"RCMP say the plants could have produced between 2.5 million and 5 million marijuana cigarettes."

Way too funny.
Imagine how wonderful things would have been if they simply legalized the stuff.

Apparently the charged individuals are walking around as of now. But they have to appear in court in October. Might take the cops that long to empty the greenhouses. Then they can start the paperwork. And I don't mean rolling papers. Ha ha ha!
