Online Dispensary in Behchoko, NT

Behchokǫ̀ is the largest Dene community in Canada, headquarters of the Tłı̨chǫ Government and home to roughly 1,900 people at the point where Great Slave Lake’s North Arm meets Marian Lake. The community is really two settlements under one name: Rae, built around a Hudson’s Bay Company trading post that Scottish explorer John Rae established in 1852, and Edzo, developed by the government in 1965 as an alternative site with better drainage, though most Tłı̨chǫ families chose to stay in Rae to keep easy access to hunting, fishing and trapping. The name Behchokǫ̀ itself means Big Knife, and it officially replaced the old name Rae-Edzo in 2005.

That name change came alongside the Tłı̨chǫ Agreement, signed right here in Behchokǫ̀, the first combined land claim and self-government agreement anywhere in the Northwest Territories, granting the Tłı̨chǫ ownership of nearly 39,000 square kilometres of traditional land. The community still hosts hand-game tournaments, assemblies and gatherings that draw travellers from across the territory, alongside access to North Arm Territorial Park for canoeing, camping and aurora viewing. Today Behchokǫ̀ sits about an hour’s drive from Yellowknife along Highway 3. Weed Market ships to Behchokǫ̀ addresses the same way it does anywhere else in the Northwest Territories, fast, tracked and completely discreet.

What to Know About Buying Cannabis in Behchokǫ̀, NT

• The Northwest Territories runs cannabis retail through its Liquor and Cannabis Commission, with most communities, Behchokǫ̀ included, served through mail-order rather than a physical storefront.
• NWT community governments can hold a plebiscite to restrict or prohibit cannabis sales before any local store opens, an option available to Behchokǫ̀ that hasn’t been exercised to date.
• Home cultivation in the NWT is capped at 4 plants per household, allowed either indoors or in a private outdoor yard.
• With no cannabis storefront in Behchokǫ̀ itself, ordering through Weed Market means the same delivery experience residents already use for territorial mail-order, just with a broader product catalogue.
