A marijuana dispensary could be coming to Esquimalt along the 500-block of Admirals Road between Esquimalt Road and Lyall Street.

 

Alternative Aromatics Ltd., which currently operates a dispensary in Victoria's Quadra Village area, has applied to rezone a 1,250 square foot retail space to permit the sale of cannabis.

Clashing provincial and city rules frost pot shop

"... provincial rules that require pot shops to be hidden behind frosted glass ..."

Contrast this to, say, the Tudor House Liquor Store.

The hypocrisy hangs acrid in the air.

Contrast this with tobacco products which all have to be hidden from view.

Contrast storage area with entire store.

Products may have to be hidden, but vision glass and window displays are permitted.

If all you're selling is marijuana products then I suppose all need to be hidden, just like all tobacco products.

Funny, last I knew, Tudor House is in Esquimalt, which is a district different than Victoria.

Perhaps the province looks at pot more like tobacco.

I think that the main clashing rule is the one that requires pot shop owners to disclose their owners and pass criminal record checks. The City never required that and my guess is that most shops don’t meet that new standard.
