Vancouver? (Legality, progress, coffee shops?)

[Voge]

So my college buddies and I have been planning a summer road trip to Vancouver and one of the main draws was the quaisi legalization of cannabis in Canada (specifically Vancouver). Ive been searching for updated legal news but most of the articles refer to busts done in late 2004. Can anyone from the area give me any information? Are their operating coffee shops? Is legalization progress being made? And are their any similiar options in Quebec? Thanks for any responces,

looks good! Do they sell actual pot- or only smoking supplies and accessories?

[slipnslide087]

....but its bring your own? (sorry to keep bugging you!)

Wow, slip is just full of information. (sorry I'm not.)

Look up Blunt Brothers.

Hey thank you! They look good, but I still cant ascertain (from their website) if they actually sell pot (like a coffee shop in AMS). Is there anyone from the area who knows?
Thanks

it doesnt look like its gona get legalized any time soon, with the edmonton shootings and all, and around here in Richmond(city right below vancouver), our schools have cousellers running all over the fucking place trying to bust dealers, so anti weed shit is pretty low right now

[slipnslide087]

you can buy in there

Thank you SlipnSlide, thats more of what I was looking for.
Sorry to hear that legalization is backsliding (and more so for the shootings )
