OUR IDEAL CANDIDATES HAVE:

We actually have the best cannabis delivery service in Kingston.
Maybe even the world.
Just saying.
Delivery orders must be received 1.5 hours before close on a regular day and 2 hours before close on the day before and after a holiday.
Jennawae Cavion, co-founder and CEO of Calyx + Trichomes in Kingston, said pay-to-play is common in many industries, “but they’re straight up not allowed in Ontario, and I don’t understand why the AGCO and other provinces don’t do anything about it.â€
“It’s a really thin veil,†she said.
“I hope that infrastructure is put into place so this is avoided in the future, because this is not something that we should, as a private sector, be dealing with when we’re dealing with a government entity – we should be able to trust that our data is being taken care of.â€
Employee safety and drivers’ insurance are among the issues retailers must tackle as they prepare to restart the service
The updated rules also ban house brands and in-store advertising
A pair of licensed cannabis stores selling unregulated hemp products has prompted Ontario’s pot regulator to issue a warning to retailers.
McLean would like the province to provide clarity about how long stores will be allowed to offer delivery and curbside pickup as part of the phased reopening of the economy.
“It’s still too slow,†says Calyx + Trichomes Cannabis co-owner Jennawae McLean. “As an owner, I am holding back opening more locations because I quite frankly do not want to go through another year or two holding a lease with that type of uncertainty.â€
In April 2020, Jennawae McLean, owner of Calyx + Trichomes, announced that “she had finally obtained her license.†According to a Global News report. Calyx + Trichomes became Kingston’s third licensed Cannabis retailer.
“We lost in the lottery, not once but twice, but other than that, the lottery was really the only hiccup. Everything else was relatively smooth,†said McLean. “The people at the AGCO and OCS were motivated to help, we submitted our application on Jan 6, 2020 and on Jan 8 they’d already been working on it – they were right on top of it.â€
“We are pretty happy. It’s the best day ever,†said Jennawae McLean, owner of Calyx and Trichomes, a head shop in Kingston’s west end. “This is, basically the worst time to celebrate anything, but it’s at least a little bit of sunshine on a super cloudy month,†she said, referring to the current novel coronavirus crisis.
“They need to get rid of this lottery system and just start approving stores that are ready, because we’ve been ready for inspection since January,†says McLean.
Despite being No. 652 on the waiting list, 420 Kingston owner Jennawae McLean said she is optimistic that her company will eventually get a licence to sell cannabis.
