West Coast for freshest made, but it's a grey area for shipping within Canada. It depends on your Province's regulations.

Support local.

I know all the weed I consume is grown locally... in my back yard.

Due to a treaty we signed lomg before legalization, no weed comes in rom outside of canada legally.

Like 90% sure there's no legal international marijuana trade. Hell probably not much illegal since it's a bulky and smelly product in comparison to other drugs.

It's all Canadian. While certain states in the U.S. like Colorado have legalized it, because it's still illegal on the federal level, importing from the U.S. is just about impossible.

Yeah right, because of all the walls and boarder patrol checks between state lines /s

I hella wanna see someone recreate that Cheech and Chong movie where they made an entire car out of weed to smuggle the weed.

Here in Ontario at least, it's all Canadian.

Just a guess, but I think that since in the US weed is still illegal at the federal level, I'd bet that weed can't be exported. So i think it's a safe bet that no legal weed in Canada came from the US

The cannabis is Canadian by law but many of our cannabis producers are owned by American companies so you still need to check the brands and research their parent companies

Ohh, that's a good point!

Wouldn't it be pretty much everything? It's still federally illegal here in the states so it can't go over the border even if made in a legal state. If you're not buying off the black market but at a dispensary, I'm pretty sure you're not going to be buying American imported weed.
