Briefing

In 2003, across all of Ontario, police seized 232,000 cannabis plants.

In both Quebec and British Columbia that year, police seized much larger amounts.

On December 2, 2004, police in Manitoba raided a Winnipeg warehouse just a few blocks away from police headquarters. Inside, officers found Canada’s second-biggest grow op: 10,000 cannabis plants, with a police-estimated value of $11 million.

Many more raids would follow. Year after year after year, raid after raid after raid. To cannabis farmers and dealers, raids were a cost of doing business, added to the price paid by the end consumer. When one criminal group was jailed, another took its place.

Raids barely, if at all, affect supply.
