You gonna try pot or be a square? Block’s next endeavour

Sept 20 (Reuters) – Square, a unit of fintech company Block Inc (SQ.N), said on Wednesday it would enter the Canadian cannabis market through a partnership with e-commerce platform Jane Technologies.

The payments processing firm — founded by Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter (now known as X) — said it would launch an early access program in the Ontario province for licensed dispensaries to test its retail point-of-sale offerings.
