OTTAWA, Aug. 18, 2017 /CNW/ - Cannabis Canada Association is pleased to announce James E. Wagner Cultivation (JWC) as one of the Association's newest members.

JWC based in the Kitchener-Waterloo region has a Cultivation Licence to produce medical cannabis under Health Canada's Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations (ACMPR).

"Cannabis Canada is pleased to welcome James E. Wagner Cultivation to the Association," said Colette Rivet, Cannabis Canada's Executive Director.

Recognizing this, most cannabis companies are joining our Association very soon after receiving their licence from Health Canada. They want to be part of the united voice representing their interests with all three levels of government across the country."

"JWC is excited to be a member of the Cannabis Canada Association," said Nathan Woodworth, CEO of James E. Wagner Cultivation.
