Kamloops council approves business license for government cannabis store
KAMLOOPS — “And history has been made.”
Those were the words of Kamloops Mayor Ken Christian as council voted unanimously to issue a business license to British Columbia’s first retail recreational cannabis store.
The one and only legal cannabis store in B.C. will officially open Wednesday morning.
“It means we do a good job and we’re open for business,” said Christian. “We have had time and we have had staff that have been particularly interested in this file and they have guided council and the community in the public consultation that it takes to get you to this stage.”
