Retail cannabis licence moratorium lifted by AGLC!
Retail cannabis licence moratorium lifted by AGLC! nobody noticed? INFORMATION BULLETIN Retail cannabis licence moratorium lifted May 30, 2019 Due to a steady increase in AGLCs cannabis supply, the moratorium on accepting new retail licence applications and issuing new retail licences has been lifted. Lifting the moratorium supports economic development and the success of Albertas budding cannabis industry. AGLC will continue to monitor the supply to ensure that retailers continue to receive adequate inventory. In order to ensure that Albertas existing and new retailers have a consistent amount of product, AGLC will be issuing five licences on a weekly basis. Should the stability of inventory take a drastic downturn, AGLC will evaluate reinstating the moratorium. Currently, AGLC has contracts with 26 federally licensed producers from across the country and will work with any federally licensed producers that meet regulatory requirements. AGLC is responsible for regulating private retail cannabis, the distribution of cannabis and operation of the provinces online cannabis store (AlbertaCannabis.org) on behalf of the Alberta government. For more than 20 years, AGLC has been a regulatory leader in the management of Albertas gaming and liquor industries. Our commitment to integrity and offering choices Albertans can trust continues as our responsibilities expand to include cannabis. https://aglc.ca/news/retail-cannabis-licence-moratorium-lifted
