Clear windows, safe work places and less stigma.
Thank you to @mikefarnworthbc and the team at the LCRB for listening and working with our sector to allow this change.
Window coverings coming down in BC cannabis stores following the BC govt announcement Friday. Safer stores and reducing stigma for cannabis use. Thank you for listening @mikefarnworthbc and @BCGovNews
By the end of the night you’ll be able to see into our store and we’ll be able to see you! The window covering requirement has been repealed at a provincial level!!!
Great job @rccbc_ca
