Two cannabis regimes This quote sums up the Canadian Cannabis mess.
Damerla has previously voted against cannabis stores in Mississauga twice, most recently in June 2021.
“What is prompting me is the fact that I have an illegal cannabis store that has been operating in my ward since 2019. For years I've not been able to shut it down. Six times the police put chains on the store and six times it reopened. So it is a surreal situation where I cannot stop an illegal cannabis store from operating but I am stopping legal cannabis stores from operating. That makes no sense,” Damerla told CP24 this week.
