A good start would also be dedicated store fronts specializing in weed only as with the current set up it gives people with lobbying money to only try to get sales from their own store fronts, ie in BC private liquor stores.Here's the thing. We all know the 40 LP's cannot supply the quality or quantity of cannabis needed to satisfy the Canadian market, but we are also aware we mmj/bm grow some of the best cannabis in the world. Mclellan and the rest of them know it too. If this (legalization) has a hope in hell of being successful they NEED to open up the market to small entrepreneurs.
It's a no-brainer for BC. Vancouver, Victoria and several other cities already license dispensaries and many more exist in nearly every community. They need to take that model province-wide for retail.A good start would also be dedicated store fronts specializing in weed only as with the current set up it gives people with lobbying money to only try to get sales from their own store fronts, ie in BC private liquor stores.
They don't think, just like no one EVER asks about the 100's of millions of tax and spendable cash that would disappear from local economies once illegal growers can't make money.why not create an industry and jobs that did not exist before.???...rather than giving the work to a union/Liquor control board... that already employs
a work force, they do not need the extra work to justify their jobs....plenty of people already support the system we already know as BIG ALCOHOL ,
the government should try at least to be "forward thinking"....
