Two Canadian marijuana growers are hoping to get high on profit after agreeing to merge and create a $6 billion company.
Aurora Cannabis is buying smaller pot producer CanniMed Therapeutics after a far-from-mellow takeover battle between the firms.
Canada plans to legalise recreational marijuana before July, and the drug developers are betting on the merger putting them in a strong position when those changes come in.
The deal is the largest so far in Canada's fast-growing cannabis sector and creates the world's most valuable marijuana company.
