Good work drug team. Keep up the good work!Merry Christmas to the hard working RCMP.
Another useless member of society grooming more future useless members. Sad world we live in.
“While officers were searching the home, a number of persons attended the residence looking to purchase drugs.” Now what happened to these folks? Did the cops stand in the window and wave at them? Glad they had a decent “bust” but the wheel will just keep on turning. I think Canada in general has to relook at the justice system in regards to drugs. This fellow had been arrested and is already out, he now has to amp up his sales to pay for the fines he will most likely get and his jail time, well that will most likely be short enough, or hell, maybe none.
Portugal has a plan and it is working. It would work here also but there are too many ‘knee-jerk’ conservatives who would not like the idea of actually rehabilitating people. Besides; it does not factor into all the business that lawyers, judges,guards,prison builders, etc. would lose out on.
