REACTION: 'CANADIANS ARE SHOCKED BY THIS BRUTALITY'
Attorney-General Geoff Plant said the tragedy should dispel any doubts
people might have about the dangerous nature of marijuana-growing operations.
"I think there is an attitude that is part of our culture in British
Columbia that thinks that a grow-op is just your neighbour making a couple
of bags of marijuana for some of his friends," Plant said. "Whether that
was ever true -- 20 or 30 years ago -- it's sure not true today."
"It is with profound sadness that I confirm that four members of the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police were killed today in service to our country. It is
an unprecedented and unspeakable loss."
- - RCMP Commissioner Giuliano Zaccardelli
"Canadians are shocked by this brutality, and join me in condemning the
violent acts that brought about these deaths. This terrible event is a
reminder of the sacrifice and bravery of the men and women who serve in our
national police force, and of the dangerous circumstances which they often
confront, in order to make Canada a safer place."
- - Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin
