One thing that many people love during the holiday season is an Advent calendar with yummy chocolate.
This year it’s yummy marijuana but it’s being sold illegally by a Canadian company.
The company, called Coast to Coast Medicinals, which started operating earlier this year and is unlicensed, has started taking pre orders on their Advent calendars.
The company’s Advent calendar is a collection of 24 small boxes that have either flowers, or edibles, or a combination of both.
The problem is that Canada won’t start allowing recreational marijuana sales until next summer at the earliest.
The country’s government has been working on legalizing recreational marijuana with a potential start date on July 1, 2018.
Many companies including Coast to Coast Medicinals are taking advantage of the “grey” area.
“We just wanted something fun and different for adults,” said business owner Lorilee Fedler who spoke to Geordon Omand from The Canadian Press.
