DRUGS: MA AND PA AREN'T DRUG LORDS
Dear Editor,
The marijuana grow op hysteria currently evident in Langley will
result in more than red tape, with the media habit of sensationalizing
most growers as drug lords [Drug lords tangled in red tape, Feb. 7
Opinion, Langley Advance], when the plain truth is that most growers
are mom and pop operations contributing heavily to their province and
municipalities in an "industry" more important than anything except
maybe the petroleum/natural gas receipts, also from the USA.
