Anyone have any idea how the HA in BC fit into the legal weed game over in Canada?

Seems like those guys have been moving weed forever, the one guy whacked in this was an HA, doubt the street level guys or gangs are positioned in that market, but the big HA gotta be involved?

It’s a interesting racket, because the cops 👮‍♀️ are so involved, how can any crook actually trust a cop IMO!!!
