VCBC

VCBC The VCBC’s primary mandate is to provide safe access to medicinal cannabis products As well as acting as a dispensary, the VCBC is a community service provider.

The VCBC’s primary mandate is to provide safe access to medicinal cannabis and cannabis related products for its membership. Our onsite consumption room is a safe and comfortable environment for our members to consume their medicine, while connecting with a diverse group of people in similar situations. Our onsite consumption room is wheelchair accessible and has a Hospital Grade HEPA filtration system. A community posting board and news board allow members to connect and stay up to date with c a n n a b i s related news. It is a safe place where everyone is welcome and free from discrimination based on age, sex, gender, race, religion or for any other reason. Through activism and education we strive to further the legalization and regulation of c a n n a b i s from the municipal to the federal level. We assist both members and the public to help navigate the ACMPR application process and provide the required paperwork to any who ask.
“It is unsettling to contemplate persons with AIDS or who are undergoing Cancer treatment being forced to go down to the drug emporium which operates in the downtown core of Victoria to acquire their marijuana from persons who are interested only in selling them drugs of unknown quality for profit. But on January 3 2002, but for compassion clubs such as Mr. Smith’s that was their only alternative.”

We are having a potluck at the party and are hoping to have as many as 100 people there for it!

If you plan on coming for the potluck but are unsure of what to bring, here are a couple of tips.

1) Please do not bring too much food. We do not have full access to the kitchen and do not have storage space there. If everyone brings enough food for themselves and one other person, then we will have plenty of food for everyone and will not have too much leftovers to deal with.

2) Paper will be provided to write down a list of ingredients. There will be meat, vegan and vegetarian food for everyone so just bring something you like and do not worry about the special diet of others.

3) Julia is making a big infused carrot cake for everyone, so if you are bringing desert, do not bring carrot cake! We expect more deserts than main dishes, so if you are trying to decide between the two, please make a main dish.

4) If you struggle with cooking or preparing food, simply buying some crackers or cheese or veggies or meat or a jar of pickles to cut up and put on a plate is totally fine. Simple dishes are often the best. This is not a cooking contest.
