Canopy Rivers Announces DTC Eligibility


NOT FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES OR THROUGH U.S. NEWSWIRES

TORONTO, Dec. 19, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Canopy Rivers Inc. (the "Company" or "Canopy Rivers") (TSXV: RIV) is pleased to announce that its shares have received DTC full service eligibility in the United States. The Company's identifier is "CNPOF".

DTC settlement services provide a more efficient and lower cost settlement process for investors and brokers trading Canadian securities in the United States.  DTC eligibility enables shares of Canopy Rivers to be distributed, settled and serviced through DTC's automated processes, thereby taking advantage of the efficiencies created in the electronic method of clearing securities and the resulting cost benefits that DTC provides through accelerated settlement processes.
