On Friday morning, OCS held a confidential teleconference with retailers hosted by Ontario Cannabis Store President and CEO David Lobo, which was monitored by the National Post.
As soon as the cyberattack was detected Friday night, Lobo said Domain Logistics immediately pulled the plug until a full investigation could take place.Article contentWhile the cyberattack left both consumer and wholesale orders in limbo, a limited number of deliveries, Lobo said, are being processed manually.
Lobo said plans for 24-hour deliveries were scuttled after retailers objected — but maintained expanded delivery windows will help clear backlogs. “We did out best to make sure that we were communicating to those stores with Saturday deliveries,” he said, as well as other retailers expecting stock deliveries throughout the weekend into early this week.Article contentOther options, like allowing retailers to pick up orders from OCS’s distribution centre, weren’t feasible.
The whole cannabis industry is a shining example of how a government can bring an industry to its knees, to control it, and suck as much blood out as possible, simply to line their friends greedy pockets. The only reason they care about the black market, is missed tax revenue.
What the Gpvernment is doing is wrong and is unacceptable.
