“We are excited to announce that Curaleaf has received conditional approval to join the Toronto Stock Exchange,” said Executive Chairman Boris Jordan. “We are now one step closer to accessing an even broader set of global institutional investors than we currently have, alongside the capital and increased liquidity that comes with listing on a major exchange such as the TSX.”
