Consumers with prescriptions for pot are supposed to buy from licensed growers who ship the supply via snail mail. All other pot transactions are as illicit as a back-alley deal. But where some see “the law,” some entrepreneurs see opportunity—which explains the more than 50 dispensaries in Toronto. Top Shelf mimics a pristine Apple Store, where friendly staff happily field questions. Owner Lenny Atkinson carries standard medicinal-grade cannabis, including topicals, oils, shatter, dried bud and edibles, all organic and pesticide-free. 3-160 Baldwin St., 416-204-1420.
