(CSE: OILS) (OTCQB: OILFF) (FSE: L0MA) ("Nextleaf", "OILS", or the "Company") , a federally regulated manufacturer and distributor of cannabis vapes and oils under its prohibition-era brand, Glacial Gold™, is pleased to announce that Distilled CBD 100 Oil and Distilled CBD 200 Oil are available nationally through its medical cannabis distribution partner, Quebec-based Medicibis ("Mendo").

The Company's multi-patented ingredient processing technology is the secret behind Glacial Gold™ products. Distilled CBD 200 Oil was developed to meet the needs of the everyday CBD consumer. Glacial Gold™ CBD distilled oils are formulated with organic coconut MCT oil and a standardized dose of CBD.
In British Columbia, Nextleaf is a top 10 supplier of vapes and oils. Glacial Gold™ has multiple products inside the top 20 best selling SKUs within the vape and oils categories.

Mendo operates an online portal for medical patients that ships nationwide through www.mendocannabis.ca. All Glacial Gold™ CBD and THC vapes and distilled oils are distributed by Mendo to their patients in Quebec and across Canada.
"We've made the process of obtaining a medical cannabis document and becoming a member of Mendo a quick and easy one," said Jay Schwartz co-founder and COO of Mendo. "Canadians that visit our online platform simply follow a link and schedule a consultation with one of our licensed medical professionals. This is done from the comfort of their home by telephone or video conference. In most cases the applicant's account is approved within 24 to 36 hours at which point they may begin to place orders for medical cannabis delivered to their home as early as the next business day." Mr. Schwartz added, "We are delighted to offer all Canadians a carefully curated menu of products with compassion pricing, as well as swift access to receive their medical document at no charge."
"The team at Mendo are experienced operators with a unique approach in Quebec that has been a major catalyst for the growth of their distribution platform," said Paul Pedersen co-founder and CEO of Nextleaf. "Nextleaf is pleased for Glacial Gold vapes and distilled oils to be available to medical patients coast to coast through the Mendo platform".
CBD is increasingly thought of as a potential therapeutic treatment for opioid use disorder. On January 4, 2022, the FDA approved human trials evaluating an investigational drug using CBD to be conducted at UCLA and funded by the U.S. National Institute on Drug Abuse.[1]
Medical patients including veterans, have made it clear that they need a reliable supply of consistent quality medical cannabis products for those living with PTSD, chronic pain, and other conditions that disproportionately impact veterans. According to a 2019 Veterans Health and Medical Cannabis Study[2], 96% of veterans reported they experience a much greater quality of life because of their cannabis consumption.
As part of the Company's commitment to improving access to medical cannabis, Nextleaf launched an assortment of accessibly priced Glacial Gold™ CBD and THC products for the medical market through Mendo.
Quebec is the third-largest cannabis market in Canada, representing approximately 15%[3] of Canadian cannabis retail sales in the country, and approximately 22% of the Canadian population[4]. Canadian spending on medical cannabis totaled $587 million in 2020[5]. Medical cannabis has become an important component of Canadian healthcare, with $119 million of medical cannabis purchases reimbursed by the Federal Government through Veterans Affairs Canada in 2020[6].
