3 Marijuana Stocks To Watch Ahead Of Canadian Legalization

[ACCESSWIRE]

CORAL GABLES, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 1, 2018 / All eyes are on Canada as the country readies for legalizationof recreational cannabis this month. Canada is only the second country to legalize recreational marijuana on a national level after Uruguay. The upcoming change has triggered an investment boom and increased the valuations of Canada's marijuana producers.

Many are participating in a first-moveradvantage as both recreational and medical cannabis gain more interest from both the U.S. to Germany. Canada's industry will also act as the guinea pig of sorts for other governments across the world who have also shown progress in legalizing cannabis. As this next phase of legal cannabis takes place, there are several marijuanastocks that are benefiting greatly from the speculation surrounding the industry.

IntegratedCannabis Company (ICNAF) (ICAN) has been climbing higher this month as the company has released key announcements on new corporate developments. Last week Integrated Cannabis Company announced the completion of a Letter Agreement to collaborate on X-SPRAYSTM products for the Canadian market with a Canadian License Producer under Health Canada's Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations, GTEC Holdings Ltd. Friday the company's stock saw its most active day since going public and during pre market trading on Monday, shares of Integrated Cannabis have traded as high as $1.16.

In reference to these latest corporate developments, the companies will engage with their science, marketing and distribution teams to streamline the logistics of developing and ultimately introducing products to the Canadian marketplace, over the coming weeks.

This news was released after the company recently completed the signingof a distribution agreement with Empower Clinics Inc. As of August 31 Empower has more than 25,000 patients under care across 15 locations with medical cannabis treatments in Oregon, Washington and Illinois. In addition, Empower has an historical patient database of more than 120,000 in the two states.
