Not all in the VLA are they? Right in the heart of another elitist neighbourhood..tsk,tsk.

It costs more to maintain them homes.

You would be amazed by how many middle class families enhance their income that way.

I really don't care which neighborhood has grow-ops or dealers. I hope they catach all the pot heads in this town. Get rid of the scum!!

The persons caught for this will probably claim he was growing it for recreational purposes................

Not being an electrician or ninny, I wouldn't dare start messing around with my homes fuse box. For some reason I'm kinda scared of that good ol' 220 bare wire. AND that's the one that comes FROM my fuse box. Kinda reminds me of a death wish scenario. But of course if I was an electrician I would think "no big deal". Still...

Teleological!

And Northern Health hands out free needles, crack pipes and condoms to all the drug users out there... at tax payers expense.

Sooooo? What part of 'free' are we having a problem with Free Enterprise???

Why is always odd numbers like 1299 plants. Is there a different level of punishment if you do less than 1300 plants?

BATMAN, didn't you know that all of the grow-ops in PG only supply weekend smokers? LOL.

Wow. Somebody's got some jealousy issues.

"What's with the charge of "Theft of Telecommunication Services"? Electrical power is not a telecommunication service."

Actually it is. Here is a document explaining its relevance under the CCC:

http://www.robic.ca/publications/Pdf/222-03LPG.pdf

Taken from the document: "Theft of telecommunication service will occur when any person, in a
fraudulent or malicious manner, or without colour of right, (1) uses, consumes
or abstracts electricity or gas, or causes it to be wasted or diverted;"

At first glance it appears to be one of those absurdities in the law.

In the section quoted above from the Criminal Code of Canada, the definition of telecommunication is:

"any transmission, emission or reception of signs, signals, writing, images or sounds or intelligence of any nature by wire, radio, visual or other electromagnetic system."

The operative words consistent with all the others in the definition are images, sounds, intelligence.

Standard power transmission provides none of that.

Seems to me that it is time to modernize the Code unless someone can explain the rationale in writing it in that fashion.

Very curious.

Elitist neighborhood? Sounds like a comment from a commie. I look at North Meadows and see middle class homes, presumably occupied by middle class people, and here is the salient fact:
People who work for a living could afford to live in North Meadows.
What ever, it serves as a reminder that dopes can grow weed in your neighborhood too, regardless of class or status.
metalman.

North Meadow, elitist?

I thought the elite lived in a 5,000+sf post modern, dormer ecessive, vinyl clad edifice with a minimum of 5 acres outside the City to avoid urban elitist taxes.

And give them an opportunity to grow some recreational pot undetected using geothermal energy.

gus: standard power transmission is emission and reception of signal by wire.
