🌱 Why We're Paused

Anchor Cannabis is ready to grow — but New Brunswick’s system isn’t.

We’ve done everything needed to bring locally grown, small-batch cannabis to market in a legal and responsible way. We’ve invested in infrastructure, received Health Canada licensing, and worked through the federal requirements.

But here's the problem:

In New Brunswick, cannabis retailers must sign a mandatory agreement with Cannabis NB (CNB) — a government-owned distributor that also acts as our direct competitor. We’re being asked to hand over our business plan, pricing, and proprietary details to an organization that benefits from limiting competition.

This isn’t collaboration — it’s coercion. And it’s not how a fair market works.

We were even required to sign a non-disclosure agreement just to view Farmgate options. Meanwhile, producers like us are left unable to speak out while CNB controls retail pricing and product access.

Until these barriers are addressed, Anchor Cannabis is paused by policy, not by choice.

💬 Want to Help?

We believe in a future where local cannabis producers can thrive, where legal options are affordable and accessible, and where the spirit of the Cannabis Act — not monopolies — drives regulation.
