LANDLORDS TO PAY FOR POT
Chilliwack, B.C., is poised to bring in a bylaw that would fine
landlords $10,000 if they don't notice tenants have set up marijuana
growing operations, CBC.ca reports.
Landlords say the bylaw would unfairly penalize them for being duped
by unscrupulous renters.
By contrast, most marijuana growers are fined just $1,200 when
they're caught -- and police say many consider that just a cost of
doing business.
