Premier Doug Ford speaks to the media outside of his office, in the Ontario Legislature, in Toronto, on Nov. 21, 2019.Premier Doug Ford says his government is still working toward its commitment to an open cannabis retail system, and more stores will be opening in the new year.
The Progressive Conservative government had initially said there would be no cap on the number of retail pot shops after cannabis was legalized. But a supply shortage prompted the Tories to move to a lottery system, capping the initial number of pot retail licences to just 25, and later holding a second lottery for 42 more.BNN Bloomberg reports today that the government is looking to scrap the lottery system and move toward an open allocation system as early as January.
Ford says he believes in letting the market dictate how many stores can be supported, now that there is enough supply.
Really Like you open Ontario to business LoL
Believe if when I see it. Fat Boy Ford was hoping Scheer would win and go back to the old way of things.
Guess with all the perceived persecution complexes around more pot may help to mellow out. Either that or join the Hemlock Society to end one's life. Long live Socrates's spirit. ...............................................
Finally, something in which he has some expertise! And, he will, no doubt, continue to benefit from the distribution of this cannabis.
Should prove to assist his daughter’s business no doubt
