1. Legal purchase ages
You must meet the minimum legal age in the province or territory where your order is delivered or picked up — not just where you live. In Ontario, where our store is located, the minimum age is 19. The current minimum ages across Canada are:
| Province / Territory | Minimum age |
|---|---|
| Alberta | 18+ |
| British Columbia | 19+ |
| Manitoba | 19+ |
| New Brunswick | 19+ |
| Newfoundland and Labrador | 19+ |
| Nova Scotia | 19+ |
| Northwest Territories | 19+ |
| Nunavut | 19+ |
| Ontario | 19+ |
| Prince Edward Island | 21+ |
| Quebec | 18+ |
| Saskatchewan | 19+ |
| Yukon | 19+ |
If you do not meet the minimum age for your delivery province, please do not place an order — it cannot be handed over and will be cancelled and refunded.
2. How verification works
Age is checked in steps, not just once:
- On this website. You confirm your age when you enter the site, and placing an order confirms again that you meet the legal age in your province or territory.
- At delivery. Delivery orders require an adult recipient. The courier may ask to see government-issued photo ID and will require a signature at the door where the law requires it.
- At pickup. We check government-issued photo ID in store before releasing an order, including orders that were paid for online.
If age cannot be verified at handoff, the order is not released. Undeliverable orders are handled under our Shipping Policy.
3. What counts as ID
Government-issued photo ID that clearly shows your date of birth — for example a driver's licence, a passport, or a provincial or territorial photo identification card. The ID must be valid (not expired) and must belong to the person receiving the order.
4. Who can receive an order
The person receiving the order must personally meet the legal age and be able to show their own ID. We cannot hand an order to anyone under the legal age, even if the order is prepaid and even if it is a gift for someone else. Another adult who meets the legal age can receive the delivery or pick up in store with their own ID.
5. Your information
ID checks are visual and happen in person, at the door or at the counter. We do not ask customers to email, text, or upload a copy of their ID, and we do not store copies of ID documents.
