The operators for the province’s 51 cannabis retail store permits have now been selected.
More than two-thirds of these successful applicants are from Saskatchewan or have operations in the province, according to a release from SLGA (Saskatchewan Liqour and Gaming Authority).
In Canora, the successful applicant for the one available permit was Clarity Cannabis Ltd., an Alberta and B.C. business operator, said the release.
“This represents the next step in the process of having a privately-operated cannabis retail system carefully regulated by SLGA,” Minister Responsible for SLGA Gene Makowsky said. “There was a lot of interest in the public Request for Proposal process, resulting in many new businesses that will invest in our province.”
