...are wanting in this article. Most of the article is devoted to a general history of liquor regulation in Canada, with special attention paid to British Colombia. It's not clear why there is a section on marijuana distribution. More information about BC Liquor Stores is in Liquor Distribution Branch and perhaps the articles should be merged. 162.89.0.47 (talk) 18:16, 13 October 2017 (UTC) EricReply

Bc liquor stores are a part of the BC liquor distribution branch and are therefore part of a branch of a government ministry, at the moment that ministry is the attorney general. Craigk109 (talk) 17:58, 18 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
