Ontario Cannabis Strains: The Cream of the Crop
Afghani Bullrider by BLLRDR
While this Canadian cannabis hybrid strain is loved all over the country, its roots in Toronto give the east coast a heavy advantage. The fast-acting, indica-dominant strain is cultivated by Toronto-based brand, BLLRDR, which is known to produce rare and special-cut Canadian cannabis strains with their exquisite genetics and small-batch production. The strain has vibrant, fluffy buds, with amber pistils that produce a sweet and sour aroma. It gives a relaxing effect combined with the giggles.
Jean Guy by Fume
This high-terpene Canadian cannabis strain from the Ontario-based company has Dutch roots and is famous for its cerebral high. Its sour, citrusy aroma has hints of lemon and pine, adorned with frosted dark green leaves that cover its pastel buds. Jean Guy is revered by both medicinal and recreational consumers because of its well-rounded effects that can lift moods and alleviate pain. Try the Jean Guy FSO cartridge from Fume, with a 7% terpene profile that has a sweet, citrusy, and woody flavour.
Peanut Butter Breath by Caramel Cannabis
Grown in Oro-Medonte, Peanut Butter Breath is a Canadian cannabis strain worthy of international recognition. The strain has long, dense buds covered in resin that makes it appealing and enticing. It has a specific aroma of coffee and notes of crushed garlic, with a rich and earthy flavour upon the inhale, finished with a sweet note upon the exhale. Its ridiculously high THC content ranges from 20 to 26%, making it a top choice for all types of consumers across the country.
British Columbia Cannabis Strains: The Best in the West
BC Organic Blue Dream by Simply Bare

Sweet and spicy, this Canadian cannabis strain will leave you feeling creative and euphoric, inspiring you to complete a project or to explore the great outdoors. Another notable mention from Simply Bare worthy of being labeled as one of the best British Columbia strains is the BC Organic Apple Toffee.
Pink Kush by Pure Sunfarms
