The solution to B.C.’s months-long teachers’ dispute is just a few puffs away, according to a pot activist who made his point by mailing marijuana to the premier this week.

Dana Larsen sent a bag of Purple Kush to Christy Clark’s office Thursday using Canada Post, noting the tax windfall from legalization could satisfy at least some of teachers’ demands.

“I wanted to remind the premier that legalized marijuana would be worth about $200 million a year to B.C.’s coffers, about half of that in savings in the justice system and half of that in taxation revenue,” the former federal NDP candidate said.

“She should be standing up for our number one crop: marijuana.”

According to Larsen, Canada Post marked the package as delivered at 9:29 a.m. Friday.

Clark’s Office declined a request to comment on the stunt.

“To be honest, I know you have a job to do, but we don’t have anything to add on this,” Sam Oliphant said in a statement.

Larsen said B.C. would do well to follow in the footsteps of Colorado, which legalized recreational use and has seen tax revenues increase every month since stores opened in January.

In the short-term, marijuana could also help the two sides in B.C.’s teachers’ dispute see eye-to-eye, he added.

“It might help with some of those late-night negotiating sessions,” he said. “Sharing a few joints could help to lower some tensions and get everybody thinking on the same page.”
