That totals up to 655,000 Canadian dollars. The source of the drugs is unknown, as is the owner of them. The rcmp executed a search warrant after receiving a tip about a possible drug stash, and has not arrested any suspects or released a list of suspects. This goes to show that though we look like a stable country with few problems, Canada as a whole has a large drug problem, even in it's smaller cities, like Grande Prairie, with a population of only 63,000 people, which pales in comparison to large cities like Vancouver or even Edmonton. We are by no means a perfect country, our problems just aren't publicized.

I wonder if the legalization of marijuana will lead to the increase or decrease of heavier drug use - or not affect this at all.
