- -1 = Discarded Business Record from Database: (“Loblaw Companies Limited”)
- Rationale = Loblaw Companies Limited is a Canada-based grocery, pharmacy, and general merchandise retailer. Loblaw was previously involved in the cannabis industry through its ownership in "Shoppers Drug Mart Inc." However, Shoppers Drug Mart sold its cannabis business and operations to publicly-traded "Avicanna Inc." Given that Shoppers Drug Mart is no longer cannabis-related, Loblaw Companies Limited no longer qualifies for inclusion as it doesn't have any other connection to the cannabis industry.
- -5 = Discarded Business Record from Database: (“George Weston Limited”) – 1 Company with 5 Securities (1 Common & 4 Preferred)
- Rationale = George Weston Limited is a Canada-based holding company engaged in food processing and distribution business. George Weston’s subsidiary, Loblaw Companies Limited, was previously involved in the cannabis industry through its ownership in "Shoppers Drug Mart Inc." However, Shoppers Drug Mart sold its cannabis business and operations to publicly-traded "Avicanna Inc." Given that Shoppers Drug Mart is no longer cannabis-related, George Weston Limited no longer qualifies for inclusion as it doesn't have any other connection to the cannabis industry.
