"I could not be more excited for our company and shareholders to see our investment in Brownsline and the City of Etobicoke come together and be fully open to serve patients." said Steven McAuley, Chairman & CEO Of Empower Clinics. "We are all living though challenging times, yet I have watched our outstanding team members be optimistic, persevere and never waiver from our goals. We are a collective, we care about our patients, the communities we serve, our shareholders, and we look forward to many more grand openings."

The status of our clinic pipeline in Canada can be summarized as follows:

Empowers Chairman & CEO Steven McAuley further states, "We are leveraging our R&D and product divisions to ensure people everywhere have more control over their personal healthcare outcomes. Wellness matters, it matters to me, it matters to our team members, it matters to our shareholders, it matters to our partners, it matters to the patients and communities we serve."
