Is BCALC acting within its jurisdiction in interpreting its policy on cannabis use?

British Columbia, Canada


The following excerpt is from Lorindale Holdings Ltd. v. B.C.A.L.C., 2001 BCSC 854 (CanLII):

BCALC submits that it acted within its jurisdiction in interpreting its policy, and that since it had broad authority to make the decision at issue, its decision must stand. BCALC relies on Maple Lodge Farms v. Government of Canada (1982), 1982 CanLII 24 (SCC), 2 S.C.R. 2.
