The name change occurs after the Ontario-based company exited court-supervised proceedings last month

CannTrust Equity Inc. this week announced its new corporate name, Phoena Holdings Inc. The new name represents a nod to the word phenotype, “which describes the traits taken from a plant’s genetic code that we use to merge nature, purpose and science to produce the best cannabis products on the market,” notes a statement from Phoena, which is 90 per cent owned by a group of investors and 10 per cent owned by CannTrust Holdings Inc.

Marijuana Business Daily reports that the name change comes as the Ontario-based company exited court-supervised proceedings last month after a key subsidiary completed a financing deal.

A small town, farm kid approach: Rogue Botanical innovates in crowded cannabis market

cannabis plant

John Fayed and Matt Tkachyk are farmers at heart. They are small town boys with a passion for agriculture and cannabis.

The pair are co-founders of Rogue Botanical, a licensed producer of cannabis-based products based out of Niverville.

Fayed grew up near a tiny town in Manitoba and his family owned a seed plant.

“My dad grew a lot of specialty crops and he’d try out plants that you can’t spray [with pesticides] because you don’t know what would or wouldn’t harm the plants,” Fayed says.

“If you can’t spray, you just have to let everything grow. And to get rid of what you didn’t want in the plot or fields, you would have to walk up and down the field and pull out the weeds. That’s called ‘roguing.’ So our name goes back to our farming roots.”

Nova Scotia's cannabis biz has had highs and lows since legalization

Peggy's Cove

Producers say they've been plagued by changing regulations, slow Health Canada approvals

It's been a wild ride for some cannabis companies in Nova Scotia since the legalization of cannabis in Canada in 2018.

While some have expanded their business, other facilities have closed.

"In many ways things have exceeded our expectations, but there were also things we weren't expecting with the industry," said Aqualitas CEO Myrna Gillis.

Aqualitas built its facility on Nova Scotia's South Shore at the old Bowater-Mersey pulp plant in Brooklyn, Queens County.

Gillis said business is going well, but fluctuating prices and supply issues have cannabis companies rolling with the punches.
