Need to get damn border open again
Need to get damn border open againLost out on so much sales with all the tourists that visit Canada. Previously assisted in managing ontario tourism account. In 2019 canada had 22 million visitors. 15 million from the US alone. That is crazy when you consider we only have 33 million people here. Last year huge amount of sales missed out on from visitors to Ontario summer events that regularly attract over 1 million people. Last year it was during a time when marijuana was not legal in NYC, Michigan, Illinois etc...Shane to have missed oUT on all those tourist dollars. We would have been like the Amsterdam of NA. Industry will still benefit from tourism when border opens up. Illinois legal industry fairly new and they selling 108 million worth of rec cannabis compared to about 90 million in Ontario and we have about 2 million more people. They sure do like their weed south of the border.
