The owners of a new cannabis shop coming to Gilbert Plains, Man. say their store will be good for the community and help reduce crime, despite concerns from a few local residents.
SASKATOON The city will be taking a closer look at signage rules for pot shops. The move comes after a business looking to open a cannabis retail location in Saskatoon realized its sign violated a city bylaw related to signs at pot stores. Greenery Cannabis Boutique has a marijuana leaf symbol on its sign but the city bylaw says only alpha-numeric characters can be used. On Monday, the company brought its concerns over the issue to the planning, development and community services committee at city hall. During the meeting, the city s licensing and permitting manager Mark Wilson said the signs of two other cannabis retailers operating in the city also violate the rules.
