Penelope has always been an avid supporter of alternative medicine. In recent years, she has kept current on the increasingly published health benefits of cannabis use. With the opioid addiction and overdose crisis in many parts of the country, she welcomed the legalization of cannabis on October 17, 2018 along with the financial opportunity to run her own business in a field she was passionate about! Penelope incorporated Happy ReLeaf Ltd ("HRL") in 2018 to operate her cannabis retail outlet. HRL completed its first fiscal year on October 31, 2019. As a Canadian-controlled, private corporation, HRL follows ASPE. Consistent with many other cannabis companies, HRL's first year results did not meet Penelope's expectations.

She also asked William to monitor closely HRL's current ratio and any changes that might impact it. Penelope has learned that it is a factor that will determine HRL's access to future financing with her bank.
