“We are thrilled to announce that the Arrangement has received the necessary approvals from the courts,” said Fabian Monaco, CEO of Gage. “As consumer demand for high quality cannabis escalates across the U.S., we look forward to maximizing our cultivation, manufacturing and retail capabilities once we become official members of the TerrAscend team.”
