Vancouver-based Kiaro is readying to open a legal cannabis store at 1316 Kingsway in Vancouver by August 1 now that the B.C. government has granted it a licence to operate.
Why it matters: There has been a slow roll-out of legal cannabis stores in a city where most stores are illegal, but Kiaro has one of 10 licences that the province has granted in Vancouver so far.
Old Faithful Shop, a Gastown-based lifestyle store, is asking for the help of the public after their window was kicked in by an unknown suspect.
The retailer announced that it has received its licence to operate a cannabis retail store in Whitehorse, Yukon from the Yukon Liquor Corporation, Cannabis Licensing.
Upon opening, this will be the 24th Fire & Flower branded, licensed cannabis store and will be located at #110, 80 Chilkoot Way, Whitehorse, Yukon.
