In Vancouver that usually means they were caught selling to kids. In another city it could be the will of the mayor or police chief....with some financial encouragement from the LP lobby.
Is it f*cking spring yet Justin? Now you're saying summer? F*ck you. Time to end the bullshit and get on with it. We need a massive protest day to remind Ottawa we're not going away...coast to coast to fucking coast....I'll take the left coast.
Trudeau says marijuana legislation expected by summer
'Until we have a framework to control and regulate marijuana, the current laws apply,' PM says Edit:
*( the current laws also applied when Justin admittedly inhaled)
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau says new marijuana legislation should be ready by summer, but his government is not considering the legalization of any other drugs.
Trudeau made the comments at CFB Esquimalt, where he kicked off a two-day trip to Victoria and Vancouver, emphasizing that people need to follow existing drug laws until the new ones are announced.
"Until we have a framework to control and regulate marijuana, the current laws apply," he said.

In the afternoon he was to meet with Victoria Mayor Lisa Helps, who said she will again note the region's opposition to the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion.
"This government has made up its mind on Kinder Morgan," Helps told CBC News. "Having said that, there are very active efforts, particularly led by First Nations, that are trying to stop the pipeline."
Traffic disruptions are expected in Victoria along Pandora Avenue between Government Street and Douglas Street during the prime minister's visit and Victoria City Hall will be closed in the afternoon.
Heading to Vancouver to meet premier
Trudeau will fly to Vancouver later in the day to meet with Premier Christy Clark to discuss the opioid crisis and softwood lumber.
On Friday, he'll stay in Vancouver to have a first-hand look at the city's opioid drug crisis. Details of his schedule have yet to be released, but B.C. Health Minister Terry Lake said he would also like to meet with the prime minister to discuss the drug crisis.
"There are people working on the front lines that will be very happy to see Canada's prime minister first-hand taking a look at this public health crisis that we've got in B.C," Lake told reporters Wednesday.
