GIVING CRIMINALS A "HEADS UP" Let me get this straight. Instead of sending, oh, I don't know, the police, the Liberals are suggesting that the power company simply shut off electricity to houses that are suspected of growing marijuana? So if, by chance, you are a grow operator, I suppose if your electricity gets shut off, you might then realize that the police are probably on the way? Oh yes, brilliant suggestion by the government: Let's give the criminals in the province a "heads-up." It's too bad that Mr. McGuinty couldn't have given the rest of us in the province the same courtesy prior to taking power. I'm sure many of us would like to have had a "heads up" that his commitments and promises weren't exactly all that true. T. Brazeau, Ottawa (Many would have pulled the plug) - --- MAP posted-by: Derek
