RCMP say they received a tip that drugs were being illegally trafficked out of the facility. Two individuals were arrested but later released as part of the closure.
A dispensary spokesperson says he’s disappointed with the closure, and that the goal was to provide medical cannabis. and not have it used for recreational use.
As of now, marijuana store-fronts are illegal in Canada.
