I need some clarity.

So NAC/Meta is trying to partner with Second Cup (SCU) in am attempt to penetrate the Ontario market. The Second Cup is owned by the Surreya family who are also major shareholders with APH and LHS.

Now.........

The Serruya family also just invested with Aleifa (ALEF) to develop another cannabis retail chain called "One Plant" https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2018/09/25/1575543/0/en/Aleafia-and-Serruya-Family-to-Enter-Cannabis-Retail-Joint-Venture-for-Launch-of-One-Plant.html

So is the Serruya family trying to dominate the retail landscape by owning two seperate retail chains?

Is their a chance APH simply purchase NAC as their own seperate entity retail chain?

MOST IMPORTANTLY: Could Alefia interupt NAC\Meta's chance if partnering with Second Cup and steal Second Cup for themselves?

Thoughts?
