Prices of hundreds of cannabis products at Ontario’s provincially owned online retail store have decreased dramatically since legalization, a result of rising cannabis supply and a proliferation of product offerings from producers.

“To date, more than 200 product price decreases have been made on dried cannabis, pre-rolls, oils and capsules as well as accessories,” the Ontario Cannabis Store revealed in a statement this week.

According to the OCS, more than 160 price drops came in the dried flower category and approximately 40 in the extract category, which includes products such as cannabis oils and gel capsules.

For example, the per-gram price of Wink No. 1, a THC-heavy, pre-rolled joint produced by craft grower Northern Green Canada, was $26.75 when it first went on sale after legalization, and has since plunged 40 per cent to $15.95 per gram. The price of three-and-a-half grams of 7Acres Jean Guy, one of the more popular strains of dried flower by licensed producer The Supreme Cannabis Co., has fallen by more than 20 per cent since legalization, from $50.70 to $39.95.
