When shareholders of Empower Clinics woke up this morning, they were greeted with a stock halt pending news from the company.

After a full day of waiting, Empower made the following announcement after the close:

"Empower Clinics Announces COVID-19 Referral Agreement with Major Canadian Airline"

To say the reaction from shareholders was a happy one is a major understatement.  Message boards across all platforms lit up with both overwhelming excitement and opinions as to the identity of the "Major Canadian Airline" (the MCA). 

Most importantly, with some shareholders experiencing a little crisis of confidence due to recent market weakness, today's news served to re-energize them by reminding what CEO Steve McAuley and his team are capable of doing at any time. 

Given the importance of the news, we sat down with McAuley at midnight EST to discuss the following:

* Who Is The MCA?

* Is Empower In Similar Discussions With Other Major Airlines?

* When Does The Program Begin And What Are Empower's Expectations?

* Is Empower In Similar Discussions With Other Major Brands (non-airlines)?

As always, McAuley doesn't disappoint with his transparency and confidence.
