Look up a licenseHow cannabis is sold in North Bay
North Bay has 16 stores in our list for a city of under 60,000 people, and it was one of four northern Ontario cities with more than 50,000 residents that could host the region's first stores in 2019, according to CBC.
For a driver coming down Highway 11 or 17, the shape is one busy road and a scatter around it.
- Start on Algonquin Avenue.
Budssmoke is at 1236, Happy Life at 1307 and Fire & Flower at 2021. - Downtown is one stop.
A second Budssmoke is at 177 Main Street W. - Edge options.
Cannabis Jacks is on Cassells Street and Golden Harvest on Highway 17 W. The two Cheerful Charlie's branches are at 14 Osprey Miikan Road and 35 Beaucage Park Road. - Phone first.
Ontario lets stores open from 7 am to 11 pm but does not require it, according to the AGCO.
Distance beats brand here
In a northern city the difference between two stores is often a drive, not a block, so pick the one on your route. None of the 16 has a full profile yet, and each is matched to the AGCO register; check the licence guide if a sign looks off. For anything province-wide, see Ontario.
