‘There’s been a significant change in the size and scope of the event. … It’s a commercial venture now.
John Coupar said he will introduce an ‘urgent’ motion at Monday’s board meeting telling staff to contact organizers of next week’s 4/20 cannabis event and “request a cancelation” of a planned performance by hip-hop stars Cypress Hill. The intent is “an effort to control crowd size and possible damage to Sunset Beach Park,” as been the unsanctioned site of Vancouver’s 4/20 in recent years.
The band confirmed is was coming to 4/20 with a poster for the event on their Twitter account with the message: “Come blaze with us.” “There’s been a significant change in the size and scope of the event,” Coupar said. “It’s a commercial venture now.”
