Canada Coal Evaluating Opportunities in Medical Marijuana

Canada Coal Inc. (the "Company" or "Canada Coal"), (OTCBB:CDCLF) (TSX
VENTURE:CCK) announces in further to its press release of March 27th, 2014 that
it is currently exploring potential business opportunities in the Medical
Marijuana field. 


Canada Coal has 43,449,750 shares issued and outstanding with 52,411,725 fully
diluted. The Company has approximately $2,000,000 in cash and receivables
equating to approximately $0.05 per share and no debt.


This emerging billion dollar industry is currently undergoing significant
regulatory and legal reform that has created exciting growth opportunities. The
current Medical Marijuana industry is highly fragmented with significant changes
recently enacted by Health Canada which will likely consolidate growers into
larger commercial operations. Canada Coal is reviewing business opportunities
with a goal to obtain operations that have been granted "Licensed Producer"
status under the new Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR).


The new MMPR license will allow for producers to grow on a larger, commercial
scale. Health Canada states, "The Government of Canada introduced the new
Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations which were published in Canada
Gazette, Part II on June 19, 2013. The new regulations aim to treat marijuana as
much as possible like any other narcotic used for medical purposes by creating
conditions for a new, commercial industry that is responsible for its production
and distribution."

The older Marijuana Medical Access Program (MMAP) was scheduled to end on March
31, 2014 but has been extend until further notice. This is also the date that
all Authorizations to Possess, Personal-Use Production Licenses and
Designated-Person Production Licenses were set to expire. As of April 1, 2014,
the only legal access to marijuana for medical purposes will be through licensed
producers under the Marijuana for Medical Purposes Regulations (MMPR), even if
you have an authorization to possess or a license to produce that has a later
date. (http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/dhp-mps/marihuana/index-eng.php)
