All I can say is that window in front faces this small antechamber where a guard sits and checks ID and controls a buzzer. There’s a divider with the second door much further back, after the desk, which leads to the actual store and the shelves.
The stores are all designed that way, shawn, at the instance of the provincial government. The ostensible purpose is two-fold: to ensure no one on the street, especially underagers, can see any cannabis product or packaging and to provide a space for age checks that ensures underagers and the obviously intoxicated don’t make it into the actual store. By providing an additional barrier for would-be thieves to get past, the age-check area also helps prevent robberies.

Sounds like his GPS was working but his brakes were not.

Il en a d’ailleurs profité pour tenter de commettre un vol…
Or maybe the “accident” was on purpose and itself an attempted robbery?
Wondering whether this is going to prompt the government corporation to rethink its store design.

Holy smokes that’s my outlet! Now it’s personal.

Curiosity… who’s insurance covers the damage, the car driver’s or the stores?
