I was misinformed, it was actually the cannabis club on Johnson she was trying to get service at. That one looks pretty sketchy so the story makes sense in that respect. The Quadra one looks nicer than most doctors' offices.
I have been a client of the Johnson St Club for 11 years. Just because a place looks "sketchy" doesn't mean the people who work there are "sketchy. The Johnson St Club staff are polite, knowledgeable, experienced, and kind. There are several programs in-house to assist people of low or fixed income. The staff take their responsibility very seriously. The clientele are kind and respectful of one another. I have waited in line with lawyers, doctors, seniors, businessmen and women. Your 80 yr old grandmother could do a lot worse my friend.
There are numerous ways to consume cannabis and the Johnson St Club carries a variety of edibles as well as leaf. There are obviously many people working behind the scenes to bring pain relief to Victorians who suffer.
I have met a lot of clean cut attractive people in my life who were complete douchebags. Just because someone has long hair or a few tattoos doesn't make them rude, bad person or uneducated.
Personally, I would rather do business with an organization that has been working in the community for many years than a start up operation with a fancy showroom.
Ted Smith who manages the Johnson St Club or Ted's Books has been fighting the good and hard fight for the legalization of medical pot for years and the struggle continues. If not for Ted Smith these other pot shops would not exist.
