Good to see the RCMP has set up a white team to combat Nanaimo drug dealers who deal in cocaine, crack cocaine, heroin, ecstasy and crystal meth. RCMP have, for the first time ever that I am aware of, separated this effort to combat these dangerous hard drugs, from the continued efforts of the existing "'green team', which is mandated to enforce marijuana infractions. At last, there may be some recognition creeping into law enforcement that there is a huge difference between a naturally growing benign weed and dangerous manufactured chemical drugs. Good on ya, Nanaimo RCMP - it's a start. John Volkovskis Nanaimo - --- MAP posted-by: Jay Bergstrom
