Manitoba government says it's owed $500K from company that struggled after supply glut.

A startup company's plan to turn a tree nursery into a commercial hemp operation has gone bust.

The Manitoba government terminated its land lease last month with Botanist Organic Growers Corporation, the province confirmed on Thursday.

The company, which made no progress toward production of hemp cannabidiol, or CBD, now owes the province $500,000.

Botanist Organic Growers bought the sprawling greenhouse facility near Hadashville, Man., about 90 kilometres east of Winnipeg, from the province in 2019 for $1.43 million. The province had shut down operations at the provincially run tree nursery in 2018, saying it was losing money.

Will a Change in Leadership Turn Things Around for Hexo?

Turnover is nothing new for top cannabis producers in Canada, even at leadership levels. Bruce Linton (Canopy Growth), Vic Neufeld (Aphria -- which is now part of Tilray), Terry Booth (Aurora Cannabis), and Greg Engel (OrganiGram Holdings) are all former CEOs who left their positions atop their respective cannabis companies in recent years. The latest to join that list is Sebastien St-Louis of marijuana producer Hexo (NASDAQ:HEXO).

What made the Hexo announcement unique was the catalyst behind it: a shareholder letter. Investors weren't happy with the direction of the business and the company now has a new boss, Scott Cooper, who comes from the packaged goods industry. Will the change make Hexo a better buy?

In my view, investors should probably avoid buying shares of Sundial Growers (NASDAQ:SNDL) and Aurora Cannabis (NASDAQ:ACB). Neither of the Canadian marijuana companies is profitable, and both reported plummeting quarterly revenue in their most recent earnings update. 

But that doesn't mean the two stocks are equal, and I see one of the two as the clear winner of the matchup. I even see one of them eventually becoming an excellent investment once a few key things improve. Let's investigate why.

Marijuana Leaf?

Canada is known as a haven for hockey fans and beer drinkers. To the list, add pot smokers. After initial growing pains, the marijuana industry in Canada is exploding on the upside. Perhaps the Great White North will one day replace the maple leaf on its flag with a marijuana leaf.

This month marks the third anniversary of Canada’s nationwide legalization of adult-use (recreational) cannabis, a milestone in the multi-billion-dollar global market for pot.

Canada’s move came five years after Uruguay became the first country in the world to do so, but Canada has the distinction of being the first G-7 nation to fully legalize cannabis.
