- **Minimum age:** 19+ (tourist access, possession); 21+ (purchase)
- **Important restrictions:** Check the official provincial retailer list; a directory entry is not licence confirmation.

Product limits differ by product type (10 mg THC per edible package, 1,000 mg THC per extract/topical container). Check the product-specific medical conditions and dispensing requirements. Travel and import permissions must be checked separately. Never carry cannabis across a national border, including bringing it into or out of Canada.

### Start with the right local source

Plan the visit around Québec’s own system: the provincial framework sets the age threshold at 21 and identifies SQDC as the retail seller. The province page helps you choose a locality, then a branch, rather than treating every listing as an authorized seller. [\[1\]](https://www.quebec.ca/sante/conseils-et-prevention/alcool-drogues-jeu/connaitre-les-drogues-et-leurs-effets/cannabis/encadrement-cannabis-quebec/cadre-legal-cannabis-bref)

Open the [Québec catalogue](/weed/canada/quebec) to compare addresses. Use the map or nearest-venues option for the journey, then check the current information for the premises you selected.

### Before setting off

Select the city or town where you will be, open the branch details and confirm its hours and accepted original ID. Read product availability on the current branch or operator page rather than relying on a saved menu.

- Match the exact address, not only the business name.
- Check the opening hours for the day of the visit.
- Contact the venue if an access condition or the listed service is unclear.

### Does this province page mean Québec City only?

Choose the locality before opening directions. The province’s retail framework also applies to Montréal and other Québec municipalities; a provincial overview is not a single-city store list.

### If the information does not match

Save the official source and the venue’s reply. Use the listing’s correction option for an incorrect address or hours. Read the local purchase and consumption dimensions separately; this visit guide helps you choose and verify a next step, while the linked rules explain its conditions.
