“If Health Canada did in fact do this, they did it, not only without engaging with the province, but without notice to us,” he said. “So we will get answers for British Columbians about this.”
Falcon said he supports decriminalization of simple possession in principle but the B.C. NDP government has plunged into decriminalization “without the proper guardrails,” which opens up the scenario now playing out with Astrada. The company supplies products to 1,400 cannabis retailers across Canada.Article content
The press release says Forbes has experience working in the front lines of addiction medicine as a pharmacist who operates several methadone pharmacies.
I want to live in my own island. Society is doomed.
Is this actually real?
Apparently this is not true!!!
This is so sad for Canada. It will rapidly turn into a 3rd world country full of scumbag addicts. Almost there already. Fentanyl is a chemical weapon inflicted on Canada by China. Xi Jinping has paid for soft policy on massive drug trafficking and deaths into the 10's of 1000s
Drug industry complex is in full swing now.
Cola, eye drops, throat lozenges, toothache drops. People survived. And those were without prescription.
Hope the public gets a say. No good can come from this…Where does it end?! 😡
Just what we need more drug addicts on our streets! 🤬 now the younger generation will think it’s ok to try some cocaine ! Unbelievable!!! Canada is lost 😞
Bring back the old days when Coke used to be safe.
Just in time for the weekend. Let's get stoned! I heard free shit is coming. Take care of my kids will ya? Let's party!
Imagine writing an article after taking a picture of that person's disgusting fingernails.
Government doesn’t care about humanity?
1000000 question. Where are they going to get the Coca Leafs from to produce their supply? Will they grow them in nursery’s? Are they planning on imoorting them? From where?
Just don't use a plastic straw to snort it, that will get you fined in Vancouver! So messed up
What could possibly go wrong?! 🙄
Are—are we becoming California? Ban gas cars and legalize cocaine productiona/manufacturing? I'd ask what our leaders are smoking but I think it's becoming obvious.
Legalize all drugs, ensure a clean supply, regulate. The war on drugs is lost. Billions wasted on law enforcement and they're still prevalent. Dave_Eby BCNDPCaucus KevinFalcon BCLiberalCaucus

The Canucks taking Bumps has a whole new meaning... they would have more but CocaineBear used it all
Our taxpayer dollars at work. Perhaps some government bureaucrats need to be terminated?
When you think things can't get more ridiculous you can always count on government officials to royally fuck things up even more.
Let's look at the connection between Trudeau, his cabinet, this company and its directors. It's at least another example of this regime's total disregard for provincial jurisdiction.
Awful idea
 How Ironic ! F5 Networks › blog › bot-tra... I'm a former CIA cyber-operations officer who studies bot traffic. Here's ...
Yup that’s right
Be careful, about putting Like’s on social media. Could be tracked back to you ha ha…..
Wtf are we doing 😔?
It took 2 months to get a license to sell Cocaine in Trudeau Canada, I'm still waiting for my passport.
Addiction and pretending to cure it has become big business in BC! The NDP government has been shovelling money hand over fist to their friends in quickly established Non Profits!
Why
So fucking based
Ridiculous
It's bad enough that the liberals are high on weed now the rest government works will be on this
Love how between Eby and Trudeau, NOBODY was notified that this was on the table. Greasy left wing politics. One wonders how much the drug cartels contributed financially to the ndp and liberals. Apparently, both are drug dealing political parties. We need better.
It was only a matter of time!
I see what this is really about. Get the curious and the casual users addicted to the point that they get depressed. Then, they would seek assisted suicide.
'Cloverdale-Langley City MP John Aldag spoke with officials at Health Canada, and confirmed that the cocaine is not intended for commercial sale, but for research purposes.' LOL Liberal Falcon came out swinging like he can't imagine a world where we just avoid locking ppl up
Only recreational users would gain from this. Crackheads don't like clean drugs. They prefer dirty fentanyl so don't seeing it benefiting anyone except the casual partyier people
This will save thousands of lives.
No prior consultation between fed and prov govt on a company to produce cocaine in BC ? What’s going on with public policy, health policy in Canada. GovCanHealth
BC: Decriminalize drugs, you monsters! Reduce the harm of stigmatization! Feds: We think it's more complicated than that, but ok. We'll ensure a safe drug supply too, so people stop dying. BC: Not like THAT.
I'm sorry but....wtf?!? So the government are now dealers?! 😳 i mean, we know they're all on drugs, that much is clear from just watching the world....but dealers? 😳😂
BadIdea
We live in such an innovative city 🤡 🎪
BC is heavily invested in the business of death
The cartel’s don’t like competition This just really doesn’t seem like a good idea.
Somehow, the government will find a way to lose money on this.
Ask those that know his history and intentions - Michael Forbes is 💩 and has a ❤️ for 💰. FORBESPHARMACY is going to evaluate how the commercialization of cocaine fits in with its business model in an effort to position itself to support the demand for a safe supply? Really?!
It’s a grand idea… imagine getting paid in cocaine then trying to convince revenue canada…. I can’t wait to see this play out. Lol
Ironies abound. Cocaine Heroin and Cannabis were only made illegal 100 years ago this May. Not difficult at all to imagine a world where access to legal pharmaceutically pure drugs is normal
how much more proof do british columbians need?Our govt wants more overdoses and more children hooked on drugs. shame on you BC
The BC apocalypse has arrived.
First jabs now cocaine. Any takers on what drug they're gonna try and kill us with next? Legalize and sell everything why not? Let's degenerate into a third world country! Let's go.
Pretty soon Canada will become a narco state
Now we finally know that winning the war on drugs just means addiction to the government approved product.
Why not encourage people not to do drugs as they can kill you and take up our ambulances when they overdose with their drugs. Pretty soon no one will work and we will have a country full of addicts
Lol what a joke.
How is this even possible. Personal possession amounts were decriminalized, not made legal. The selling and buying is still illegal and a criminal offense.
GovCanHealth Dave_Eby JustinTrudeau ?!?
You've got to be kidding
I hope my tax dollar isn't being spent on this.
Nice going Vancouver, please more emphasis on health! More innovative ideas 💡
This country is going the wrong way … and fast. 😡
There’s gonna be some enthusiastic workers, probably a net plus for the economy
What a shit show
Here’s the thing, the “fix” from coke and fentanyl is going to be so far off what a Govt limited brand will give that no one will want it anyway so they’ll sell it for the money to buy whats killing them. The cheaply “sold” govt brand will end up creating new users.
17 hour work days here I come!!!! The government will be happy for the influx of taxes.
It comes in 5gram packs and you get nabbed by the RCMP outside for having over 2.5 grams it’s a trap!
Which company? Asking for a friend 😂
Great 👍 so a new drug user can get addicted without the risk of dying so they can live on to support their new addiction for longer?...
Cocaine is drug but it is not drug.
🤣 So where does one get large 'legal' amounts of cocaine to sell? Who is importing it here?
I believe the dark ages came after the Roman empire crumbled and society took a step backwards for the first time. This feels like déjà vu in that regard.😬
Marijuana was the gateway to this insanity.
Make sure all you Vancouverites thank the BCNDPCaucus the liberal_party NDP for the collaboration to make this happen! Kids will have easy access in no time!
It will be a big seller at Canucks games. bcpoli
Wow JustinTrudeau
A side of decriminalization that clearly wasn't considered.
About time!!!
Good, now I can buy a gram without the fear of getting g tainted product
Fuck this
We have become a narco state.
Outrageous
Coming to a high school near you
Many a Cartel are now demanding that their business licenses to be approved,, 😅😂🤣
PaulChapman_ Adastra Holdings can hire Zambada García (aka El Mayo) of the Sinaloa Cartel to be a senior advisor.
Now our politicians can be productive again!
