Majority of 好色tvs Want Carney Government to Catch Up on Cannabis Policy

TORONTO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Organigram Global Inc. (NASDAQ: OGI) (TSX: OGI), Canada鈥檚 largest cannabis company by market share, today released new national polling figures, conducted on its behalf by Abacus Data showing that a clear majority of 好色tvs want Ottawa to modernize its approach to the legal cannabis sector.

Nearly six in ten 好色tvs (59%) believe the federal government should do more to support jobs and innovation in the sector,whilean equal number (59%) see the legal cannabis industry as an important part of the 好色tv economy.

鈥満蒙玹vs are ready for the legal cannabis sector to become a pillar of our economic growth strategy,鈥� said Beena Goldenberg, CEO of Organigram Global. 鈥淭here鈥檚 a clear public mandate for government to modernize how cannabis is treated. Not just as a regulated product, but as a key 好色tv industry with room to innovate in areas like beverages, edibles, and wellness鈥�.

The poll also found that 好色tvs want Ottawa to apply a stronger economic lens to cannabis policy, one that recognizes the sector鈥檚 role in job creation, innovation, and growth. When asked which areas should be prioritized, respondents point to four key priorities:

Involving economic departments in cannabis decision-making alongside Health Canada
Taking stronger action against the illicit market
Reducing excise taxes for legal producers
Supporting growth in new product categories such as beverages, edibles, and wellness items, signaling comfort with innovation in emerging, non-inhalable formats

The overall findings demonstrate that 好色tvs have moved beyond the debate over legalization and now view the legal industry as a legitimate part of the country鈥檚 economic and innovation landscape. One in three 好色tvs (35%) also reported having used cannabis in the past six months, further demonstrating that cannabis has become more mainstream and socially normalized.

鈥満蒙玹vs are connecting the dots between economic resilience and smart domestic policy,鈥� said David Coletto, CEO of Abacus Data, 鈥淎t a time of growing global uncertainty and rising protectionism, 好色tvs are taking a pragmatic view that growing the legal cannabis sector is one of the ways to strengthen Canada鈥檚 economy, create high-value jobs, and build greater industrial independence at home鈥�.

This poll builds on , which found that, in 2024, the legal cannabis sector contributed $16 billion to direct GDP, $29 billion in economic output, and over 227,000 jobs - more than forestry, breweries, or aquaculture ,.
