Globe/CP say Hexo, rivals watch AGCO mete out penalties

The Globe and Mail reports in its Thursday, April 11, edition that a dozen Ontario cannabis retailers are being financially penalized for failing to open their stores at the beginning of this month. A Canadian Press dispatch to The Globe reports that the Alcohol and Gaming Commission, which held a lottery to determine who could apply for store licences, had previously announced a system of escalating penalties for the province's 25 cannabis stores if they were not able to start serving customers by April 1. Stores that missed the deadline would see the commission draw down $12,500 on a $50,000 letter of credit, and would risk losing the entire amount if they still were not operational by the end of the month. Only 10 of the province's cannabis stores were ready for business on last week's launch date. The AGCO says it is drawing down credit from 12 retailers that are not open yet, while ruling two others had their openings delayed for reasons beyond their control. The province's 25th retail store, chosen from a wait list after an initial lottery winner was disqualified, is not expected to start operations until April 28.
