Hamiltonians don’t need to travel far to run in to a cannabis dispensary, but a new type of store is sprouting up, one that specializes in magic mushrooms.
Despite it being very much illegal, customers and some surrounding businesses are showing support.
A spokesperson for The Mushroom Cabinet on Main St. East says opening up the store is part of “the cause” to push for legalization.
Psilocybin or “magic” mushrooms are a restricted substance in Canada, but Health Canada has approved some forms of it for medicinal use.
