One of British Columbia’s largest unions has joined forces with private liquor stores to press for permission to sell non-medical marijuana in provincial liquor stores once that becomes legal.
The province’s liquor store network has a solid track record for selling alcohol in a socially responsible manner, especially when it comes to checking that buyers are of age, the two groups told a news conference Wednesday. That network would dovetail well with the sale of non-medical marijuana, they said.
“We believe this is an incredible opportunity for British Columbia,” said Stephanie Smith, president of the B.C. Government and Service Employees’ Union.
