The majority of employees in Quebec's cannabis stores will not be unionized.

The CSN tried to unionize employees in eight stores operating in the province.

It failed, however, to convince more than a third of employees to sign up, which is the minimum needed to have employees vote on joining a union.

The food workers’ union TUAC is still trying to sign up employees in four other cannabis stores.
