　　►Numerous stores dealing with empty shelves and disgruntled customers, with fears many consumers will turn to black market
　　许多商店对着自己空空荡荡的货架，还要照顾着那些心怀不满的顾客，他们担心许多（大麻）消费者会转向黑市购买。
　　When Trevor Tobin opened one of Canada’s first legal cannabis stores last month, he had high hopes of playing a small part in a historic national experiment – and of making a tidy profit.
　　上个月，特雷弗·托宾的店成为了加拿大首批合法售卖大麻的商店之一，当时他寄望自己能成为这次历史性国性试验的一份子，并借助此次机会发一笔财。
　　Brimming with optimism, he and his mother Brenda pooled $100,000 in savings to create High North, one of the few private retailers in Newfoundland and Labrador.
　　当时他自信满满，和母亲布伦达筹集了10万美元，在纽芬兰和拉布拉多开设了 High North 店面，成为了为数不多的大麻私人零售店之一。
　　But the pair quickly found themselves staring at empty shelves – and watching the money they had invested slip away.
　　但是两人很快发现自己的货物被席卷一空，看着自己空荡荡的货架，两人觉得自己投资的钱打了水漂。
　　Day after day, staff at Labrador City’s only cannabis shop have had to turn away customers due to scarce inventory and have even gone as far as temporarily shutting down the store.
　　这个拉布拉多市的一家大麻店的工作人员每天疲于因库存不足而拒绝顾客，甚至暂时关闭了这家商店。
　　“After a week of 100 apologies [to customers] each day, we’re tired of just saying sorry,” said Tobin. “We were told there would be bumps in the road. This isn’t a bump in the road. This is a pothole.”
　　托宾说：“整整一周，我们每天都要向顾客道歉百次，现在的我们已经厌倦了再和顾客说对不起了。”“初有人告诉我们刚刚起步的时候不会太顺利，现在看来这不仅仅是顺不顺利的问题，而是这本身就是一个陷阱。”
　　Two weeks after Canada became the first G20 country to legalize cannabis amid much fanfare and celebration, numerous stores – both physical and digital – are struggling to meet unexpectedly high demand and in much of the country, the legal supply of marijuana has dried up.
　　在G20大张旗鼓的庆祝大麻合法化两周后，人们没有想到大麻需求量如此之好，以至于许多实体和网店根本难以满足需求。在加拿大大部分地区，大麻的合法供应已经枯竭。
　　“There is not enough legal marijuana to supply all of recreational demand in Canada,” said Rosalie Wyonch, a policy analyst at the CD Howe Institute. “The shortages are happening faster than I would have expected, but our research suggested quite strongly that there would be shortages in the first year of legalization.”
　　CD Howe Institute 的政策分析师罗莎莉·温琼说：“在加拿大，没有足够的合法大麻来满足所有的娱乐需求，短缺发生的速度比我预期的要快，但我们的研究表明，在合法化的第一年是会出现短缺的情况。”
　　Online sales make up a large component of the recreational cannabis market. In Ontario, where there are no physical retailers, residents are required to purchase products through a government-run web site.
　　网上销售在休闲大麻在市场中占很大比例。在没有实体零售商的安大略省，居民必须政府运营的网站购买产品。
　　Within the first 24 hours of legalization, the Ontario Cannabis Store website processed 100,000 orders – but few of them have been shipped to customers.
　　在合法化的初24小时内，安大略省大麻网店处理了10万份订单，但是真正将大麻送到顾客手中的订单却很少。
　　Because Ontario only allows online sales of cannabis, many residents have been left waiting two weeks for orders to arrive – and some report random cancellations of their orders.
　　由于安大略省只允许网上销售大麻，许多居民在下单两周后仍在等待，也有人说他们的订单已经被随机取消。
