BC cannabis company says they got Health Canada approval to sell cocaine
A B.C. cannabis company says it has approval from Health Canada to include cocaine as a substance the company can legally possess, produce, sell and distribute.
Adastra Labs in Langley, B.C., said it has been granted an amendment to its dealer license to “interact” with up to 250 grams of cocaine (nearly nine ounces), to import coca leaves to manufacture and synthesize the substance. It said it received its approval from Health Canada on Feb. 17.
“Harm reduction is a critically important and mainstream topic, and we are staying at the forefront of drug regulations across the board,” Adastra CEO Michael Forbes said in a release.
“We proactively pursued the amendment to our Dealer’s License to include cocaine back in December 2022.
“We will evaluate how the commercialization of this substance fits in with our business model at Adastra in an effort to position ourselves to support the demand for a safe supply of cocaine.”
The company said it also is allowed to possess, produce, sell and distribute up to 35 ounces of psilocybin and psilocin.
On Thursday, Global News asked B.C. Premier David Eby for his thoughts on Health Canada’s decision to make the amendment for the Langley-based lab.
Eby was shocked to hear the news.

This is what needs to happen, you don’t choose to have an addiction and the streets are flooded with toxic drugs, you can’t get rid of them you can’t avoid them or make them disappear, provide safe drugs. They’re going to find them no matter if it’s safe or not let them have a chance at knowing what they’re taking and avoiding the risk of overdose due to not knowing what they’re taking.
Our health ministry is very concern of how many beer and alcohol beverages People consume Health ministry b c oh it’s a good ideal to sell cocaine 😂😂😂 What the fluffy cat Is going on here
yeah, im sure all of this was coincidental… would be interesting to find out who the biggest investors are and who they are connected to….
Always be aware of the words when the government says its for your safety
No fun if the government is our competition. smh we ain’t the cartel Canada
Yea no. This is out of hand. As a recovered addict, this is redicilous.
Cocaine was banned for Big Pharma.
It needs to be legalized.
It’s being called a, “hard drug” by those who know it is a safe drug.
The stigma and propaganda has been so bad many people do think cocaine is too dangerous to use but the truth is that proper dosing of cocaine is salubrious and an exceedingly helpful medicine for humans.
The coca leaf was banned for people who sell altitude sickness drugs. It’s so evil what our government is doing.
This is NUTS. When do we get one in the states??? I LOVE COCAINE!!!
Smart⚡️🛸🧲
I agree/disagree with this I agree that we should make cocaine in Vancouver legally to stop the spread of fentanyl and cut laced drugs but I disagree that they should openly sell it I think that’s wrong they should provide it only in mental rehab facilities to lower the intake of the drug for the user at a controlled setting until they get a super low dose then quit cold turkey that’s what worked for me when I quit Kratom and alcohol and when I got close to quitting nicotine that’s what I did as well
hohohoho hahahahaha hohohoh hahahaha hohoho hahahaha, who i am blaming to ? i am a coca cola addict myself 😛
We’re all asking the same thing. What the hell is going on? !!!!
HOW?!😮
British Columbia looks more like Columbia itself.
Who cares if people are dies it’s all about money
by donation forsure haha
agree..this should be done a long time ago before toxic drugs flood the street and kill people also by legalize drugs means make dealer nothing to sell
Legalize medical cocaine
the fact about drugs becoming legal is crazy
Where can I order?
Every1 in the comments are overdramatic af. Actling like cocaine wasn’t in coca-cola before, a 100 years ago. This generation is way too soft.
Some one needs to lock up Trudeau
Bad canada
hell yeah dude
I’m all for it!
Clean supply is good.
lets goooooo
i wouldn’t agree with this but if it is pharmaceutical is honna be a lot a lot a lot more safer and cleaner
i do not know about this may be pharmaceutical level is going yo be more safe but again i would not do this drugs evrn they become legal
This will encourage addicts to move to BC
The best and only solution
Legalise cannabis in the UK.
how much does the blackface drama bag get per gram?
all drugs should be legal. people are going to do drugs anyway, might as well tax and regulate them.
Mom pack the bags we moving to bc
I see the benefits of this, I use to smoke a lot of weed until it became legal.
I love some cannabis. I’ll pass on the white stuff though 😂
Omg. Gov selling it now
😂😂😂😂💚Lets have some X made as well when we are at it
the real question is why alcohol is legal
😂😂😂
Yea they are pushing for chaos.
wow this is NDP approved!!!
If you can’t beat them, join them, legalizing marijuana took all the criminals out of the game. People like their cocaine, so might as well get some tax dollars instead of giving it to the cartels
Lmao
So can we buy cocaine feom BC now?
Could they not just sell shrooms instead of that white powder that’s probably laced with fentanyl?
i’m just here to watch what happens
Don’t worry you’ll never see this in your lifetime
just give it away, problem solved
