MONTREAL, Jan. 10, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Relevium Technologies Inc. (TSX.V:“RLV”, OTCQB:“RLLVF” and Frankfurt: “6BX”) (the “Company or Relevium”), is pleased to announce the national screening of “Weed the People” across eight Canadian cities on January 15, 2019.

Relevium Technologies, in partnership with Executive Producer Ricki Lake, Director Abby Epstein and Cannakids.org, will be conducting a nation-wide screening of Weed the People, a compelling, emotional and educational film that explores the potential benefits of medical cannabis oils for pediatric applications. The film follows the journey of five families dealing with children suffering from cancer and the introduction of cannabis oil to treat their children following the failure of conventional treatments. The families in the documentary pursue the use of cannabis alongside conventional treatments, including chemotherapy and radiation, revealing thought-provoking outcomes that support further research and exposing the legal contextual hurdles faced by these parents as they pursue lifesaving alternatives for their children.

Relevium Technologies recently announced the exclusive license from Cannakids’ to introduce medical cannabis formulations, SOPs and branding into the Canadian market to pursue pediatric applications and support ongoing research. Tracy Ryan, the CEO of CK Properties and its brand Cannakids, and her family are one of the five families described in the film, which also tells the story of her motivation to enter into the medical cannabis business to support her daughter’s battle against cancer.

Aurelio Useche, CEO of Relevium Technologies stated: “The film is an amazing journey into the potential opportunities of complementing traditional treatments for Cancer and other illness in Pediatric patients.” Mr. Useche stated further: “We at Relevium are committed to introduce and further develop these possibilities, which is why we feel everyone should attend the screening of this amazing documentary, a film that not only opens a potential door for hope for patients and their families, but also further validates the legalization of Cannabis in Canada by the Canadian Government and by our prime minister Justin Trudeau.”
