BC's new cannabis regulations now allow retail stores to promote consumption spaces & permit smoking/vaping on public patios where tobacco use is allowed, subject to local laws. A big step for cannabis freedom and tourism! bit.ly/3SYiItv

Thanks @ABLEBC for bringing industry & elected officials together to network and discuss policy affecting liquor & cannabis licensees in B.C. (bars, pubs and liquor & cannabis retailers) Enjoyed talking with Min. @mikefarnworthbc about how we can support this important industry.

Nobody wants to see more BC restaurants go under. We’re calling on the BC government to create a provincially-led debt relief program and dedicate more resources to restaurants impacted by natural disasters. Learn more ➡️ bcrfa.com/savebcrestaurants #bcpoli #SaveBCRestaurants

This is the most unappetizing menu you'll ever read. The 'Unhappy Hour' menu highlights the challenges facing restaurants & steps governments can take to help, such as streamlining approvals, harmonizing liquor laws & relief programs. ➡️bit.ly/491FTbF #bcpoli #vanpoli
