For shoppers at Canada's legal cannabis stores, it's not always clear who's behind the bud. Snappy brand names are everywhere, but strict legal limits on promoting cannabis make it hard for brands to explain what they're all about.

The Leaf News brand explorer lets cannabis shoppers plug in a name and get quick facts about who produced it and where the producer is based. Where available, we've also included a brief statement describing the brand in the producer's own words. Click on the arrow after the description to visit the brand's website.
