VRT is back on the move north! Volume picking up nicely this week and 25% gain in 2 days!! Hopefully this goes right up to the marijuana legalization for Canada!

NEWS!!! March 14, 2017, Vancouver, B.C. – Veritas Pharma Inc. (CSE: VRT; OTC: VRTHF; and Frankfurt: 2VP), an emerging discovery and IP development company, is pleased to announce that its research arm, Cannevert Therapeutics Ltd, will soon be entering the security inspection stage of its Health Canada Dealer’s License application to produce, gather or cultivate cannabis for scientific purposes.

Cannevert originally submitted its application on August 23, 2016 to Health Canada’s Office of Controlled Substances; this was processed as a continuation of our previous application by the group’s chemistry team. Cannevert currently holds a Health Canada scientific exemption which allows it to order a set total amount of cannabis using one Canadian licensed producer at a time. The new application will enable the team to produce "whole-plant" extracts, source from multiple licensed producers, and export cannabis materials for research purposes such as clinical trials being conducted overseas. Cannevert also indicated on its application that it would like to be on a public list of licensed laboratories able to conduct such activities with cannabis under the Narcotic Control Regulations; this list can be found at https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/list-licensed-dealers.html

This Dealer’s License will include analytical testing for persons who fall under the following Section 56 exemption, which is for registered persons and individuals responsible for them or authorized persons to provide, deliver, transport or send fresh and dried marijuana and cannabis oil to Licensed Dealers for analytical testing. Cannevert also indicated that it would like to perform analytical testing of cannabis samples received from holders of a valid license issued under the Industrial Hemp Regulations.

Cannevert has been notified that the company will be undergoing a security inspection soon. Veritas CEO, Lui Franciosi stated, “We are pleased with the status of Cannevert’s Dealer’s License Application. Reaching the security inspection stage means that the company is getting closer to being one of the few labs in Canada allowed to perform analytical testing and biological screening of cannabis and hemp for licensed producers. The License also complements Cannevert’s research, by removing existing barriers of supply, thereby enabling to progress in faster, more efficient and more comprehensive manner.

Acquisition of this Dealer’s License when combined with a commercial grower’s license will add significant value to Cannevert, Sechelt and Veritas.” (Sechelt Organic Marijuana Corp. was recently notified by Health Canada that it has successfully progressed into the Final Review stage of the ‘Access to Cannabis for Medical Purposes Regulations’ (ACMPR) application process).

About Sechelt Organic Medicine Inc.

Sechelt was formed to become a producer of medical marijuana under the ACMPR license. The products designed by Cannevert Therapeutics require the ability to grow specific strains of medical marijuana under ideal conditions. Sechelt provides Cannevert Therapeutics this ability. Veritas has entered into an acquisition agreement with the owners of Sechelt, subject to the issuance of ACMPR license.

Thanks Artweed for that! Nice to know there is someone else that is keeping an eye on this. Not too many people know this company even exists yet, but I have been talking about them on Twitter when I can. I have both Veritas and Marapharm following me on twitter now so that is pretty awesome. And yes it will take years for significant revenue from Veritas, but everything is coming together very nicely for them already. They just keep putting their money where it needs to be in all areas of the marijuana business. Canada is slow with full legalization but for medical marijuana they will get plenty of government support. Even when Veritas has stock dips I just hold and add when I can. When it goes up I just hold and buy from other companies. They have my full support for the long run unless they massively mess up one day which I highly doubt.

Edgenation, I've read your posts on Veritas and thought I should chip in a post myself, since I have been researching and investing in Veritas for some time. I've scoured the company's website, read their investment presentation and market strategies, and compared them to the competition, and there's no doubt Veritas will emerge as a leading pharmaceutical research company and end up with many patents for its proprietary strains.

Among the key things that sold me on the company is their leadership team, which features blue-chip business executives and top-notch scientists and chemists. These guys know cannabis top to bottom and should be able to produce unique marketable products after successful clinical trials.

That said, everyone needs to bear in mind that Veritas, like many other small start-ups, is still a very early-stage cannabis company. They are still years away from earning significant profits because of the lengthy, intensive nature of human clinical trials. The good news is that this is one of the rare companies that I believe you can count on to actually achieve their long-term goals, and when that does happen the company will be worth hundreds of millions, not the US$10 million they're worth today.

Despite being early stage, there is still a lot of room for Veritas stock to go up in price in the near term. Veritas is rather overlooked and people will discover it as future news about milestones and getting government approvals is achieved. You and I are in on the ground floor, but there is still time for others to join us before the scope and credibility of the company is demonstrated.

Obviously, Marapharma is a company that recognized Veritas's stellar leadership when they made a major investment in the organization (which makes Marapharma a good investment as well).

Bottom line, unlike many small cannabis companies, Veritas will actually prove to be a huge winner in the coming years. I am willing to be patient and keep investing on the dips like we had today. It's good to see you are just as excited as I am, so keep the faith and keep posting those news updates!

NEWS!!!
Veritas Provides Update ACMPR and Cannabis Cultivation Facility and Production Methodology

March 5, 2017, Vancouver, B.C. Veritas Pharma Inc. "Veritas". (trading on: CSE: VRT - OTC: VRTHF - FSE: 2VP), pursuant to the news release dated February 20, 2017, was notified by Health Canada to be in the final review stage of its license application, announces additional details in regards to its marijuana growing strategy and facility.

The acquisition of Veritas' wholly owned subsidiary, Sechelt Organic Marijuana Corp. "Sechelt", is subject to certain terms and conditions, including obtaining a Health Canada ACMPR/MMPR license for the building of a cannabis growing facility. Since July 4th, 2014, Sechelt has had an application pending with Health Canada for said license. Sechelt leases with an option to purchase 0.73 acres of fenced, geo - tech industrial property in an approved jurisdiction to build a 2 story, 10,000 square foot MMPR facility in Sechelt, British Columbia, Canada. The plans for this facility include 6,800 sq. ft. of budding rooms, 3,000 sq. ft. of cloning rooms, as well as a small testing lab and secure storage room. The building and the security requirements have been designed and implemented in compliance with Canadian government requirements. Sechelt personnel include an experienced grow team, who meet all of the ACMPR licensing guidelines. Sechelt’s personnel utilize a unique “no till” technique, which results in the growth of consistent strains, which are both 100% organic and cost efficient. The proposed grow rooms are unique both in construction and design, with each unit meeting air flow management and electrical light requirements. Additionally, the growing method focuses on organic methods for soil management, and the complete exclusion of spraying any types of chemicals. Finally, the unique soil conditions and growing environment is designed to maximize both quality and quantity of marijuana produced.

Veritas CEO, Dr. Lui Franciosi, commented, “Our goal is to create shareholder value. To achieve this, we plan to create the most effective disease-resistant specific strains of marijuana, and to provide conclusive scientific evidence so doctors and patients alike can recommend and use our proprietary strains with confidence. A key portion of the strategy is to produce high quality, consistent marijuana plants. I am confident that with our strategy, which combines organic growing practices, industry leading testing standards, and scientific approaches to growing methods, we can produce the highest quality strains required for the branding of our proposed products. Good business allows for good revenue and good revenue allows for good profit and this too, is a goal for Veritas.”

NEWS!!!

Veritas Receives Listing On The XETRA® (Frankfurt, Germany) Trading Venue

December 8, 2016, Vancouver, B.C. – Veritas Pharma Inc. (CSE: VRT; OTC: VRTHF; and Frankfurt: 2VP), an emerging discovery and IP development company, is pleased to announce that as of December 7th, 2016, its common shares are accepted for continuous trading on the electronic trading platform XETRA® on the Frankfurt Exchange under the symbol 2VP. Veritas Pharma’s management expects that a listing through Xetra® will provide higher liquidity and more efficient market pricing for the company’s common shares.

Veritas CEO, Dr. Franciosi, stated “this is a very exciting development and we are proud to be accepted for trading on the Xetra® platform. Xetra® is a more senior European trading venue and I believe that this will be an important step in introducing our company to a wider range of qualified retail and institutional investors.”

About Xetra®

Xetra® is an all-electronic trading system based in Frandkfurt, Germany. It was launched in 1997 and is operated by the Deutsche Börse. Eventhough Xetra® was originally designed for the Frankfurt Stock Exchange, it has since expanded to various European exchanges. Xetra® trading venue supports more than 90 percent of all shares trading within Germany.1 Xetra®, through its platform, offers increased visibility for order depths and offers trading of stocks, funds, bonds, warrants, and commodities. “In addition to the Frankfurt trading platform, international partner exchanges also use its trading technology, including the Bulgarian Stock Exchange, the Irish Stock Exchange and the Malta Stock Exchange and Wiener Börse AG. The world’s largest exchange network connects 4,000 traders from 16 European countries plus Hong Kong and the United Arab Emirates.”1

Just averaged down to 0.3358 average by picking up more shares at $0.315
Now my position is doubled. Will double again if it drops to 0.25

Ok so after much reading here is what I like.

21.2 issued shares with Market Cap under 10Million. Current share price $0.36
They keep buying other other companies with pocket money. One of the companies is a marijuana growing facility in BC. Another company is a therapeutics company. This is what I've gotten from an hour of looking into it. Health Canada has already approved Veritas.

So low float, cheap shares, not much trading. This is in my mind a hidden gem yet to be discovered.

Just added this new board! These guys can be the ones to make new strains for our cannabis producers!
