Sunshine Coast RCMP reaffirm that they'll enforce marijuana laws

The commander of the Sunshine Coast RCMP says when it comes to selling cannabis outside the existing federal regulations, they will clamp down.

One dispensary in Sechelt is taking clients and distributing information at its storefront location, and another group has been discussing plans to open in Gibsons.

During a regular update for Gibsons Council, Staff Sergeant Vishal Mathura said he has no option to exercise any discretion.

Mathura also told Councillors taking action against dispensaries is expensive, and can draw resources away from other police activities.

Oceanside RCMP recently shut down a dispensary in Parksville,  one person is facing charges.
