Welcome to WeedWeek Canada, the best way to keep up with Canada's green rush.
WWCanada is a Saturday morning newsletter for professionals in the world's largest fully-legal cannabis market. Our goal is to deliver key data and insights in a quick, digestible format.
Every issue of WeedWeekCanada will highlight key developments in political, business and regulatory affairs. Plus, Reporter Jesse Staniforth is incentivized to deliver exclusive scoops.
Like the original
WeedWeek, WWCanada strives
to replicate the separation of business and editorial operations practiced at reputable news organizations. Most importantly,
advertisers have no influence on editorial content.
