Ironically Vernon will have fewer pot shops immediately after legalization
Description
September 25, 2018
The country is only three weeks away from the legalization of recreational weed, but in Vernon that won't mean pot is more accessible. Ironically it is expected to get harder to buy weed in the north Okanagan city in the short-term as some existing shops will close, at least temporarily.
