David Hurford estimates there are upwards of 6,000 small cannabis producers in B.C. that are licensed by Health Canada to produce medical marijuana, which is more than a quarter of the entire 20,000 he said exist across Canada.

“There’s a real opportunity here,” Hurford told Global News on a visit to the Okanagan.
