‘Joints for Jabs’ comes to Canada

Published on June 21, 2021 by oz. staff

A Canadian cannabis store is joining the “Joints for Jabs” movement.

Delta 9 Cannabis stores are offering Manitobans a chance to win free weed for a year by showing proof they are fully vaccinated with two doses of a COVID-19 vaccine.

“We want to encourage all Manitobans to get vaccinated as soon as possible to help ensure that we can all get back to doing the things we love with our friends and family,” says John Arbuthnot, CEO of Delta 9. “Our hope is that the “Joints for Jabs” program will contribute to achieve this objective.”

Joints for Jabs started in the US, where some states are allowing people to claim a free joint is they’re fully vaccinated.

Winnipeg-based Delta 9 says it wants to help contribute to the re-opening of the local communities and economy.

Draws are to be held on a monthly basis and prizes include:

• Three Grand Prize Draws for a One Year Supply of Cannabis ($100 per month for 12 months – equivalent to approximately 28 grams per month).
• 20 Free Joints Each Month at Every Delta 9 Cannabis Store Location in MB
• Delta 9 Branded Apparel Giveaways

The Delta 9 Joints for Jabs program runs from June 21 – Sept. 30, 2021.

No purchase is necessary to enter the draw. Delta 9 store staff will verify eligibility by checking an individual’s immunization record, either printed or online.
