For the third time in 13 days,  this house on Quince Street has been raided by police. 

The search warrant was executed last evening,  four  females, and two males  were arested inside the home. Police say they seized crack cocaine along with some property they believe to be stolen.

The investigation continues, and charges are expected under the controlled drugs and substances act.

Looks like this is going to be easy if people do not change their place of business.
Very slow learners.Good job by the RCMP, but what is it the owner/s don't quite get here?
If it is owned by the creeps that got busted 3 times and not a landlord,this house should be seized.
Maybe it should be anyway.
Frustrating job for the cops!
Tear the house down like Surrey does
Not that easy.....
They should have a law that allows governments to sieze houses where drug crimes have been committed.
There should be a law that allows the government to seize companies where an employee has defrauded a customer.

;-)
No deterant, no penalty, no fear, no consequence's, no problem. Chester
I think Chester's post (very clearly) says it all.

It is truly very sad our elected politicians (up until now anyways) have chosen to let our justice system deteriorate to the point where it is now.

Hopefully in future elections the electorate will vote for the people who want to bring back the concept of law and order in this country
Too many bleeding hearts - the concept of law and order doesn't fit in with their sophisticated closed loop thinking of excuses for everything.

Precisely what I said diplomat. Too many bleeding hearts. Get tough on crime.

Tear down the houses which are used by dope dealers.

Close the businesses which employ frauds.

Tear down the retail stores that allow shoplifters.

Impound the vehicle's that park in a no parking zone (oops... I guess we already do that)

Anyway, that ought to get everyone into the spirit of due diligence.
Owl, do you own some of these crack shacks that keep getting busted? Is it alright to sell drugs to get our children hooked? What do you suggest we should do? I think if they are busted twice the houses should be taken down (razed) or the city should confiscate and sell them. We have to get these lowlifes out of our neighbourhoods. Bleeding hearts get no sympathy from me.
It seems that duffer and charles have a solid ..."throw them in jail and all problems will be solved" mentality. It does sound pretty darn simple and if that process worked the US would have a far lower crime rate than we do. Tell me duffer and charles, have you looked at those stats lately?

There are clearly some people who should be kept in prison for a long long time but a general law and order, lock them up and throw away the key approach fails to look at ways to solve the crime problems at the source. Unless you deal with the root of the problem, like dandilions, the problem will keep coming back.
Interesting! And can you identify please what in your opinion the root of the problem is?

Oh darn, you mean you want me to actually "think" here? I will put some thoughts out for discussion, and somehow I think that I might get a bit of that :-)
A couple of questions:
1) why do people get into drugs in the 1st place
2) drugs include alcohol, so why do places like "crack houses" not develope around alcohol consumption?
3) If drug laws are meant to keep the weak from abusing themselves, are those laws successful?

Every simple idiotic plan works until you put people into the picture.

What do you do if buddy is selling drugs downtown, seize the sidewalk ? Or maybe the whole block ?

Now you know why we have such a big problem, because there are so many stupid ideas floating around, and no real solid concrete plan.

I should call these posts,
"The 5 minute plan to cure the world of all social problems."

Good work by the police, once again.
