Customers line up at Ontario’s first legal cannabis stores

Customers lined up to purchase pot at Ontario’s first brick-and-mortar cannabis stores on Monday, but fewer than half of the province’s government-licensed outlets were ready to open.

Recreational cannabis has so far only been available for purchase legally in Ontario through a government-run website. Although cannabis retailers across Canada have faced product shortages since legalization last October, Gawri said his store has received everything it ordered. When asked whether he was worried about running out of product in the coming days, he said, “it’s hard to say.”

Jackes, 67, who is a medicinal cannabis user, said the overall experience at the shop was good, but he said the prices were too high. Nichols said he hopes legalization pushes cannabis out of the shadows and lifts some of the stigma around it.Shop owner David Nguyen said he was happy to have been one of the few shops in the province to open doors on Monday. The word “finally” — spelled out in gold balloons — decorated one store wall.
