I come from Vancouver—I'm proud to represent Vancouver Kingsway—so I'm well aware of the dispensaries that are operating in Vancouver. I know there are legal licensed dispensaries and unlicensed dispensaries. I'm aware that generally the Vancouver Police Department has not closed down the unlicensed dispensaries, where I know they're selling edibles and all sorts of products that licensed facilities are not allowed to sell.
Deputy Chief LePard has said in a report that the VPD is not shutting down the dispensaries unless they pose a public safety risk. I would assume, because they're not shutting down these dispensaries, that they're not posing a public safety risk in the eyes of the VPD. Is that a correct assumption on my part?
