Cannabis lawyer Kirk Tousaw sees some positive news in B.C.’s new weed policies

(Lawyer Kirk Tousaw will be a panelist at the Georgia Straight’s upcoming event, Grassroots: An Expo for the Cannabis Curious on April 7 and 8, 2018. Get your tickets now.)

For many years, B.C. lawyer Kirk Tousaw has been on the leading edge of cannabis legalization.

He was part of the legal team that won a landmark Supreme Court of Canada decision on edibles, as well as an important Federal Court ruling on growing medical cannabis.

So when Tousaw speaks on these issues, people listen to what he says.

Today, he issued a tweetstorm in response to the B.C. government’s newly unveiled rules around the selling of cannabis.

‘I think it is very positive that existing dispensary operators will not be automatically prevented from being licensed,’ Tousaw wrote. ‘It will be case by case.’

He advised dispensary owners to ‘get your operations in shape if you’ve been slacking’.

‘Pay any back taxes, get your records into shape, etc.,’ he emphasized.

Tousaw also pointed out that liquor licensees won’t automatically receive a cannabis licence.

Licensed producers will face restrictions on owning retail stores, but those with an interest in LPs can apply. However, they won’t be allowed to sell the LP’s product because no ‘tied selling’ will be permitted.

There also won’t be any requirements for specified distances between stores.

It was unclear to Tousaw whether craft producers can sell directly to consumers at the farm.

‘Seems clear that you won’t be able to have samples or on-site use like at vineyards and craft breweries,’ he stated. ‘This is a shame—no good reason to treat cannabis more restrictively than alcohol in the respect.’

Kirk's journey through the digital realm began with lines of code and algorithms dancing in his dreams. Armed with a keyboard and an insatiable curiosity, he embarked on the path of software engineering. However, fate had a smoky twist in store for him. As the ones and zeros swirled around him, Kirk had an epiphany – he realized that he was more interested in the highs and lows of the cannabis industry than debugging lines of code. With a leap of faith that would make a bungee jumper blush, he bid farewell to the world of semicolons and database queries and embraced the intoxicating allure of cannabis journalism. Now, Kirk finds himself navigating a different kind of network, one that's all about buds, trichomes, and terpenes. Armed with a pen that's mightier than a vaporizer and a keen eye for detail, he's on a mission to unravel the mysteries of the green world.
