3 Marijuana Stocks Canadian Investors Are Talking About

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / August 14, 2018 / This year, Canada is expected to see a big boom come this October with the launch of its adult-use, recreational market. This change comes after the country's Senate passed the Cannabis Act, also known as Bill C-45, and because of it, October will be accompanied by a little more than the usual pumpkin carvings and cavity-inciting endeavors. Investors are on the edge of their seats trying to figure out which industry leaders will come out on top of the market that is set to launch on October 17.

Market analysts have projected that Canada's legalized market could earn somewhere around $10.4 billion dollars once it gets started. Big paydays like this make investments opportunities in this innovative industry all the more exciting. Companies like GTEC Holdings, Ltd, (GTEC)(GGTTF), Canopy Growth (NYSE: CGC; TSX: WEED), and CV Sciences (CVSI) have caught attention during the months leading up to Canada's official launch for recreational retail sales.

GTEC Holdings, Ltd, (GTEC)(GGTTF) signed an LOI with TheraProducts to create a joint venture to develop and commercialize cannabis-based beverages and edibles.

GTEC will contribute its OLEO microencapsulation technology to convert cannabis oils to soluble powder, and TheraProducts will supply equipment and intellectual property.
