One of Gatineau’s emerging players in the cannabis and hemp space added a bit of cash to its operations through a private placement this week.
LiveWell Canada announced Thursday that it has closed a non-brokered private placement of nearly two million units at a price of 80 cents each, yielding total proceeds of $1.55 million.
