On April 7, 2020, the Ontario government made an emergency order under the Emergency Management and Civil Protection Act to support the cannabis retail sector through the COVID-19 pandemic, temporarily allowing authorized cannabis retail stores to offer delivery and curbside pick-up.
This emergency order is expiring with the end of Ontario’s Declaration of Emergency on July 24. Authorized cannabis stores will no longer be permitted to offer delivery or curbside pick-up effective 11:59 p.m. on Thursday, July 23.
Although retailers may continue to offer “click and collect” services for the sale of cannabis, accessories and items related to cannabis, customers will be required to pick up all purchases in-store.
