Montreal Police have raided a store selling illegal mushrooms for the third time in three weeks. The shop, FunGuyz, is fighting the charges in court, and a spokesperson said they expect to reopen soon.
Magic mushrooms are a hallucinogen. It is considered a schedule 3 drug, and the production, sale and possession of it in most contexts is against the law in Canada.

Dana Larsen’s gray exterior hides a mosaic of psychedelia inside her Vancouver mushroom shop, which boasts a mural of Incan gods spewing fire and shelves lined with hemp lip balms and stoner-centric comic books. She keeps her prices low, aiming to make her plant medicine accessible. She also allows any adult over the age of 25 to purchase a microdose, which means a small amount of psilocybin that can help with cognitive functions and boost mood without the hallucinations and altered state associated with a full dose.
Exploring Montreal’s Psychedelic Scene: A Journey into Shrooms
A gram of shrooms can cost as little as $30, depending on the strain. An ounce can cost up to $200, again depending on the strain. The prices vary based on supply and intensity of local laws, so shopping around is key. While it is possible to forage the mushrooms yourself, that process can be expensive and difficult, and requires a lot of skill. For the most hassle-free and safest way to buy fungi, Montreal residents should look to online suppliers.
