FAQs

It’s common to have questions about cannabis in Canada. The Joint has collected some of the most common to help you along your journey. Always check the laws in your province or territory to ensure you have the most up-to-date information.

How much cannabis can I legally possess at one time?

The Cannabis Act allows recreational marijuana use for Canadians 18 years of age or older. Some provinces require users to be over the age of 19. The law stipulates that citizens can possess up to 30 grams of dried cannabis or an equivalent non-dried form in public.

One gram of dried cannabis is the equivalent of:

  • Five grams of fresh cannabis
  • 15 grams of edibles
  • 70 grams of liquid
  • .25 grams of concentrates
  • one cannabis plant seed

How old do you have to be to purchase and consume cannabis?

The legal age to purchase cannabis depends on the province or territory. For most, the age is 19. The exceptions are Alberta and Quebec, where the ages are 18 and 21 respectively.

What provinces can I buy cannabis in?

The Cannabis Act legalized marijuana across Canada. While each territory dictates whether its system for retail sales is private or government-owned, you can purchase weed across the country. The Joint only offers cannabis to customers in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.

Can I buy weed online?

Yes, but where and how differ between provinces. The Joint sells cannabis online to Saskatchewan and Manitoba. When ordering online, you still need to provide ID when receiving or picking up your order.

Where can I get cannabis delivered?

While most provinces allow cannabis delivery, each has unique stipulations for who can deliver. The Joint offers cannabis delivery in Saskatchewan and offers same-day delivery in Manitoba.
