brink's
