Ontario cannabis stores: 1,800+ AGCO-authorized shops

Where the stores cluster, and what delivery can mean

Verdex counts 154 stores in Toronto proper, then Scarborough (71), Mississauga (66), North York (65), Ottawa (64), London (63) and Hamilton (63), with Windsor at 48. That density means walking distance to several shops in most of Toronto, so the differences that matter are hours, pickup and delivery rather than whether a store exists. Budders on Dundas Street West in Mississauga advertises same-day local delivery and price matching, and Budbar Express on Wilson Avenue lists 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. hours.

• Delivery: since March 15, 2022 an authorized store may offer curbside pickup and delivery, but only with its own employees, between 9 a.m. and 11 p.m., to a private place in Ontario. Third-party couriers are not allowed, and a store may not operate mainly as a delivery business, according to the AGCO.
• Location: the AGCO cannot authorize a store within 150 metres of a school.
• Prices: each store sets its own. The Ontario Cannabis Store is the sole wholesaler and the only legal online seller, so the same products appear on every shelf.

The market is large and still moving. According to the Ontario Cannabis Store, authorized stores sold more than 441 million grams and about $2.28 billion of cannabis in 2025. Because stores open and close all the time, our list and the AGCO map will not match exactly; confirm a shop on the map before you drive across town.
