431:(NULC). All of the products were initially provided by Tweed, which offers 10 different strains of marijuana as well as product lines like "Leafs by Snoop". Initially, no stores would sell cannabis, but private enterprise stores may be allowed a license in the future. Communities are not allowed to declare a prohibition on cannabis use, but can refuse to allow the construction of cannabis stores. The minimum age for possession or use is 19. Restrictions on smoking cannabis are the same as for smoking tobacco. The NWT government considered the legalization of lounges where cannabis may be consumed in a format other than smoking. No more than 30 grams (1 oz) may be bought at one time by an individual, or carried in public.
