Kudos to Langford Mayor Stew Young and the West Shore RCMP for enforcing federal law and local bylaws and creating a level playing field for all businesses that want to set up in Langford. Until we have a change in federal regulations on marijuana distribution, the existing legal framework is in place and has to be complied with, regardless of "inconvenience" to consumers. Ignoring the laws for one industry undermines our legal system and is unfair to those that operate within it. Mayors and councils in Victoria and Vancouver should take note.
