about City Cannabis Co.
Is there an age requirement for entering the store or purchasing cannabis?
While the federal Cannabis Act sets the age requirement at 18, each Province has the authority to raise the minimum age requirement. In British Columbia, the minimum age required to purchase, possess, or consume cannabis is 19. Guests must be 19 years and older to be in the store.
What do I need to purchase cannabis?
Two pieces of ID is required to verify guests are 19 years and older. The first must be a government-issued photo ID that includes your legal name and date of birth. The second must include your name, photo, and/or signature.
Why have the pricing and packaging of cannabis changed?
The BC Liquor Distribution Branch (BCLDB) is the sole wholesale distributor of legal recreational cannabis, and purchases exclusively from government-approved suppliers.

Products are manufactured, stored and distributed by Health Canada-approved suppliers, according to strict industry-wide regulations under the Cannabis Act. Cannabis products arrive at our locations in sealed packaging with standardized labels and amounts.
I can’t find a specific strain. Do you still carry it?
As a fully legal cannabis store, we are only able to order products available through provincial wholesale distribution.
