The Canadian marijuana stocks on our list have been granted a sales license by Health Canada recently

Although there are more than 100 cannabis-related companies in Canada, there are significantly fewer companies with a license to sell, which gives companies like those we have weeded out today a distinct advantage when recreational use of marijuana is legalized in Canada on October 17, 2018.
