Just Because FunGuyz Have Been Raided 120+ Times & Are Closing Their Stores…It Doesn | How to buy Skittles Moonrock online

The move marks a new chapter for an operation that’s been one of the most prominent faces of a seemingly burgeoning mushroom business in Ontario, even as debate about access to psilocybin continues in Canada.

“We’re closing all 30 locations and transitioning to online. There have been numerous raids from stores to warehouses to production centres. It cost us a lot of money to stay open, so, at this point, we’re just closing down,” said a man who gave his name as Elwyn Smith and said he was acting as spokesperson for FunGuyz. (Those speaking on behalf of the company had previously refused to give their real names).

Smith estimated that their various stores had been subject to more than 120 raids and increased scrutiny in several cities and areas, such as York Region, where police have focused on cracking down on magic mushrooms dispensaries and operations. He also said 50 per cent of their business is already online sales.

Despite the brazen way many storefronts display and sell the psilocybin products, they are still illegal and selling them is drug trafficking. Some people can get permission to use magic mushrooms for medical reasons through a special access program under Health Canada. But many illegal mushroom dispensaries have been following the playbook created by illegal cannabis dispensaries that operated before the legalization of marijuana.

Toronto police spokesperson Stephanie Sayer told the Star this summer that while anyone selling or producing psilocybin without a Health Canada exemption would be committing a criminal offence, “in terms of priorities, enforcement by TPS is largely focused on the trafficking of illegal drugs that are resulting in overdose deaths, and having a traumatic and devastating impact on our communities.
