[Hopespringpcsg] FW: This email is full of support for you!

Hi all:

See below for the weekly e-newsletter from HopeSpring.

Our scheduled speaker from TWEED/Spectrum Therapeutics for the PCSG meeting last week was a no show!

2 follow up contacts via phone & e-mail were not successful & it is presumed both are likely casualties of the shake out of the Cannabis industry in Canada. 

Take care & stay well.

Glen
