DESCRIPTION AND OVERVIEW OF BUSINESS

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. is a publicly listed company currently listed on the NEX division of the TSX Venture Exchange (“TSXV”), currently trading under the symbol “CQV.H”.

On April 2, 2019, the Company entered into a business combination agreement (the “Agreement”) with Ikänik Farms, Inc. (“Ikänik”) (formerly Cannus Partners, Inc.) and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, 11326937 Canada Inc. (“Newco”), formed for the purpose of completing the amalgamation. Ikänik is an arm’s length company incorporated under the Canada Business Corporations Act and is a vertically integrated cannabis cultivator, producer, distributor and dispensary operator that is building out its “seed to sale” business.

Pursuant to the Agreement, the Company has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding securities of Ikänik and the business of Ikänik by way of a three-cornered amalgamation (the “Transaction”) between the Company, Ikänik and Newco pursuant to the provisions of the Canada Business Corporations Act. The Transaction will result in a reverse takeover of the Company by the security holders of Ikänik. Prior to the completion of the Transaction, the Company will designate its common shares as subordinate voting shares (the “Resulting Issuer SV Shares”) and create a new class of Series A compressed multiple voting shares (the “Resulting Issuer Series A Shares”, together with the Resulting Issuer SV Shares, the “Resulting Issuer Shares”). Each Resulting Issuer Series A Share will have the economic and voting rights equivalent to 100 times the Resulting Issuer SV Shares, and shall be convertible into or exchangeable for the Resulting Issuer SV Shares on the terms and conditions to be determined by Ikänik. The Company will consolidate its existing shares on a ratio to be mutually agreed upon by the Company and Ikänik such that immediately prior to the closing of the Transaction, there will be an aggregate of 9,500,000 common shares of the Company issued and outstanding on a post-consolidation basis, which will be redesignated into Resulting Issuer Shares such that shareholders of the Company will own 9,500,000 Resulting Issuer Shares.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, it is anticipated that Newco and Ikänik will amalgamate to form a single subsidiary of the Company. In consideration for the cancellation of all outstanding securities of Ikänik upon completion of the Transaction, the security holders of Ikänik will receive:

• (i) one Resulting Issuer SV Share for each common share of Ikänik (each, a “Ikänik Common Share”);

• (ii) one Resulting Issuer Series A Share for each Series A compressed share of Ikänik (each, a “Ikänik Series A Share”);

• (iii) one option to purchase Resulting Issuer Shares for each option to purchase Ikänik Common Shares (each, an “Ikänik Common Option”) on the same terms and conditions as each Ikänik Common Option;

• 1 -

• (iv) one option to purchase Resulting Issuer Series A Shares for each option to purchase Ikänik Series A Shares (each, a “Ikänik Series A Option”) on the same terms and conditions as each Ikänik Series A Option;

• (v) one purchase warrant for Resulting Issuer SV Shares for each purchase warrant for Ikänik Common Shares (each, a “Ikänik Common Warrant”) on the same terms and conditions as each Ikänik Common Warrant;

• (vi) one purchase warrant for Resulting Issuer Series A Shares for each purchase warrant for Ikänik Series A Shares (each, a “Ikänik Series A Warrant”) on the same terms and conditions as each Ikänik Series A Warrant; and,

• (vii) one broker warrant for Resulting Issuer SV Shares for each broker right to purchase Ikänik Common Shares (each, a “Ikänik Broker Right”) on the same terms and conditions as each Ikänik Broker Right.

Completion of the Transaction is subject to a number of conditions, such as working capital and cash position requirements for the Company, including Ikänik having to complete a financing, receipt of all necessary shareholder and regulatory approvals, the execution of related transaction documents, approval of the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSXV”) for the delisting of the common shares of the Company from the TSXV and conditional approval of the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) for the listing of the Resulting Issuer SV Shares following completion of the Transaction.

Certain securities issued in connection with the Transaction may be subject to the escrow requirements of the CSE, mutually agreed upon escrow conditions and lock-up periods as required by the CSE and applicable securities laws.

Over the last few years, junior companies such as Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. have faced significant challenges due to the lack of funds, prevailing market conditions and the inability to raise additional working capital. As the Company received proceeds of $179,112 on the exercise if 1,432,895 warrants during the year,

these proceeds were used to settle the various liabilities of the Company which overall, had an impact on the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Financial Position during the year.

General and administration costs can also vary year-to-year depending on the level of activity during the year.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Loss for the year

The Company reported a net loss and comprehensive loss of $360,413 for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2019 compared to a loss of $206,251 for the fiscal year ended November 30, 2018.

The Company incurred consulting fees of $185,381 and $74,774 for the twelve month periods ended November 30, 2019 and 2018 respectively. The increased cost can be attributed to fees paid to a third party consultant to help the Company with the business combination agreement with Ikänik.

Professional fees were $106,708 for the twelve month period ended November 30, 2019 compared to costs of $131,843 the twelve month period ended November 30, 2018. The professional fees incurred during the year can be general attributed to the legal costs associated with the business combination agreement with Ikänik transaction. Other professional fees incurred during the year can be attributed to auditing and accounting fees. The lower costs can be generally attributed to lower accounting related fees incurred during the year.

The Company incurred transfer agent and filing fees of $68,037 for the twelve month period ended November 30, 2019 compared to fees of $11,643 for the twelve month period ended November 30, 2018. The increased costs during the current year can be attributed to the mail out for the Company’s Annual General and Special Meeting.

Total assets

The change in total assets over the three year period from 2017-2019 is largely the result of changes in the cash balance.

Total assets of the Company were $197,657 as at November 30, 2019 compared to assets of $320,250 as at November 30, 2018.

The decrease in assets can be largely attributed to the reduction in the Company’s cash balance. The Company had cash balances of $196,485 and $311,471 as at November 30, 2019 and 2018 respectively. During the year, the Company’s funds were predominantly used in connection with the Ikänik transaction for various consulting and professional related fees.

During the twelve month period ended November 30, 2019, the Company realized proceeds of $179,112 on the exercise of 1,432,895 warrants.

Total liabilities

As at November 30, 2019, the current liabilities of the Company were $128,898 compared to $70,190 as at November 30, 2018. The Company’s current liabilities as at November 30, 2019 are primarily related to professional and consulting fees.

SUMMARY OF QUARTERLY RESULTS

The following table summarizes information derived from the Company’s financial statements for each of the eight most recently completed quarters:

			Net loss

(1) Fully diluted loss per share amounts are not shown as they would be anti-dilutive.

It is the nature of many junior companies that there are no sales or revenue. There can be significant variances in the Company’s reported loss from quarter-to-quarter arising from factors that are difficult to anticipate in advance or to predict from past results. The Company is actively finalizing the Ikänik transaction. Consulting and professional fees will vary from period to period as the Company concludes the transaction.

General and administration costs can also vary quarter-to-quarter depending on the nature of the expenditure and if the Company has the available resources to fund these activities.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. did not generate any cash flow from operations. The Company’s financial success relies on management’s ability to continue to identify and evaluate assets or a business with a view to completing a transaction subject to receipt of shareholder approval and acceptance by regulatory authorities. Future cash flows from operations will be dependent on maximizing the potential of these opportunities.

In order to finance the acquisition of assets or a business and corporate overhead, the Company has historically been dependent on investor sentiment remaining positive towards the junior companies, and towards Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. in particular, so that funds can be raised through the sale of the Company’s securities. Many factors have an influence on investor sentiment, including a positive climate from investors to support junior companies, a company’s track record and the experience and calibre of a company’s management. There is no certainty that equity funding will be available at the times and in the amounts required to fund the Company’s activities. Note 1 of the Company’s 2019 audited consolidated financial statements further discusses the going concern issue. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from these uncertainties.

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. has in the past, financed its activities through equity and loan financings. It is anticipated as general sentiment towards junior companies turn positive, the Company can raise the necessary capital to secure and finance the acquisition of assets or a business. See “Description and Overview of Business” section for details relating to the Transaction.

Debt financing has been used to finance general operating expenses, but has not been used to fund asset and business acquisitions, and the Company has no current plans to use such financing. There are no other sources of financing that have been arranged by the Company.

The Company’s working capital for the periods ended November 30, 2019 was $68,759 compared to a working capital of $250,060 for the period ended November 30, 2018. The decrease can be attributed to the use of cash during the current year for expenditures incurred.

• 4 -

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS For the year ended November 30, 2019

The Company has no commitments for capital expenditures.

Cash and Financial Conditions

The Company had a cash balance of $196,485 as at November 30, 2019 as compared to a cash balance of $311,471 as at November 30, 2018.

The decrease in cash for the year can be attributed to the payment of expenditures as incurred.

The Company does not have any unused lines of credit or other arrangements in place to borrow funds and has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. does not use hedges or other financial derivatives.

Financing Activities

During the year ended November 30, 2019, 1,432,895 warrants were exercised and converted into common shares for total proceeds of $179,112.

During the year ending November 30, 2018, the Company had completed a private placement for gross proceeds of $1,045,000. These funds were raised by the Company issuing 11,000,000 units at a price of $0.095 per unit; each unit consisted of one common share and one share purchase warrant which entitled the holder to acquire one additional share at a price of $0.125 for a period of 12 months. In connection with the private placement, the Company incurred issuance costs of $7,389.

During the twelve month periods ending November 30, 2019 and 2018, the Company repaid loans totalling $3,500 and $127,500 respectively to various third and related parties.

No options were exercised during the twelve month periods ending November 30, 2019 and 2018.

OUTLOOK

It is anticipated that in the continued and foreseeable future, Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. will rely on the equity markets to meet its financing needs. Should cash flow build through its business operations, the Company will be in a position to finance other initiatives from cash flow.

Without continued external funding to pursue and finance any business opportunities, there is substantial doubt as to the Company’s ability to operate as a going concern. Although Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. has been successful in raising funds to date, there can be no assurance that additional funding will be available in the future. The financial statements do not reflect the adjustments to the carrying values of assets and liabilities that would be necessary if the Company were unable to achieve successful business results or obtain adequate financing.

Management and the Board of Directors continuously review and examine business proposals for the Company and conduct their due diligence in respect of the same.

OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENTS

At the date of this report, the Company had no off-balance sheet arrangements.

PROPOSED TRANSACTIONS

See “Description and Overview of Business” for details of the proposed Transaction with Ikänik Farms, Inc.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The Company makes estimates and judgments about the future that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities. Estimates and judgments are continually evaluated based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. In the future, actual experience may differ from these estimates and assumptions.

The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized prospectively by including it in comprehensive income in the year of the change, if the change affects that year only, or in the year of the change and future years, if the change affects both.

Information about critical estimates and judgments in applying accounting policies that have the most significant risk of causing material adjustment to the financial statements are discussed below.

Critical judgments

The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make judgments regarding the going concern of the Company as discussed in Note 1 of the Company’s November 30, 2019 annual audited consolidated financial statements

Key sources of estimation uncertainty

Income taxes

Significant judgment is required in determining the provision for income taxes. There are many transactions and calculations undertaken during the ordinary course of business for which the ultimate tax determination is uncertain. The Company recognizes liabilities and contingencies for anticipated tax audit issues based on the Company’s current understanding of the tax law. For matters where it is probable that an adjustment will be made, the Company records its best estimate of the tax liability including the related interest and penalties in the current tax provision. Management believes they have adequately provided for the probable outcome of

• 7 -

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS For the year ended November 30, 2019

these matters; however, the final outcome may result in a materially different outcome than the amount included in the tax liabilities.

In addition, the Company recognizes deferred tax assets relating to tax losses carried forward to the extent that it is probable that taxable profit will be available against which a deductible temporary difference can be utilized. This is deemed to be the case when there are sufficient taxable temporary differences relating to the same taxation authority and the same taxable entity which are expected to reverse in the same year as the expected reversal of the deductible temporary difference, or in years into which a tax loss arising from the deferred tax asset can be carried back or forward. However, utilization of the tax losses also depends on the ability of the taxable entity to satisfy certain tests at the time the losses are recouped.

New standards, interpretations and amendments

• IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments – Effective December 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 9. See Note 3 (b) on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the impact of the transition to IFRS 9.

• IFRS 15 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers – New standard to establish principles for reporting the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from an entity’s contracts with customers, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2018. Effective December 1, 2018, the Company adopted IFRS 15. IFRS 15 had no impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the Company did not recognize any revenue during the year.

New standards and interpretations not yet adopted

Certain new standards, interpretations, amendments and improvements to existing standards were issued by the IASB or IFRIC that are mandatory for accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. Updates which are not applicable or are not consequential to the Company have been excluded thereof. The following have not yet been adopted by the Company.

• IFRS 16 – Leases: New standard to establish principles for recognition, measurement, presentation and disclosure of leases with an impact on lessee accounting, effective for annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2019. As the Company does not have any lease commitments, no impact is expected on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

• IFRIC 23 – Uncertainty over Income Tax Treatment: New standard to clarify the accounting for uncertainties in income taxes. The interpretation provides guidance and clarifies the application of the recognition and measurement criteria in IAS 12 “Income Taxes” when there is uncertainty over income tax treatments. The interpretation is effective for annual periods beginning on January 1, 2019. The adoption of this standard is not expected to have a significant impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND RISK FACTORS

The Company determines the fair value of financial instruments according to the following hierarchy based on the amount of observable inputs used to value the instrument.

The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – Inputs that are not based on observable market data.

• 8 -

Canadian Imperial Venture Corp. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS For the year ended November 30, 2019

The fair value of the Company’s amounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and due to related party approximate their carrying value, which is the amount recorded on the statement of financial position, due to their short term nature. The Company’s cash is measured at fair value, under the fair value hierarchy based on level 1 quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

The Company’s risk exposures and the impact on the Company’s financial instruments are summarized below:

Credit risk

Credit risk is the risk of loss associated with a counterparty’s inability to fulfill its payment obligations. The Company believes it has no significant credit risk. Amounts receivable consists of input tax credits receivable from the Government of Canada and are not subject to significant credit risk.

Liquidity risk

The Company’s approach to managing liquidity risk is to ensure that it will have sufficient liquidity to meet liabilities when due. As at November 30, 2019, the Company had a cash balance of $196,485 to settle current liabilities of $128,898. The Company expects to fund future liabilities through the issuance of capital stock. See Note 1 for discussion of going concern risk.

Market risk

Market risk is the risk of loss that may arise from changes in market factors such as interest rates and commodity and equity prices.

a) Interest rate risk

The Company has cash balances which are not at a significant risk to fluctuating interest rates. The Company’s current policy is to invest excess cash in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates issued by its banking institutions. The Company periodically monitors the investments it makes and is satisfied with the credit ratings of its banks. As at November 30, 2019, the Company did not have any investments in investment-grade short-term deposit certificates.

b) Price risk

The Company is exposed to price risk with respect to equity prices. Equity price risk is defined as the potential adverse impact on the Company’s earnings due to movements in individual equity prices or general movements in the level of the stock market.

c) Foreign currency risk

The Company operates in Canada and is not exposed to any significant foreign currency risk.
