I was taken back when I heard on the news about cannabis businesses complaining that our B.C. government isn't doing enough to promote destination vacations for cannabis users.
The gist I got is we the taxpayers are already doing this with the wine industry. I question should taxpayer dollars be used to promote private businesses? If we are, should we be doing this for beer and alcohol?
Canadian businesses pay one of the lowest tax rates in the G20. Most taxpayers don't get the write off all the items that business people get to. I am of the opinion that these businesses should get together and pool their resources and do their own advertising.
