Per your first linked source, that is the Canadian Foundation for Drug Policy. The article was originally published in the Kelowna Daily Courier and, presumably, reprinted with permission from that newspaper. No copyright violation here—none with respect to Wikipedia, which is what we care about. It's common for newspapers to permit non-profits and companies to re-publish their own news articles. Regarding your second linked source, that ''may'' be more useful as it provides important and substantive background information on this otability|notable British Columbia gang, but I haven't yet integrated it into the article. I've added a number of sources, all of which establish its otability|notability in a significant way. We're up to 7-10 sources, but more are definitely possible
