Pulling your own permit and doing your own work is only permitted if A) you own the property, and B) it is a residential dwelling. ie., it must be your own home that you own. It can't be a commercial space. (I lived in Calgary for nearly 10 years before moving to BC).
The same rules apply in Ontario.
Not that I don't do my own wiring anyways, but just wanted to clarify that in case the OP is looking to do it legit.

Pay an electrician, they will bring in a crew with a scissor lift or two and knock it out in short order. They will hang strut channel, pull power, hang lights, hook up a contactor bank. All good to go.
sounds good. thanks everyone. Appreciate all the insight.
Have a great New Year! Any creative ideas still welcome!

I was just thinking a two tier grow opp. That would be insane! Put a rack at 7' and still have 6' from top of warehouse too the canopy on the 2nd rack.

Exactly, do it yourself and the licensed pros get to charge more to tear it out and do it all again. Permits have to be pulled by licensed pros since it's commercial there is only DIY p[ainting and stuff like that. Nothing structural, mechanical, electrical or plumbing can be done by the owner unless they happen to be licensed commercial contractor and even then they would sub out what they aren't trained in like say electrical or plumbing or HVAC.

Hmmmm... what to do?
Just out of curiosity, what type of outer wall, floor, and roof construction, insulation, number of windows/skylights, and as close as you wish to disclose, location. I ask as I once designed tobacco stemeries to fit inside buildings with sawtooth roofs that varied from 20' to 30', that had large skylights, located in the southeastern USA, and was considering other conditions and/or requirements that should figure in to a final decision. Can you maintain the environment in this building favorable to growing hemp?
With what I know, I vote divide into two floors...
