SMITHS FALLS, ON, March 2, 2016 /CNW/ - Tweed Inc., a
subsidiary of Canopy Growth Corporation (TSXV: CGC), wishes to
issue a clarifying release. A recent press release issued by
a company called "Quantum 9" indicates that Tweed endorses its
services. In fact, no member of the Tweed's management team knows
who Quantum 9 is.
In late 2013 a Tweed employee held a brief meeting with Quantum
9. Some years later, that individual penned a personal
recommendation letter.
Tweed is proud of its accomplishments and the reputation it has
built as a leader in the cannabis sector. And we have had the
privilege of teaming up with real world-class leaders as we build
something special.
Tweed has partnered with DNA Genetics, an award-winning
powerhouse of genetics and breeding in the cannabis sphere.
We teamed up with the Canadian AIDS Society to bring education
initiatives to patients seeking answers, and DSG Inc. to build the
backbone of the EQUAL clinical study. We have worked closely with
Indoor Harvest to explore groundbreaking aeroponics
technology. We have incredible research partners at leading
Canadian universities, and most recently we partnered with cannabis
icon Snoop Dogg.
Quantum 9 does not fit into that category and we do not endorse
or recommend their services.
