| Vancouver pot cafe closes doors for good CTV.ca News Staff | CTV.ca | October 6, 2004 The controversial Vancouver cafe that had been openly selling Marijuana has surrendered its business licence and closed its doors for good. [Zilosnote: Im guessing there was an agreement with Gwilt to surrender the licence so the courts would go easy on her charges, which is understandable with the charges she's facing.] The owners of Da Kine cafe were scheduled to appear at a hearing Wednesday, where three city councillors would hear arguments for and against keeping the cafe open. But the city of Vancouver says the operators have surrendered the licence and closed the premises. It's expected the scheduled hearing will be cancelled. [Zilosnote: yup, was watching CPAC today thinking it was gonna be on but it wasn't, later found this news article, showing what I didn't wanna see ]Gwilt's lawyer Jason Gratl said his client surrendered her business licence "with great sadness and regret,'' adding that Da Kine "was a project she believed in.'' The Da Kine cafe garnered national attention last month when it was raided by police, following media reports highlighting the pot sales. Owner carol Gwilt and seven other employees were charged after police seized $63,000, another $1,700 US, nine kilograms of Marijuana, some hashish and 300 cookies baked with hash or Marijuana. Gwilt was released on bail with a promise to the court she would meet certain conditions, including staying away from Marijuana. A week later police stopped Gwilt's vehicle and arrested her again on allegations of Marijuana possession and breaching her bail conditions.
