Canopy Growth Corporation, formerly Tweed Marijuana Inc., is a cannabis company based in Smiths Falls, Ontario.

In April 2019, Canopy was the world's largest cannabis company based on the value of all shares or market capitalization.[2] At that time, Constellation Brands Inc. controlled over 35% percent of the company which had approximately 3,200 employees.[3] The year 2019 created new challenges for the company however, with its stock price dropping by about 32%.[4] In the next two years (to the end of 2021) its shares dropped an additional 55%.
