An LCBO and a consumption site is not the same. You don't consume the liqour at the LCBO and generally aren't under the influence when there. I may be wrong but it feels like you are trying to compare them as similar services.

The difference is a safe injection site attempts to provide harm reduction and access to addiction treatment, while an LCBO retail location simply provides harm and addiction.
