There are more than five million cannabis consumers in Canada, with more than 1.3 million of them residing in British Columbia and Alberta.
Those consumers are diverse, with seniors forming the fastest-growing segment of Canadian society turning to legal cannabis.
With that in mind, as well as the explosive growth in legal cannabis retailers throughout Western Canada, Black Press Media is proud to announce the launch of Canadian Evergreen, a new age-gated cannabis-focused news and lifestyle website for adult consumers.
