The AGCO says Ontario’s legal cannabis consumption age is 19. Retailers must request identification from people who appear to be under 25 and confirm they are at least 19 before allowing them to enter. These rules concern legal access and are not an age check performed by this website.
What the AGCO says about identification
The AGCO’s current guidance describes the under-25 ID check and says identification should be valid, government-issued and not expired. Retailers are responsible for applying the rules at their locations. This website does not collect or review identity documents.
