Miguel Martin has his work cut out for him just weeks into his new job as Aurora Cannabis Inc.'s chief executive.

York Regional Police say a 57-year-old man is facing charges after a new Pride rainbow crosswalk was vandalized by black spray paint, marking the second time the installation was targeted.

The Edmonton-based cannabis company said the layoffs will amount to a one-quarter workforce reduction in select countries and in a regional office.

The statement of claim filed in Calgary on June 16 accuses the companies of failing to properly label their products and alleges negligence on their part.

Emergency crews were called to a residence on Vines Place, in the Bayview Avenue and Vandorf Sideroad area, in Aurora, Ont., at around 8:41 p.m. Thursday.

Police said all of the fires were reported between 4 a.m. and 5 a.m. and are believed to have been intentionally set.

"We could have died if the car wasn't parked and we were driving, if our daughters were in the back seat," says Marisa Fabroa of Aurora.

The Special Investigations Unit say their investigation started in August when a woman from Aurora, Ont., called in to make a complaint.

Aurora Cannabis says it incurred a loss in its second quarter that was fuelled by a recent $1-billion writedown taken by the company.

The moves are part of a restructuring.
