A Tokyo Smoke cannabis store is coming to a shopping centre on Hamilton Mountain in the not-too-distant future.

Construction hoarding bearing the name of Tokyo Smoke, which is the retail brand of Canopy Growth Corp., is now visible on the first level of the CF Lime Ridge mall in Hamilton. The brand is already well-known in the Hamilton area through dispenaries in Stoney Creek (2257 Rymal Rd. E.) and downtown on James North (235 James St. N.).

The James North store currently is rated 4.5 stars (out of five) on Google Reviews. The Tokyo Smoke location in Stoney Creek has a 4.4-star rating. It also made headlines last year when it became the second dispenary in Hamilton whose employees are unionized. 

The Katz Group, which owns the Edmonton Oilers hockey team, announced last summer it would bringing Tokyo Smoke stores to some CF (Cadillac Fairview) malls in Ontario. At that time, though, Lime Ridge was not identified as one of the locations.

Both locations in Hamilton have garnered respectable feedback since coming to the city. One strain that runs through the Google Reviews of both locations is that Tokyo Smoke has a “little something for everybody.”

It’s going to be a wet night in Mississauga, Brampton, Milton and Halton Hills tonight.

• Mississauga
