CALGARY (660 NEWS) – Alberta, Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) has said the supply of most marijuana products in the province has run out.
The AGLC said it ordered enough product to support up to 250 retail stores in the first six months of legalization; however, as of yesterday, it only received 20 per cent of what they had ordered.
They said producers are working with Health Canada to receive their licenses and increase the amount of product available across the country.
Due to the national shortage, AGLC is temporarily suspending accepting new applications and issuing any additional cannabis retail licenses until further notice.
