Doubt it is the same one, but will guarantee that someone else is doing it. I am hoping Canadian regulators are a bit smarter than the American ones, and won't go by something they read off hand and without verifying... It is not that I am hoping for a lack of corruptness in a government - I just saw the politics of this one being different. To me it seems like HC's best interest is to show its new regulatory change can work, and part of that is addressing supply.

But otherwise, there are tons of sleazy firms out there trying to directly influence key individuals. There is even crazy sh!t that goes on, like 'poisoning the bubble', where manipulators try to impersonate or feed info to friends and family of key people in disturbing 'long con' schemes.

Just be on the lookout for issuing of licenses to any other companies. That info will help tell if we are skipped. The one single I'm willing to bet on is a delay of issuing that kind of news from FITX...
