FSD Pharma Inc. (“FSD” or the “Company”) (CSE:HUGE), welcomes the official passing of Bill C-45, the Cannabis Act in Canada.
Bill C-45 formally received Royal Assent Thursday morning in Canada’s Parliament. The bill officially becomes law on October 17, 2018 when retail sales begin, according to an announcement by Canada’s federal government. The law effectively signals the end of 95 years of prohibition on the sale and consumer use of cannabis in Canada, a historic moment for Canadians and the cannabis sector. Canada is the first G7 country to legalize the adult consumer use of cannabis.
“FSD Pharma commends the Canadian Government for its leadership and rational debate on the cannabis issue” said Thomas Fairfull, CEO. “With the public concern being front and center to the debate, Canadians and Canada’s youth will now benefit from a well-regulated system that serves to protect the public from a currently unregulated black market. Canada has demonstrated world leadership in establishing legislation for the production, sale and distribution of medicinal cannabis. The country has now demonstrated further global leadership on the consumer level.”
Mr. Fairfull further commented, “FSD is currently executing its business strategy to produce, sell and distribute high-quality low-cost pharmaceutical-grade cannabis on a national level from the world’s largest indoor hydroponic facility. As we continue to build scale in the achievement of our company mission, we will focus on producing and delivering innovative products to the cannabis sector and to Canadian consumers.”
