Among the 50 most recent disclosed rounds, the largest disclosed amount is Cansortium’s $97M on 2024-11-26, which dwarfs the next-largest disclosed rounds (e.g., LEEF Brands at $11M on 2025-12-05 and Eli at $12M on 2025-06-10) and sits well above the many sub-$10M checks in the list. The amount distribution also shows a low-end outlier: the smallest disclosed amount is Jointly’s $10K on 2026-05-14, far below the rest of the disclosed entries.
Geographically, Toronto appears repeatedly (e.g., June Health $2M on 2026-06-18; Common Wealth $9M on 2026-04-13; Sprout Family $1M on 2025-03-17; Phoenix Health $35M on 2025-03-13), suggesting hub concentration rather than city dispersion, while the dates cluster strongly in late 2025 through mid-2026: the most recent round is June Health on 2026-06-18, and the oldest row shown is Hempsana on 2023-05-11. Stage mix is also skewed toward unspecified rounds: 18 entries are labeled “Series Unknown,” and 4 are “undisclosed,” limiting direct comparisons where stage is critical. Notably, “Series Unknown” entries are common across the period (for example, Tourism Industry Association of Canada at $580K on 2026-06-01 and COVE at $9M on 2023-07-20).

Frequently asked
What does the largest disclosed round look like versus the rest of the funded set?
Cansortium’s $97M (2024-11-26) is the only disclosed round in a markedly higher bracket than the next-largest disclosed amounts visible in the listing, such as Eli’s $12M (2025-06-10) and LEEF Brands’ $11M (2025-12-05). Meanwhile, the smallest disclosed round is just $10K for Jointly (2026-05-14), creating a wide disclosed range.
Are there time clusters in the most recent 50 entries?
Yes. Activity is concentrated in the late-2025 to mid-2026 window, with the newest round dated 2026-06-18 (June Health, $2M) and many entries landing between 2026-03 and 2026-06 (e.g., Common Wealth $9M on 2026-04-13; Travel Alberta $6M on 2026-04-20). The oldest row shown is 2023-05-11 (Hempsana, $900K), indicating that the list spans multiple quarters but is densest near the top.
Do certain cities dominate this community and lifestyle cohort?
Toronto shows repeated representation across different years and amounts, including June Health ($2M on 2026-06-18), Common Wealth ($9M on 2026-04-13), Sprout Family ($1M on 2025-03-17), Phoenix Health ($35M on 2025-03-13), and Sol Global investments ($570K on 2026-01-21). Calgary also appears more than once (Travel Alberta $6M on 2026-04-20; Calgary Life Church $10K on 2024-05-01; Calgary Economic Development $3M on 2023-08-01).
What stage information is missing, and does it skew comparisons?
Stage visibility is limited: 18 of 50 entries are labeled “Series Unknown,” and 4 are “undisclosed.” This is material for sizing patterns by stage, since prominent high-dollar rounds are sometimes captured with less specific labels (e.g., Tourism Industry Association of Canada is “Series Unknown” at $580K on 2026-06-01, while Actua is “undisclosed” on 2025-02-25).
Which entries are outliers worth a closer look beyond just deal size?
Aside from size, the list contains an extreme low-end outlier at $10K (Jointly on 2026-05-14), contrasting with multi-million rounds clustered elsewhere. On the high end, Cansortium’s $97M (2024-11-26) stands apart from the many sub-$10M rounds (e.g., Zoo de Granby $350K on 2023-08-03; Avant $4M on 2023-07-17), making those dates and companies the clearest starting points for follow-up.
