New-old job for Trailer Park Boys

A Moncton marijuana producer says it is targeting recreational users by enlisting some well-known dopes to help sell the weed.

OrganiGram is working with the Trailer Park Boys’ production company to develop branding and packaging for the product.

The company says it’s planning for the pending legalization of marijuanna. There’s no word on the value of the five-year deal.

Pipeline gridlock

A leading industry group says pipeline gridlock is harming Canada’s global reputation as an attractive place to invest in oil and gas projects.

The Canadian Association of Petroleum Producers says Trump’s election adds pressure on Canada to clear regulatory hurdles blocking new projects. Northern Gateway was scuttled by the courts, Keystone X-L was rejected by President Obama and protesters are gearing up to battle the expansion of the Trans Mountain pipeline if it’s approved by Ottawa.
