TORONTO, ONTARIO / ACCESSWIRE / April 24, 2017 / Maricann Group Inc. (CSE: MARI) ("Maricann" or the "Company"), a low cost, greenhouse producer of medical cannabis with market leading technological differentiation, will begin trading today on the Canadian Securities Exchange ("CSE") under the stock symbol "MARI".

Maricann's public listing follows a series of recent transactions and approvals. On April 18, 2017, the shareholders of Maricann Inc.
