| RCMP bust what may be the largest grow-op in province's history
PRINCE GEORGE (NEWS1130) - A Vancouver man is one of three people arrested after RCMP discovered what they believe could be the largest grow-op in B.C. history. About 18 thousand pot plants were found in 20 separate green houses. Two industrial sized heaters and two power generators were also seized on the out of the way property near Prince George.
Mounties say the drugs would have been worth about $2.2 million if they hit the streets. The only purpose of the property appeared to be the production of marijuana, and those tending to the crops were housed in tents.
RCMP are still looking for the property owner. http://www.news1130.com/news/local/a...ince-s-history |

If you read the article about the Hope bust, they said mention at the end that they found another 4,600 plants in a bust in Kelowna..
Sad day for BC Bud'ers =P

I'm not in favor or legalization, not particularly against the idea either. I know it's never going to fly because of the USA and their pull on Canadian politics. But... are there any places where legalization has helped?
I mean, that's police resources that could go towards busting down the doors of the local gangs, hunting down repeat offenders on the run and paying for more staff.
