The Crown corporation in charge of selling recreational cannabis, the SQDC, says it's not opening any more stores until the government revisits Quebec's marijuana legislation.
That includes a store slated to open last month in front of Montreal's Berri-UQAM Metro station.
The SQDC has a "coming soon" sign hanging in a vacant storefront window on Ste-Catherine Street East, just steps from Place Émilie-Gamelin — a small park known for illegal drug dealing, including black market cannabis, and other illicit activities.
