With just a month left to go until recreational pot is legal across the country, here's what you need to know if you want to partake. None of those will be approved in time for Oct. 17. In Vancouver, which began licensing illegal pot dispensaries in 2015, pot shops will need a development permit, a provincial retail licence and a new municipal business licence if they want to stay open. On Oct. 17, 2018 edible pot treats like this cupcake will still be illegal. Cannabis concentrates and vape juice won't be legal on Oct. 17, either.
