Join ABLE BC and Thrive Advisors for an informative webinar exploring the immediate and long-term benefits of a 1 km separation requirement between licensed cannabis retailers. We'll look at why this policy matters for independent retailers, how it can help support a more sustainable and competitive retail environment, and the role local governments play in shaping cannabis retail policy.

What to expect: A 20-minute presentation from Thrive Advisors, followed by an open Q&A.
