Legal battle underway as Pelham neighbourhood fights chronic ‘weed smell’

A legal battle is underway in the Town of Pelham, as two marijuana grow operations and a chronic stench emanating from them has plagued a nearby neighbourhood. Since it was legalized, the overpowering smell has been a problem for those who live in Pelham. Not one, but two cannabis grow operations can be found stinking the place up. The first, owned by an indigenous company based out of British Columbia, the other run by Redecan, a subsidiary of the American pharmaceutical giant known as Tilray Brands. When the town tried to fine the producers under its odour by-law, those growers fought back. “That’s being challenged by Tilray in the Superior Court of Justice,” said David Cribbs, the Chief Administrative Officer at the Town of Pelham. “They’re attacking the validity of the by-law, the town’s capacity to pass it, the town’s capacity to enforce it, and further they’re arguing it was passed in bad faith.” Directly across the road from one of the aforementioned grow operations, owned by a company known as Thunder Spirit, a light smell can be found, but residents say some days are worse than others.
