80 kilos of cocaine seized in Ontario
The Hamilton Hammer is reporting that "A 10-month investigation into a huge $67 million drug ring has seen men from Brampton, Hamilton, Milton, Niagara Falls, Port Colborne and other Ontario locations charged." 80 kilos of cocaine were seized along with pot and tobacco. No one cares about the pot or tobacco but the cocaine is significant. That makes a difference.

The value of the pot FAR outweighs the value of the 80kg of cocaine.

$64,000,000 worth of pot.
Yes it does but pot and tobacco are legal, cocaine is not. Pot and tobacco doesn't wreak havoc on communities like crack and crystal meth does. It's not about the money.
DeleteTo me it feels like the busts keep getting bigger. I wonder does that mean we are winning or loosing the war on drugs. 🤔
ReplyDeleteThey are getting bigger in all the other provinces. Not in BC. It's not a matter of winning the war on drugs. It's a matter of fighting the good fight and resisting it instead of becoming an accomplice by promoting it.
