BC to allow cannabis home delivery

Staff report
June 18, 2021 12:23am

Licensed cannabis retailers in BC will be able to deliver cannabis directly to consumers starting July 15, 2021.

Licensees can choose to deliver by a vehicle, bike or on foot, but they must ensure product is stored securely during delivery.

Employees delivering product must carry a copy of their CRS licence as identification for law enforcement.

Delivery will be limited to homes only and may only take place between the hours 9 a.m. and 11 p.m., unless these hours are further restricted by the authorities.

A maximum of 30 grams of dried cannabis per transaction will be allowed.

BC is also removing security verification requirements for cannabis workers, which will eliminate delays in hiring and will benefit business owners.

It will also enable legal retailers to hire staff more quickly to implement delivery and will reduce costs for industry and government.

The latest announcement builds on the August 2020 move allowing cannabis retail stores to sell their products online.

“Allowing direct delivery to consumers isn’t just an advantage retailers have told us is vital to the viability of their sector, it’s also a way we can further our public safety goals,” said Mike Farnworth, Minister of Public Safety and Solicitor General.
