RCMP CAN CHECK LICENCE STATUS OF GROWERS
The RCMP's suggestion that its members don't know who has a medical
cannabis production licence until they are at the door with a warrant is false.
For years police have been able to, and regularly do, call a 24 hour
hotline operated by Health Canada to check licence status on a person
or residence.
If members don't do this, they are remiss in their duties. Don't
blame the sick for the RCMP's decision to waste time on medical marijuana.
