MedReleaf comments on decision to rescind Obama-era memo on U.S. federal cannabis law enforcement

MARKHAM, ON, Jan. 4, 2018 /CNW/ - MedReleaf Corp. (TSX:LEAF) ("MedReleaf" or the "Company"), Canada's first and only ISO 9001 and ICH-GMP certified producer of medical cannabis, today provided an update in response to the recent U.S. federal cannabis law enforcement memo issued by United States Attorney General, Jeff Sessions. 

The Company does not have, and does not intend to engage in, any direct, indirect or ancillary involvement in the U.S. cannabis industry until it is federally legal to do so.  As a result of MedReleaf's approach, any changes to the enforcement of United States federal laws on marijuana will not affect the Company's business.
