Ended up going to one of the grey market storefronts, cash only so I ended up paying the price plus $3.00 for the stupid ATM fee, and then they give you a receipt and you have to wait in line while someone in the back goes and puts your order together.
Here, we have boutique-style stores, stores run like liquor/grocery stores (Using your Co-op card to get cash back on cannabis is awesome), and they are all over the place. I think Alberta has really done it the right way.

Just some clarification: there are no government-run brick and mortar cannabis stores in Ontario. Only the online store is government-run. The storefront stores (well, most of them anyway) are not "grey market". They are licensed by the government.
