"It amazed me how quickly they went," her dad Seann Childs told the broadcaster. "Even people in cars driving on the avenue there would stop and roll down their window and ask for cookies."  God bless this girl selling girl guide cookies outside of nova cannabis. ������������#yeg pic.twitter.com/dnI9HdBXPc — Emily Fitzpatrick (@_emilyfitzCBC) October 17, 2018 Edmonton Girl Guide sells out of cookies outside cannabis store https://t.co/QmTDd3h3Yb pic.twitter.com/NDTBQ3NbFF — CBC Edmonton (@CBCEdmonton) October 18, 2018 While a clever business scheme, it was also an opportunity for dad to teach Elina, who has cystic fibrosis, about cannabis and its recent legalization. The Girl Guides were also cool with it. "Good on her and her family for thinking of it," Edmonton commissioner Heather Monahan told the Canadian Press. "It's fun and it's different and what better way to get rid of cookies." In February, a girl scout in San Diego did the same thing outside a dispensary, managing to sell 300 boxes in six hours.
