Van Sun says Cronos, others told end is near for 4/20

The Vancouver Sun reports in its Thursday edition that Parks Board commissioner Tricia Barker says that Vancouver's 4/20 event is coming to an end, predicting this year will be the last in a city park. The Sun's David Carrigg writes that Ms. Barker said plans to bring a big music act -- Cypress Hill -- to this year's 4/20 party at Vancouver's Sunset Beach was the first thing working against the event. "It's gone now from being a protest to a festival and I think they were foolish to do this because it makes our point stronger, that it's not a protest," Ms. Barker said. On top of that, she pointed out that by this time next year the provincial government's Community Safety Unit, which is charged with closing illegal cannabis vendors, plus Vancouver Police and federal authorities, will be more active with enforcement. "Everyone is getting used to the new laws, with another year under their belt they just won't be allowing all the illegal sales that happen" at 4/20. She added, "By next year they will be ready and there will be no permitted seller of cannabis at this event." 4/20 organizers take fees from about 300 vendors in order to cover costs. "The bottom line is it's legal now and you can't smoke in a park."
