RCMP seize 400 marijuana plants across Island



Fri, 09/03/2010 - 11:21

 Over the last few days, RCMP members from various districts in

partnership with members from Charlottetown, Summerside and Kensington

Police Services  seized over 400 marijuana plants from various wooded

areas following aerial searches conducted over Prince Edward Island. 

 

The "L" Division RCMP Drug Section,  thanked the public for their support, and for providing tips

about marijuana grow-operations to the police. The RCMP say marijuana production

poses a significant threat to public health and safety, and the public

is encouraged to report suspicious behaviour to local police or

anonymously to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477).

 

This initiative is part of the RCMP's ongoing commitment to reducing

crime and creating safe homes and safe communities.

are you kidding me, maybe they should actually do a study and find the benefits of this product."The RCMP say marijuana production
poses a significant threat to public health and safety" then why is it leagl to grow and pocess it for medical purposes as long as you have the medical card. I am sure it it posed that much of a threat the government would not make it legal to do so.
This is one of the biggest waste of man hours for a product that is used in all different forms for all kinds of products.
If they would regulate and tax it like alcohol or tobacco there would not be any issue
