Reviews
"Two young Canadians saw a business opportunity and threw themselves into it. Their story is one of hard work, high energy, endless ingenuity, and above all, persistence. Canada's budding entrepreneurs can be inspired by the path blazed by Adam and Seb." -- Dalton McGuinty, Ontario's 24th Premier, "A story of two young men with an insatiable thirst for success and learning is compelling in itself. The 'Billion Dollar Lessons' that punctuate the story are essential reading for any budding entrepreneur who aspires to start the next billion-dollar company." -- Michael Henry, Dean, School of Business & Economics, Thompson Rivers University, "A story of two young men with an insatiable thirst for success and learning is compelling in itself. The 'Billion Dollar Lessons' that punctuate the story are essential reading for any budding entrepreneur who aspires to start the next billion-dollar company." -- Michael Henry, Dean, School of Business & Economics, Thompson Rivers University "How fun to now get a behind-the-scenes peek at the phrenetic growth of HEXO against the backdrop of cannabis legalization. It's an entrepreneur's dream ... on steroids!" -- Trina Fraser, partner, Brazeau Seller Law, CannaLaw® group "Two young Canadians saw a business opportunity and threw themselves into it. Their story is one of hard work, high energy, endless ingenuity, and above all, persistence. Canada's budding entrepreneurs can be inspired by the path blazed by Adam and Seb." -- Dalton McGuinty, Ontario's 24th Premier "A fascinating tale of two young entrepreneurs navigating through an ocean of complex health regulations, filled with finance sharks and storms of uncertainty. One of the few true success stories in the frantic new cannabis business." -- Tristan Péloquin, cannabis beat reporter, La Presse "A front-row seat to the frenzy that drove Canada's cannabis industry to half the market capitalization of the country's gold mining industry. Compelling reading with real-world lessons you can actually use." -- Steve Brearton, award-winning business journalist and writer "HEXO is a uniquely Canadian story. I witnessed its rise firsthand but reading this expertly crafted narrative was beyond enlightening and inspiring. The artist Prince said, 'a strong spirit transcends rules.' There's some great transcendence in this book." -- Raine Maida, lead singer of multi-platinum rock band, Our Lady Peace "A lively, well-researched book that offers readers a true backstage pass to the ins and outs of all the work involved behind the development of a pioneering and successful Canadian cannabis company." -- Simon Gervais, former RCMP counterterrorism officer and #1 international bestselling author of Hunt Them Down "The objective facts flavoured by the colourful creativity of a story weaver and tempered with the discipline of a historian. This delicious tableau brings the wonder and excitement to the reader, experienced by the participants of this entrepreneurial adventure themselves!" -- Michel Weatherall, editor-in-chief at Broken Keys Publishing, author of The Symbiot Trilogy "Only a handful of companies have had the courage to strike a distinctively Canadian pose abroad." -- Literary Review of Canada "From financial hardships to life-changing moments, this book covers it all and is a must-read for any aspiring entrepreneur." -- Hardbacon, "A fascinating tale of two young entrepreneurs navigating through an ocean of complex health regulations, filled with finance sharks and storms of uncertainty.
