OCS : https://ocs.ca
Ontario Cannabis Store. 1 of 10 Provinces and 3 Territories in Canada. Similar to the American State Government. Ontario is the largest population and provincial GDP in Canada, followed by Quebec and Alberta. Ontario is currently an e-commerce only market for Recreational Cannabis, with Retail outlets set to be regulated April, 2019, and the Province is the only legal distributor through this web site. Alberta currently has a two pronged system, e-commerce and retail, with both provincial and private distribution allowed. On L day at 00:30, I placed an order on the OCS, and I’ve still yet to receive a delivery tracking number from the distribution. My order was in the 12k’s out of a total of ~100k that day. Since then, hundreds of thousands of orders ha e been placed ( I’m not sure what the total is as of today ). The Mail courier Canada Post ( crown corporation) has begun taking job action strikes this week and has added to delays in mail delivery. This , along with delays from the Duty Paid Stickers fiasco, means Ontario has seen growing pains in the First week post L-Day. Alberta on the other hand, I walked into a retail outlet, and walked out with my purchase in under 5 minutes.

So that’s the difference on the ground. I’m sure it will all be sorted out. Just seems Ontario is being unnecessarily sluggish in the roll out. Everything in its time.
