Summary

More than a year after federal cannabis legalization came into force, West Kelowna finally has a legal dispensary to call its own. The 1,200 sq. ft. licensed pot shop features a variety of dried flower, prerolls, oils and newly legal edibles. We also still have employees waiting to have their licensing approved [to be legally permitted to work at the shop].” But Adams’ store might soon be facing some stiff competition. Although the final decision won’t be made until 2020, the potential BC Cannabis store, along with a distribution centre, would set up shop with a staff of 20 West Kelownans with a passion for pot. For now, however, the city’s weed enthusiasts can rest easy knowing that between the hours of 9 am and 11 pm, they’re never more than a short trip away from copping some legal cannabis.
