Vancouver Police staying out of marijuana debate

Kash Heed’s former workplace –for nearly three decades– is staying out of the debate on whether marijuana should be legalized and taxed.

Sgt. Randy Fincham says that’s not something Vancouver Police can comment about.

“It is a federal, federal legislation you’d be looking at and that’d be something referred to either Kash Heed or the federal government to comment on.”

Heed has been speaking for de-criminalization… saying 31 years in law enforcement has shown him police efforts to kill the often-violent marijuana drug trade have failed. 

The Liberal MLA for Vancouver-Fraserview and former solicitor general is not seeking re-electon in May.
