More Canadians buying legal cannabis as marijuana industry turns two
As Canada’s legal cannabis industry turns two on Oct. 17, 2020, many stores across the country are celebrating a jump in sales, with one retail expert saying the …
The government in B.C. has done a horrible job of not opening any dispensary’s in major surburan cities but liquor stores are becoming more available at your local Safeway. Plus your charging way more than what people buy in the street. Not a great combination for getting people who use to buy from a legal store
Yeah, but when I go to the gov’t stuff, it’s dry and crumbly, I don’t need to grind it, cause I can crush it into powder with my fingers. There’s no joy in inspecting the flowering buds which the plant grew, or appreciating the fresh scent
"Legal is cheaper than black market" And it also is worse quality than the black market. And if it is more on the black market then you don't know know where to look.
They're trying to keep you HIGH while they SHUT DOWN your economy and take your rights. Behind the smiling FAKE FACE of political-loser liberals and democrats is sinister evil you couldn't even imagine in your wildest nightmares. They will take your MONEY, rights, freedoms, and put you out of your misery once it's too late to fight back.
Street market will never die…and if you live in Canada and are not growing..your a fool. …4 plants can give you enough.crop 3 times a yr…and Google chs and cannabis..u may not want to smoke legal cannabis. I thought I had stomach cancer from legal state cannabis.
It’s too bad the weed blows….Prices are too high for the quality…..Promote Black Market,Its so much better overall………… The legal Cheap Weed is still Twice the price of Black Mkt….Screw Government Schwag
7 dollar pot is crap compared to 8 dollar black market pot , very misleading story , the gov't pot is full of wasted packaging .. it's incredible the waste , black market is in a baggie very little waste… if you want really good gov't pot it's 12 – 15 / gram compared to $10/gram on the black market …never trust the gov't or the brainwashing media
It’s illegal… No wait, it’s essential… No, wait, some of it is illegal and some of it essential… No, wait… Would we allow the government to tell us who we can and can’t buy broccoli from?
I'm glad they mentioned the price dynamic in play in the market, but I felt this was a really dumb down reporting. There was an article a few months ago talking about this, but they mentioned how these legal producers are not actually making any money – they're actually burning cash to lower their pricing on the lower brand names in the hope of increasing their market share from the black market.
Basically, lazy and incomplete analysis. If you're reading this comment, look for that article, it gives a good analysis of what to expect with this industry
This crap should be free!
The government becomes a drug dealer!? Ow…
That’s cute.
