Ontario REC retailer Superette has figured out how to generate free, legal publicity despite Health Canada’s stringent anti-advertising regs: doing nice things for their community. Jumping in on a post by cannabis reviewers WhatsMyPot showing a mountain of plastic packaging waste from a year’s worth of legal product, Superette offered to pay to ship the containers to be recycled.
- Additionally, they accepted the containers as part of an ongoing challenge: for every empty container returned, they’ll give one can to the Ottawa Food Bank. Maybe they’ll take yours too? Nice work, Superette!
