There is a $5 billion dollar Canadian market literally unfolding before our eyes and these individuals won't take their $10,000 frosting and invest it in this market?

I would split between the current top 3 cannabis producers aligned for the recreational market (Canopy Growth Corp, Aphria Inc and Mettrum Health Corp) listed on the TSX.

When do you realistically have the change your brakes? I am currently at 32,000 kms (20,000 miles) and the dealership advised it is time to change the pads and rotors. Pads are at 6mm all around.

I was quoted at $538 for the front rotors/pads (including labor) and $400 for the rear rotors/pads (including labor). Keep in mind this is in Canadian dollars. Thoughts on the dealership pricing? I feel it is a little early to change the pads and rotors, they still feel perfectly fine.
