If you are interested in investing in the Canadian LP category then consider doing so in a cannabis ETF with the largest percentage of such as the Global X Cannabis ETF (POTX). Read my recent article on marijuana ETFs here.

If you are adventuresome then consider investing in one of the following leveraged (inverse or bull) ETFs:

1. ETFMG 2x Daily Inverse Alternative Harvest ETF (MJIN)
2. ETFMG 2x Daily Bull Alternative Harvest ETF (MJXL)
3. BetaPro 2x Inverse Canadian Marijuana Companies ETF (HMJI)
4. Horizons 2x Bull Marijuana Companies ETF (HMJU)

An "inverse" ETF is the way to go if you think the cannabis sector is going to decline considerably in the months ahead while a 'bull" ETF is for those that think the sector is going to advance. Personally, I think the marijuana market has no where to go but up having declined 51.3% YTD - and having declined 91.7% from its peak in February 2021. That is not a recommendation so do your own research before taking a position.
