Canopy USA will hold all U.S. cannabis investments and, upon approval of the proposal, will have the rights to acquire several U.S. THC businesses. This strategy is expected to position Canopy Growth for profitable growth and a fast start upon federal permissibility of cannabis in the U.S. Shareholders are encouraged to vote before the April 10 deadline and can seek assistance from Laurel Hill Advisory Group if needed.
