Maple Leaf Green World Inc.: Update on California MJ Project

CALGARY, ALBERTA - Maple Leaf Green World (TSX VENTURE:MGW) ("Maple Leaf" or the "Company") announces that the two newly designed cold frames announced on October 27, 2015 have arrived at the Company's site. Ground is being levelled to accommodate 4 greenhouses as the Company has determined 2 additional greenhouses will be added on once the growing operation for the first one is streamlined. These 2 greenhouses will be equipped with a lighting system called Induction Lighting System which has been proven that it can reduce lighting cost and increase the yield. Together with the new fertilizing technology we had announced on November 11th, this project will be equipped with the latest technology available nowadays. The growing operation is slated to start right after the greenhouses are erected. A video for the Lighting System and photos of the current site situation will be posted at our old website while the new website is currently under construction.

Closing of Private Placement

The Company confirms the closing of its previously announced non-brokered private placement occurred on November 15, 2016. Gross proceeds of $550,000 were raised under the private placement through the issuance of 11,000,000 Units at a price of $0.05 per Unit. Each Unit was comprised of one common share and one common share purchase warrant. All securities issued pursuant to the private placement are subject to a hold period that will expire on March 16, 2016.

"We are very confident that the California MJ project can produce high yield, low cost, contamination free and high quality marijuana for medical purpose with the latest new technology and expertise we have brought in. Once it is proven successful, we will use the same model in Canada." said Raymond Lai, President & C.E.O. of Maple Leaf.
