“We keep it dry”
Yes, it was the Cannabis Act that legalized marijuana four months ago. And it was a “Cannabis Act search warrant” that Sunshine Coast RCMP used Feb. 5 to bust a grow-op in West Sechelt and seize more than 2,000 plants. The problem, of course, is that legal pot is supposed to come from government-sanctioned growers, or be limited to four plants per household. At the very least, the growers got their arithmetic wrong. See story page 3. RCMP PHOTO
