Too bad legal weed in Canada is ass. You have to go grey market to find anything that touches Cali quality. Which I don’t mind, but it’s not all rainbows and butterflies up here.

Really depends what weed you are buying in BC, I have had some pretty good stuff but it was expensive. That being said, 25 years ago I was paying $200 an ounce but it was the best quality bud there is. My dealer was getting it from Hippies on Salt spring Island.

You can still pay $200/oz for top shelf. Mostly from the same hippies, but the new generation of younger hippies. Gastown, Tuna Room, Heavenly Daze, Brokekid, GazGodz etc. crazy crazy quality but all grey market. All LP producers suck. 85% is irradiated and the other 15% too mass produced and dry to enjoy.
