Key Details

  • CEO Statement: “Nicola, its legal team, and NASDAQ continue to work sedulously towards assuring a sound structure as we move forward with this strategic structure…we remain committed to prudently move forward in a structure beneficial to the US markets while striving for stability to our Canadian shareholders.”
