This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because...its an important company in the Canadian cannabis space and the page is still being setup. It's currently incomplete. -- Tokyosmokio ( talk) 14:00, 2 April 2018 (UTC)
Sorry for removing the speedy deletion notice. I'm new and misread something

Could you please clarify, is the company now known as Hiku Brands, or Hiku Brands Company Limited - or is there even a difference? Please advise. Spintendo 16:08, 6 April 2018 (UTC)
I think Hiku Brands can be merged with the Canopy Growth Wikipedia page. Since acquiring the company, Canopy Growth has seemingly wound Hiku and absorbed its brands. hiku.com now directs to Canopy Growth's website, and Canopy Growth lists brands gain through the Hiku acquisition alongside their other brands without mentioning Hiku. https://www.canopygrowth.com/brands/. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bikebagel ( talk • contribs) 14:20, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
