I have now sold roughly 30 grams of cocaine in the City of Vancouver. I am in possession of roughly another 40 grams of cocaine which I expect to sell.
Since the Vancouver Police Department has indicated no intention to intervene in my sales despite the above information being made plainly known to them, possibly because the constitutional defence that I have given (Appendix A, starting on page 10, of the Canada Interactive Legislature Charter) may be legitimate, I have applied for a business license from the City of Vancouver, under the company name: Interactively Licensed Cocaine Sales. I have been told that the city will not be issuing this license.
If you would prefer to see authorities act to prevent my cocaine sales, you can report me to the City of Vancouver for selling cocaine without a business license. You can find a letter that has been written up for you to make this report (just add your return address and your signature) by clicking here.
If the City does not respond to your complaint, then you may wish to get in touch with the Forward Together Party because they may wish to make an election issue out of this when they campaign for city council in 2026 against the ABC Party that presently occupies Vancouver City Hall. Perhaps they might wish to campaign on the promise of introducing some form of recall to Vancouver City legislation, for incompetency or lack of accountability to City Council’s employers: the People of the City of Vancouver.
If the Forward Together Party also does not show interest in your complaint, then perhaps you might like to investigate why the two main contenders for Vancouver City Hall have no interest in reducing the horrific numbers of deaths in the opioid crisis that is killing more people in Canada than Covid-19 at the height of its contagiousness.
Consider the possibility that the actual rate of serious physical harm being caused to cocaine users by their usage of this drug is comparable (in numbers of casualties) to drivers’ licenses or amusement park rides. If statistics were to show this to be true, then isn’t it a crime against users to prevent them from acquiring and enjoying the fulfilment of their recreational interests? Even if the harm rate is more serious, like for instance comparable to the rates of injuries in hang gliding or skydiving, these dangerous recreations are legal as long as the participants sign a waiver form indicating that they have given sober contemplation to the risks associated with this form of recreation. Shouldn’t comparable rates of danger have comparable legal requirements? Shouldn’t cocaine purchase then be allowed, but with similar requirements for clear waiver forms indicating knowledge of the dangers?
Perhaps the government has not published any statistics on the actual harm rates caused to recreational cocaine users. Perhaps the government knows that if these numbers were made public, then it would become apparent that making this drug illegal has been a crime against humanity by governments. Back when cocaine was made illegal after having been casually available in Canada for decades with no apparent drastic excess in major casualties, perhaps the government didn’t make the statistics on harm rates publicly available because they had reasons for wanting to criminalize cocaine use that had nothing, nothing at all, to do with reducing some dangerous harm to society being caused by a drug that was publicly available in some highly commercialized and widely enjoyed beverages.
But if someone puts their signature on this letter and sends it to the City of Vancouver licensing department, I will be very grateful. Paying a fine for selling cocaine without a business license in the city despite the Vancouver police and federal prosecution service having not bothered to show any adverse reaction to my cocaine sales makes a public statement that I would be proud to stand on.
4,578 people are reported to have died from toxic drugs in 2021 and 2022 in British Columbia. This is not because of cocaine. It is because of poisonous toxins added into cocaine and other drugs. If a responsibly tested cocaine supply is made available to users, then the rational expectation is that the numbers of deaths will drastically reduce. What goal is more important than that?
what kind of a society (or person) is willing to throw those with cocaine use disorder under the bus to make a moral/political philosophical point?
Thank you very much for your concern about the harms that drug users can be susceptible to. We take this very seriously.
Any person with cocaine use disorder who wishes to purchase cocaine from one of our licensees is required to have an addictions counsellor present for each sale.
You can find the full regulations that govern our licensees right here: http://issociety.org/wp-content/uploads/Commerce-Charter-drugs-and-substances.pdf
If you have any suggestions to provide an even more secure counselling program for people with cocaine use disorder who wish to purchase products from our licensees, it would be highly appreciated.
