CCO Cam Battley looks over marijuana plants at the Aurora Sky facility in Edmonton Alberta, July 13, 2018.Another top executive is leaving the Canadian marijuana industry after Aurora Cannabis Inc. announced the departure of chief corporate officer Cam Battley.
His departure follows the firing of former Canopy Growth Corp. chief executive Bruce Linton this summer, as well as the exits of top leaders at Aphria Inc. in January.All three companies were early leaders in the race to dominate the Canadian cannabis industry but have struggled over the past year – even though recreational use of marijuana was legalized in October, 2018.
Last month Edmonton-based Aurora reported a 24 per cent drop in revenue quarter-over-quarter and also announced that it was deferring “for the foreseeable future” the completion of a 1.6-million-square-foot growing facility in Medicine Hat, as well as halting construction work on a greenhouse in Denmark.
