RCMP ATTENTION ON DRUGS WELCOME

To the Editor,

Re: "'White team' targets drugs, Jan. 10.

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.
