Original Article: It’s an exciting time to live, work, and play in the Lonsdale Avenue corridor. With new businesses and stores opening up in preparation for the 2019 Christmas season things are looking bright for local shopping. And with that said, we are going to be getting our very own Cannabis Retail Store in Lower Lonsdale located at 223 West 1st Street called 1st Cannabis.
Founders of the retail location Brian and Allan Riedlinger are also co-owners of the famous Sailor Hagar’s Pub and Liquor Store, which has been around for decades. A little known fact about the pub is that they brewed some of the first IPA craft beer in British Columbia back in 1984. So of course they have tons of experience with trail blazing and running successful retail stores. Not only did they pave the way for local craft breweries, they are now paving the way for recreational Cannabis sales.
1st Cannabis is a 150 square foot retail store that is currently getting remodelled to best serve the needs of clients and the community, and they are also starting with their hiring process so if you know anyone who is looking for a job as a budtender, store manager or similar you will want to get in touch with them through their Instagram profile or visiting the store.
The City of North Vancouver is having an open house at The Shipyards on November 21st 2019 from 6pm to 8pm to welcome feedback and discussion from the community members. If you are interested in having your feedback heard or being part of shaping retail Cannabis sales in North Vancouver you should attend this meeting.
The biggest brands in recreational Cannabis in Canada are of course Broken Coast, Aphria, CannTrust, Organigram, Aurora, MedLeaf, Tilray, Emblem, Spectrum, Bedrocan, Peace Naturals, Emerald Health, Zenabis, Tantalus Labs, Tweed, Pure Sunfarms and a few others. You can expect to see some or all of these brands for sale at the 1st Cannabis Retail Store in Lower Lonsdale.
In the near future we are going to update this article with an interview we are doing with the store owners and include news photos from after the renovations are complete. If you would like to learn more read here.

cannabis plants have sex. there are male plants and female plants. the males have the seeds and the females make the buds. pot stores like this are oppressive, expensive, tiny and is incredibly shady so go elsewhere. there are many stores that are better and just in case you didnt know, the daddy that owns this store also owns the green star just down the road and also pushes alot of booze so yah, no respect for the bud. just pure grease and greed. it was much better when the government didnt give men like these licences to sell the girls. should of left it up to the hippies.
