The Can’s and Cannot’s of Cannabis Retail
Cannabis became legal in Canada in 2018, and with the new legalization came different laws and regulations for each province and territory. As of June 1, 2020, Manitobans were able to apply for a licence(s) to open their own cannabis retail stores. Although some of these new applicants had robust retail experience, many new candidates were new to the world of retail all together. As a result, landlords have been presented with a mixed bag of prospective cannabis tenants over the last year and a half.
