The Curious Case of Maple Leaf Green World (MGW.C)
Long time readers will remember the weird ass name of Maple Leaf Green World (MGW.C) from several years back in the cannabis space, when a group arrived from China determined to make their riches in the North American weed fields, only to end up in a small, dank, broken down greenhouse in Nevada, under a…

WTF is happening with: American Aires (WIFI)
Buying the pump can be a dangerous game, but no company on the North American markets right now is driving its pump as hard as American Aires (WIFI.C), a company that long time readers will recall from back in 2019 as a big ass pump that didn’t make much sense at the time, but made…

Weed roll-up BZAM (BZAM.C) used stock to buy assets <60 days before asking for creditor protection
You’ve built a decent little company. You’ve grown some brands. You’re feeling okay about things when a bigger company comes along, offers you a bunch of their stock, making you a significant shareholder, and tells you there are other strong hands in the investor base, including the wealthy chairman who has been lending the company…

Behind the scenes on the public markets: Why everything is broken and how to fix it
In my opinion, journalism – actual journalism – isn’t just about reporting what you see that’s wrong in the world, but working to get the things that are wrong.. righted. Telling people a building collapsed is easy. Reporting on the press conference that follows is ‘phone it in’ stuff. But talking about it every day…

The reputation of Defense Metals (DEFN.V) is so good, neighbours are spending money promoting it
“Respect the work.” This is a phrase every resource investor should have posted above their trading monitor, every day, for the rest of their lives. It’s the one thing that separates the real resource companies that have a chance at being something, from the pretenders who will go out of their way NOT to advance…

Lucy Loves Luchre: Psyence Group (PSYG.C) was always just a shroom chaser
The boss has told me to start running the rule over weed and psychedelics companies with a view to picking out anything that’s quietly profitable, or could be soon, among the general dross of both sectors, and to say I’m excited by that would be an overstatement. In general, cannabis companies are hamstrung by government…

Tempus Resources (TMRR.V) rolls grenade into the room and leaves the country
Just days after Tempus Resources (TMRR.V, though not for much longer) dropped a middling resource update and ‘big news’ that they were extending the option on a lithium property, CEO Jason Bahnsen has announced not only is he not closing that deal after all, but his company is abandoning the Canadian markets altogether and disappearing…

Lancaster Resources (LCR.C) will make you a believer, as the sun burns you alive
If you’re not big on mining and resource exploration as an investment opportunity, I get it. I really do. The resource crowd can be very inside baseball and a little old school, which is weird when you consider that nearly every video game that’s been a success in the last 20 years has some sort…

Vindication: After 5 years, regulators take the axe to former St Jean Carbon (SJL.V) CEO for news scam
The Alberta Securities Commission has announced it has found that former Saint Jean Carbon (SJL.V) CEO Paul Ogilvie misled investors in 2017 when he claimed his company had performed what was his ‘greatest accomplishment’ by securing an off-take deal with the giant electronics firm, Panasonic Corporation.
