Trevali (T.TV) CEO Mark Cruise talks to Stockhouse's Chris Parry about the zinc market, an upcoming supply crunch, and how his company has managed to thrive, even in a down market. It's a compelling story, and nobody knows more about zinc than Cruise. Listen in!

CardioComm Solutions, a Canadian med-tech firm based out of

Toronto, Ont, is a provider of innovative device-agnostic software solutions in

the cardiovascular medicine and telemedicine space. The company, currently

trading on the Venture Exchange with the ticker, EKG, is gaining traction and

was just recently highlighted in the Globe and Mail, a well-respected Canadian

national periodical. Part of what is generating this growing interest is the

company’s world-leading proprietary GEMS™ WIN Global ECG Management System and

GEMS™ WIN Air Wireless Global ECG Management System platforms. But that's not the end as this company is setting itself up to disrupt the health and wellness industry with its revolutionary HeartCheck Pen(TM). Listen to find out more in an exclusive interview with company CEO, Etienne Grima.

Oregon-based Golden Leaf Holdings (CSE:C.GLH, Forum) was bringing in a decent $150k in revenues per month

a year ago, selling high quality cannabis extracts to medicinal customers in

its home state. By January, that revenue had doubled. By March it had nearly

doubled again. For the last six months, they’ve been pulling in $1m+

consistently, with that growth only being slowed by the wait for more

extraction machinery.

 

With that machinery starting to land, and Oregon’s legislators

approving fully recreational marijuana use just last week, and a Washington

State expansion in the works, the company couldn’t possibly have picked a

better time to go public.

 

With revenues that dwarf just about all Canadian players,

executives at the CSE-listed US vehicle have every right to be cocky – but

they’re not there yet. CEO Don Robinson likes to refer to his group as the

‘grey hairs’ of the sector, and shares a very detailed, low-risk growth

proposition with Stockhouse readers in this, the latest of our Stockpod

podcasts with junior business leaders.

 

Exactly how big can Golden Leaf get, and with cash rolling

in monthly, how quickly will they get there? Listen on.

Tech has made a major comeback in the Canadian markets. This surge has been the result of a confluence of events, such as

the tanking of commodity prices, and an industry of innovators who just don’t give

up. One of the major supporters of this disruptive sector is the Canadian

Innovation Exchange (“CIX”), a yearly nexus for investors, innovative

companies, entrepreneurs and facilitators looking to push economic growth and

drive the development and implementation of new ideas.

 I got on the phone with CIX organizer Robert Montgomery, CEO

of Achilles Media, to get a deeper picture of CIX and the Canadian tech space. I highly recommend you have a listen.

In this week's episode, we go straight edge (there wasn't any beer in the fridge) and discuss Patient Home Monitoring (V.PHM), Y-dreams, Trevali Mining (T.TV), Endeavour Silver (T.EDR), POET Technologies (V.PTK) and UrtheCast (T.UR).

Transeastern Power Trust (TSX: V.TEP.DB) is an open-ended limited purpose trust focused on a portfolio of operating renewable energy assets meant to provide a stable source of income for investors through consistent dividends. Instead of focusing on the extremely competitive North American markets where valuations are high, Transeastern is concentrating on the European Union’s periphery members, more specifically Romania, where there is scarcity of competition and much lower multiples, about half the price of assets you would find in Canada or the United States. This podcast examines the company and its prospects in more detail.

TransGaming has undergone a transformation that has been in the works for quite some time now since the company demonstrated its newly-developed cloud-based gaming service, GameTree TV™, at the 2013 International CES.  What first began as a hedged offering, morphed into the company’s main focus which until that point concentrated on the company’s noted Virtual OS software, Cider, and the porting of popular video games to multiple OS platforms. I spoke with Dennis Ensing, TransGaming COO Interim CEO, on this transformation and what TransGaming’s potential was with this new focus. I went in an unbeliever, but Dennis managed to change my mind on the company and its proposed direction. This podcast was the result. Have a listen, you won’t be disappointed.

Mark Zekulin, President of Tweed (V.TWD) and Cam Battley, VP of communications and corporate development, talk about Health Canada's recent decision to allow companies to produce and sell medical marijuana bud and oils, as well as Tweed's recent acquisition of Bedrocan (V.BED). It's a good'un.

MGX Minerals (C.XMG) President and CEO Jared Lazerson talks to Stockhouse's Chris Parry about a novel approach to mining, and how his company has grown 250% in a few months while the rest of the market is plummeting.
