ILLEGAL CANNABIS IS A BUZZKILL

IT’S NOT A PARTY WITHOUT THIRD-PARTY TESTING

Illegal cannabis products don’t go through the rigorous third-party testing that legal cannabis does. This means they could be contaminated with harmful chemicals or pesticides, or other substances that are dangerous to consume.

WHAT’S EVEN IN IT? 

Lack of oversight and testing of illegal products means you could be consuming anything, from toxic pesticides and heavy metals to dangerous levels of salmonella and E. coli.

A CHECKLIST FOR LEGAL CANNABIS 

CHECK THE SEAL
Legal stores in Ontario must display the Cannabis Retail Seal near their entrance. The seal must also be prominently displayed on any authorized website, app or other digital platform.

 CHECK ID AND PAYMENT
While legal stores will check your identification if you look under 25, legal websites won’t ask you to upload a photo of your ID. If a site requires you to pay through a bank transfer or email Interac e-Transfer, and doesn’t accept credit cards, it’s illegal.

CHECK THE PACKAGING
Legal cannabis products come in plain, child-resistant packaging with the required health warnings and standardized cannabis symbol. If the packaging looks like it’s trying 
to appeal to children or mimic popular candy brands, it’s likely illegal.
