Ross Rebagliati, the Canadian Olympic gold medallist and bad boy of snowboarding, plans to open up a franchise of medical marijuana shops that trades on his fame.
Cheekily called Ross’s Gold, the company expects to set up a flagship store in Whistler this spring once the federal government privatizes the medical marijuana production industry.
And Mr. Rebagliati projects his business will be doing more than $50-million a year after the third year, once it opens satellite stores in Vancouver and Toronto.
