I thought the idea was to undermine organized crime. With all the restrictions and half-measures they're putting in place, the illegal pot market is hardly going to be impacted at all.

Yup. This is exactly why I'm calling that idea stupid. General government incompetence means an "AWCB" store system would guarantee the black market continues to thrive. But also, weed sales is not an essential government or public service. Let private industry deal with it.
